#Law experts have long said they expect the #Louisiana case to make its way to the #SCOTUS, testing the #conservative #court on the issue of #religion & #government.

In 1980, the #SupremeCourt ruled that a similar #Kentucky law violated the #EstablishmentClause of the US #Constitution, which says #Congress can “make no law respecting an establishment of religion.” The high court found that the law had no secular purpose but served a plainly #religious purpose.

The mandate has been touted by #Republicans, including #Trump, & marks one of the latest pushes by #conservatives to incorporate #religion into classrooms.

The ultra conservative #5thCircuit Court of Appeals’ order stems from a lawsuit filed last year by #parents of #Louisiana school #children from various #religious backgrounds, who said the #law violates #FirstAmendment language guaranteeing religious liberty & forbidding government establishment of religion.

#LeMonde's #leader today: "When #racism escalates to #farRight #terrorism"

"Behind #MarineLePen's respectable façade, the spread of the #RassemblementNational's #ideology, which has gained traction across much of the political spectrum, has fostered hostility toward #foreigners and incited tragic acts such as the murder of #HichemMiraoui."

"By viewing the tragedy solely through a #religious lens [one favors] the perspective preferred by all extremists."

Le Monde · When racism escalates to far-right terrorismBy Le Monde

In 3d world #America... today!

'Pastor' #Dillon #Awes said that the "solution" to #gay people is presented in the #Bible:
"They should be lined up against the wall and shot in the back of the head."

Any #fanaticism is wrong, #religious fanaticism the most dangerous.
(The rule that if a group finds itself facing a situation of extreme survival
it is good to eliminate those who start praying... has a reason to be)

"Pastor" (my ass) Awes should at least be thrown in jail for inciting murder.

The triumphal arch in the Basilica of St Paul Outside the Walls in Rome Italy. It is a mosaic featuring Christ in the middle flanked by four winged evengelists and the 24 elders of Revelation. Below are Peter on the right and Paul on the left.

Sunlight spills in thru a window and onto some of the wooden pews of the church of Santa Maria Nuova, a Romanesque church in Viterbo Italy. Murals depicting religious figures adorn the stone walls, adding a sense of reverence and antiquity to the scene. Processed in BW.

#Trump has proposed cutting spending on #CivilRights enforcement in #schools, work-study programs & services for #students from disadvantaged backgrounds. But one corner of the education budget he would boost: #CharterSchools [I wonder if this has something to do w/the #religious charter school case before #SCOTUS right now]. His budget proposal would increase federal support for new charter schools by $60 million, or about 8.3%.

#JohnRoberts said programs where #SCOTUS deemed #religious #schools eligible for playground #grants & school #vouchers were also “created & controlled by the state.”

He asked if the relevant test was whether the #school was “a creation & creature of the state? Because all of those were,” he said. “And we held it under the #FirstAmendment, you couldn’t exclude people because of their religious belief.”
