Texas to Place Ten Commandments in Classrooms

Garrett Wedemire : Apr 12, 2023  Toddstarnes.com

"Fortunately, because of the Supreme Court last summer overturning some of the bad precedents, we are at a place where we once again can restore some of the basic moral values we used to teach kids, which includes once again posting copies of the Ten Commandments." – Tim Barton

Tim Barton, president of WallBuilders, told the "Todd Starnes Show" it's a "great idea."

Texas State Sen. Phil King (R) introduced a new bill in the Lone Star State to mandate the Ten Commandments be displayed in every public classroom.

Barton told host Todd Starnes this new legislation seems very logical.

"The Ten Commandments have been the basis of all morals for the Western civilization, for the Western world, really, since the inception of the Western world. And so, to me, it seems very logical. There's a lot of good historic and legal precedent for this as well. But certainly, from a commonsense perspective, this just makes sense to go back to telling kids basic notions of morality like don't kill other people," Barton told Starnes.

Barton also gave a short history lesson on the first textbooks printed in America, which contained over 40 questions about the Ten Commandments at the back of the book.

"It wasn't until 1980 when an activist Supreme Court determined that, you know, that's probably been enough of the Ten Commandments in classrooms. Let's not do that anymore. The 1980s, when activist judges said no more. Well, fortunately, because of the Supreme Court last summer overturning some of the bad precedents, we are at a place where we once again can restore some of the basic moral values we used to teach kids, which includes once again posting copies of the Ten Commandments."
