    Note to our resident Chinese water carriers:

    IN GOD WE TRUST.

    ...is STILL our national motto.

    It's taken almost 3,000 years, but by George - he's proved the existence of God. Right here on Gator Country!

    Are you arguing this subject without the least bit of knowledge about how religion got started? The Prophets explain GOD in most all legitimate man made religions. Religions we started by man using the groupings of scriptures written by these Prophets that explain GOD.

    Yes, and people explaining God, like in the ten commandments, is what religion is. Which is why the ten commandments, a guy explaining God's desire, are religion. It really isn't that hard to follow.

    Well, you should read Marvel comics and enlighten yourself that Thanos is the one true god.

    No, God is an entity explained by man made religion. The ten commandments aren't god either.

    So you need man made documents from religions to explain God?

    Prophets knew about GOD... therefore GOD predates the Prophets... and the religions that man made based on their writings. There is no conflict in that fact.

    Okay, so what does that have to do with the topic of this thread, which is placing a poster of a religious document in a classroom?

    So you lost focus? That the Ten Commandments are NOT RELIGIOUS AT ALL becasue they are the words of GOD... and they are not from some religious figure. There for the Ten Commandments are do not violate the separation of Church and State.
