Louisiana public schools will display 'In God We Trust' beginning this school year.

Public school students in Louisiana will see the motto “In God We Trust” when they return to class this year.

The law, first introduced in March 2018 as Senate Bill 224 by Democratic State Senator Regina Ashford Barrow, said that the way the motto was displayed would be “determined by each governing authority” but needed to be at least a paper sign. “This is our national motto. It’s also on our currency. So I think it’s really important that we ensure that young people understand the patriotic history of our country and how it was founded and its purpose,” Barrow said while discussing the bill in the Louisiana Senate chamber in April of 2018.

Louisiana is not the only state where public schools will be required to display the motto this year.

Hallelujah. Taking a stand for what we have based our whole nation on. GOD. If all else fails, return to what works.

Is Noah’s big ass boat going to be outside on the football field to lol ?

Because of course CHURCH ISN'T WORKING ! 🤣😁☻

There are a lot of bitter people on this thread. I’m guessing the overwhelming majority are from the “love trumps hate” crowd. God bless Louisiana.

cindyjacobs Mark the date..Now watch the Blessings Abound for Louisiana.

Good!

Teaching magic and fairy tales is a great way to cement that bottom 3 education ranking.

too bad the kids there won't be able to read it.

“Louisiana public schools will display national motto beginning this school year.” Fixed your sensationalized headline.

,All Others We Background Check!

Good.

Worry about educating your children and a slogan won’t change that.

Half the state is in danger of drowning and the science-denying theocrats are too busy forcing their religion onto everyone.

All schools should go back to this and more because God’s the only one that can save us now from this mess of a world.

How about, “I won’t think in your church, don’t pray in my school?”

Glad the state ranking 48th in education is taking the steps to fix it...

If they are going to do this they should allow students of other faiths to add the the god of their choice to the sign. So that the students who don’t believe in God aren’t left out there should also be a sign that says “In myself I trust.”

I always liked “in god we trust, everyone else pays cash”. 🙃

Thank You Louisiana!!!

That will stop shooters and make everyone special 🤣

Shariah law, Christian style! Very bad. Reverse course.

300 years of Enlightenment down the drain!

great idea. it should said....in ****GOD, AND DONALD TRUMP*****, we trust. my opinion....

Yay!! 🙏

Which god?

They should be fighting for a better education for the children in Louisiana. This BS isn’t going to help anybody

Separation of church and state! Everywhere! All the time!

What about 'In Buddha we trust'

Whose God?

Verguenza les deberia dar a estas profesores que hasta despues de multiples asaltos en escuelas, Están buscando de la protección de Dios. ley federal debería de ser en todas las escuela de los estados unidos . Se llaman una nación cristiana y ni de dios se habla.

Which will be argued in court and struck down as being unconstitutional.

Are we not an inclusive society? Why not in Yahweh we trust, or in Allah we trust?

It is important to say what you mean and mean what you say. It shouldsay, “In my God you will trust, or get the Hell out of here!”

Sure...that'll fix everything.

And that will stop the school shootings, I suppose. 🙏

Just which of the endless list of Gods are they referring to? The Bible describes 7 or 9, depending on how you count. Then there’s Islam, Buddhism, Shinto, etc. So which one do they trust. Just what the hell do they think they mean?

Whose God?

Do we have to say which god?

lol. Thor? Or Zeus?

May God bless them.

There are many different Gods.

ReginaldALawso1 Evangelical Fascists.

It is our country's motto after all

God bless Louisiana ‼️‼️‼️

Our Founders believed in separation of church & state because religion taints government & pits one religion, or lack of religion, against another. We’re founded on freedom of religion & government free from religious dogma.

First: How unconstitutional is this? Second: My father taught me to respect religious people but he was a pious man and never proselytized. The results of this study tell us exactly what the right is and what their future means for the rest of us.

Where was he during Katrina?

THANK YOU JESUS!

I believe its their state slogan.

Florida is already doing similar. It is against the Constitution.

🤮

Can’t Christians just carry little bibles around in their pockets to reassure themselves when they need a lift? Why do they need me to hear their fear?

ReginaldALawso1 So much for separation of church and state

They have no regard for the Constitution.

like that is going to help anything

👏🏻🌹

In God We Trust........all others pay cash.

liberals are outraged

Countdown to lawsuit beginssssss....NOW

Wow, that will move them to the top of public education systems...

About time there are strong people in charge with a backbone to fight for American values!

UrBeautyByCarol Amen!

Unconstitutional ... offensive ... knee jerk redneck reaction to who knows what

Well that should turn it all around there.

As long as it doesn’t say which god I’m going to assume they mean Zeus

Good!! We need more god and less media.

Kentucky too

In defiance of Supreme Court ruling. So that’s where we r now. To hell with the law. Wow

Money for that but not pencils

It’s on every bill in US

But what about the kids that don't trust an omnipresent being who is too lazy to prevent mass shootings?

Louisiana ranks 48 in education. I guess it’s only fitting, since they’ve clearly given up on educating the children

bring GOD back into our schools.. how refreshing and courageous.. it is about time.. as we have learned the hard way, things do not go well without Him..

Well yeah, cause that whole “and they’ll know we are Christian by our love” thing isn’t working so well anymore.

Such important legislation

Taking care of the important things, of course.

Y'all Qaeda at it again

Which god/s?

Whatever happened to the separation of church and state which our government was founded on. If you want to believe that's your choice, don't force it down everyone's throat.

Hooray!!!

The great sky ghost is pleased…

Instead of investing in and caring about their schools and teachers, they've decided to hope for divine intervention.

Try singing the National Anthem too..

Which one?

Which god?

Where’s the ACLU ?

Anybody who doesnt want their dollar bills.cuz theyre atheist and the in god we trust offends them, dm me i will take them

Would that be the same god who watches thousands of children starve to death every day?

Cause the displaying of words are far worse than drag queen story time where grown men with mental disorders dress like women and teach your children how to “Twerk” Liberal priorities are truly astonishing. LiberalismIsAMentalDisorder

Louisianna choice is believing in God as a greater trust, than the President; there could be greater merit to achieve, as 'strings' don't stretch that FAR ABOVE!

Against the law.

Those who want government to rule over people like serfs for their own enrichment won't like this, they'll say anything to oppose it. Soon it'll probably be racist to believe in God according to power hungry Democrat/Communists who hate everyone.

❤️

Little did they know that in God, we don't trust...

danicalynn1988 I thought Republicans were conservatives and believed in a strict interpretation of.our constitution, or is that just when it suits their needs? Separation of church and state is spelled out quite clearly.

Follow South Dakota’s lead. They’ve got that “1984” vibe down PAT. 🙄 🙄 🙄

It's about time the majority views are given importance as well

it must be in trump we trust

People may Trust GOD - But these So-Called 'Christians' & Evangelicals - NOT so Much.

Will they also have “In Allah We Trust” and “In Yahweh We Trust”? So much for a secular State. Surely this is unconstitutional!

Thanking God

Louisiana ranked on 50 in education in the USA. Who needs math and science if Jesus can speak to you.

Which God?

Here we go.

This is literally a thousand times more important to conservatives than higher order thinking and critical thinking skills.

Good idea. That’ll stop school shootings.

Winning ingodwetrust

Are we going backwards ? What year is it?

Makes sense. The pledge of allegiance says 'one nation under God'. More states should join LA.

Just like on money! So who is this God guy, anyway?

. Public schools around the UnitedStates are now asking student to say the words 'Not deported' when the teacher takes attendance. What a sad world we live in during the RacistRepublican era. ImpeachTrump RacistInChief ImpeachBarrNow FBR

Glory be to God, something that the DEVILS ADVOCATE BarackObama seeked to destroy. but who can fight against God and win? Only a fool and one such is the man I mentioned up there, can try that but most surely shall fail and eat his own vomit. God Bless America

Establishment clause. 🙄

The evangeliban does what?

Religious evangelical crowd just can't be satisfied until their bible beating is the only thoughts allowed. Just like Taliban and ISIS. 😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡

triggered This is how you make leftist snowflakes melt.. GodBlessAmerica

Awkward how will Atheists, Non religious and Monotheistic groups e.g. Hindu, Neo Hellenistic are going to react.

WTF?

This is my state. They love to bible thump you to death unfortunately.

The name of that God they trust is Mammon.

Yeah, that'll stop all the school shootings. Forcing religion... welcome to the American Taliban.

Brainwashing 101.

Personally, I believe in God, but this is ridiculous. There is a thing called separation of church and state and NO ONE should be allowed to push their personal religious beliefs on another.This is precisely why the younger generation is walking away from religious organizations.

🤔🙄😬

But let any other religion do that and suddenly it's a crime

In fairytales we trust. That exactly describes the mindset.

Great. You're not teaching kids objectively about religion. You're dictating to them what to believe.

And yet they complain about LGBTQ issues being forced on them. Keep your god to yourselves.

What about Epsteins God who believes in raping children and helping powerful men do the same.

Which God?

Good. It’s about time. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👍🏻🇺🇸 MAGA🇺🇸

well those kids are fucked
