The panel discusses Louisiana's HB 71, a law mandating the display of the Ten Commandments in public classrooms. Christopher Diehr, the 2020 Louisiana Teacher of the Year, has filed a lawsuit against the statute, arguing it infringes on the separation of church and state.
Panelists explore the historical arguments for the law, noting a Supreme Court ruling recognizing the Ten Commandments' significance in American history but questioning the law's constitutionality and its implications for teachers and students of various faiths.
They express concern that the law pressures educators to promote religious doctrine and marginalizes non-Christian students. The conversation also touches on the historical context of religious influence in America and the challenges posed by this law in the education system.
The Non-Prophets, Episode 23.44.1 featuring Scott Dickie, Damien H, Kelley Laughlin and Stephen Harder
