By David G Bonagura, Jr., The Catholic Thing - What sin hath Louisiana committed in mandating the Ten Commandments be displayed in every public school? According to the plaintiff in the newly minted suit Roake v. Brumley, Louisiana is harming children by making them think about God... The plaintiff stated, “The Ten Commandments displays required under state law will create an unwelcoming and oppressive school environment for children, like ours, who don’t believe in the state’s official version of scripture. We believe that no child should feel excluded in public school because of their family’s faith tradition.”
