The purpose of separation of church and state is to keep forever from these shores the ceaseless strife that has soaked the soil of Europe with blood for centuries. – James Madison
Every school child learns that the United States was founded on the fundamental proposition that government must not impose religion on the American people, though this does not deter fanatics from passing laws that fly in the teeth of this guiding principle.
Now we learn that Louisiana, among the most backwards states in the union, is likely to require the 10 Commandments be displayed in all public school and university classrooms.
Here’s an idea:
Give all descendants of slaves free college, with stipends, like they do in northern Europe.
Within a generation, we’ll have millions of young, highly educated black people, contributing to the work force at much higher levels than they are today.
We all admit that the MAGA base is composed of the most ignorant of Americans, but one has to think that even these people are losing their patience with Trump and the onslaught of catastrophes he’s bringing to the United States.
It’s hard to think of a bad trait that Trump doesn’t manifest.
He certainly has pettiness and vindictiveness nailed.
