lol....which "priestly rites" you silly sod?
Click to expand...

Keep the Sabbath hoiy
Instructions on how to worship God
No gods before me
Prohibitions against making idols.


^^That is not an ethical framework. That is a relic the priestly religion of the ancient Hebrews.
And if the goal is to instll ethics in children, the Ten Commandments is far from being the best way to do it.

......sexual "mores".......where is your argument, gnost?.....

Prohibitions against adultery and lust.

Prohibitions against murder and robbery.

^^That sounds more like a criminal code and a list of sexual mores, than it does a guide to virtuous and ethical behaviour appropriate for children to learn.

Saint Don, of the Party of Trump, got rid of the adultery and lust thing just like he did pedophilia. According to both Trump and his good friends Jeffrey Epstein and Jerry Falwell Jr, sex with whomever you like is a privilege of the white, male and wealthy. :thup:

You and your Christian Taliban allies are obsessed with putting an list of ancient Hebrew priestly rites, criminal code, and sexual mores on the wall of a third grade class.

I don't think public schools are in the business of taking sides in religion...
But if you are supposedly Christian, why don't you focues on something Jesus said in the New Testament, and something that really directly captures the ethical behaviour Jesus advocated, e.g., something from Beatitudes and the Sermon
Blessed are the pure of heart. Blessed are the peacemakers, Blessed are the merciful, Blessed are the persecuted, Blessed are the meek, give to the needy, do not judge others, and practice universal love.

on the other hand, it sounds like things children should grow up learning are wrong.....

the priestly code were the instructions on how to prepare for offering sacrifices.......

You're welcome to teach third grade MAGA children not to make idols, to keep the Jewish Sabbath holy, and to not commit adultery and covet their neighbor's spouse.

I think among liberal adults, that is a completely inadequate, and possibly bizarre, ethical framework to teach third graders.

Liberals can identify a better, and more appropriate, ethical framework appropriate to teach to third graders.

Children are learning by example more than they are learning by reading a list of ancient Hebrew law.

For example, one of your favorite words is CUNT!
When your grandkids hear you screaming CUNT! they are learning an unfortunate lesson.

White rightwing evangelicals seem to hold Trump in higher esteem than Jesus Christ.

I think Trump is an atheist who doesn't feel bound by any Judeo-Christian ethics, let alone any other ethical framework.


As for Ten Commandments, I really don't think laws against adultry, gainst making idols, and keeping the Jewish Sabbath holy are really an adequate or appropriate ethical framework to be teaching third graders.

Its hard to understand why toothless hillbilly MAGAs think it is.

If anything, children should be instilled with the virtues of compassion, nonjudgmentalism, nonviolence, universal love, the Golden Rule. Aka, pretty much everything found in the Sermon on the Mount, or in other ethical traditions.

I have not seen a single Christian among the Trumpers. They all move their lips claiming to be Christians, but they quickly prove they are not walking in the path of Jesus.

the depths of your stupidity knows no bottom.

The removal of anything (Quran, Torah, Bible, Ten Commandments, etc) is NOT a promotion of the other religions. It is making the space neutral or EQUAL for all religions. The opposite of promoting.

So you abandon your ethical principles only when you can be assured of anonymity.

That's almost like having no ethical principles at all.

Yes having the Ten Commandments in a school is exactly what you say.

I am not sure why you are making my point though.

I suspect you are so dumb you may not have realized you did though which is laughable.
