"We believe this country was founded on that." Beliefs are not facts. If she would study American history, she would know that she's completely wrong.
Oops you just opened up a can of worms
Too stupid for that
Lol yea out founding fathers would have definitely supported gay marriage. Its all right there in the history books
The Western world was founded on Judeo-Christian principles, which the Enlightenment stole and removed God from the equation
And also… this is a pattern in history. Go too far left. Wave splashes right. After too far right wave splashes back left… people are so short sighted. In eight years it’ll shift left again.
Hypotheticals? This lady clearly takes others for idiots if she thinks that is a way of not answering the question.
Yeah. I'm pretty sure it's not hypothetical that there are families and teachers who are Jewish, Muslim, or Hindu in Louisiana.
@@CortexNewsServiceThis actually made me laugh. 😅 Why? The commandments were originally meant for the Jews.
@@CortexNewsService there are.
It’s a dog whistle to the SCOTUS majority. And, it is a big FU to the those of us who know the difference between _faith_ and _good faith_ .
@@yvonneplant9434 Which is different than what Protestants use, which is different than what Catholics use. Which version do you think Louisiana will require?
What a great example of how effective the Louisiana education system is when this woman can't even answer a basic question. lol
Poor kids may be too hungry from being denied food to even read the commandments IF they can READ citing the horrible school conditions. Jeff Landry and the whole Maga-AntiChrist movement are using religion as a con to get what they want: total autocracy, of government and ALL domination of non whites! PERIOD
She never answered the question
This woman has issues
It's clear separation of state.... full stop 🛑 end of conversation
And put up all the religious words of other doctrine devil worshipping is a religion
Let's see how well that goes over
And she has mental health issues if she believes the ten commandments is not a religious statement
Do you want devil worshipping in the schools?????
Devil worshipping is a certified religion!!!!!!
Well if the ten commandments stand
Then you just gave the devil worshipers legal standing in court
They are a legal and certified religion...... devil worshipping

Christians are mandating religious rules I'm pretty sure that's unconstitutional considering we're not all religious
Doesn't matte if you're religious or not. The Bill of Rights was enacted to protect religion from people like you. Why is that so hard to understand?
dONT LIKE THIS NATION FOUNDED BY cHRISTIANS FOR cHRISTIANS, FEEL FREE TO LEAVE, AND BECOME A CITIZEN OF ATHEIST CHINA
And that those that are religious do not share the same religion. Even those that are Christian have have different groups that believe differently. All Christian religions are NOT the same. In addition, if you believe in God, you know in the bible man was given free will to follow God or not follow him. Yet this group is trying to superceed what God allows and force all into worshiping like they do.
@@dennisreed3382 No, it wasnt. It was enacted to give every American the right to practice their beliefs, privately, without the government hunting them down.
That is also why there is NO NATIONAL RELIGION....the government was designed to NOT force beliefs on anyone
You might not be religious today but all of the founders were in fact religious and highly pious. They never sought to ban religion from all public spaces. What they sought was mandatory official government neutrality. Athiests, Muslims, Hindus, and other Non Christians were not part of this important moment in history and as a result they really don't understand what it was actually about, yet all of them benefit from what was an action intended to benefit Christians.
Government funded religious discrimination and imperialism in Louisiana is disgusting
Not as disgusting as hag kween story hour
So you don't believe in following the 10 commandments?
Do you live your life respecting others, have value for life itself, and treat others like you want to be treated? If not, you're the reason we have mass shootings.

Hey, Lauren, please explain how "I am the Lord thy God, Thou shalt have no other gods before me" is anything *but* religious indoctrination.
Only a fool doomed to hell would argue against their Creator.
@@the_right_moment well, we disagree on the creator part...and if there is a hell, thats where all the cool kids are
Calling it indoctrination is like saying a compass indoctrinates you to follow north. It's about finding the right direction in life.
@@openyoureyes909jones6 If hell is where the 'cool kids' are, I guess eternal suffering is the new trend. But seriously, the First Commandment is about recognizing the ultimate truth, not about being 'cool' or 'uncool.' 😎
It also says on the dollar bill "In God We Trust". Do you feel like you're indoctrinating religion whenever you spend your money?
The Ten Commandments are also in the Supreme Court and many other places within our federal and state governments.
Therefore, to try to divorce the United States from its Christian heritage is revisionist history.
Man once surrendering his reason, has no remaining guard against absurdities the most monstrous, and like a ship without rudder, is the sport of every wind. With such persons, gullibility, which they call faith, takes the helm from the hand of reason, and the mind becomes a wreck.
Thomas Jefferson
Christians should remember that separation of church & state is why THEY can worship peacefully too, since history is riddled with Holy Wars ✝️ between Christians of differing sub-sections (Ex.: Protestants vs Catholics!).
Btw:
"In God We Trust' has only been printed on officially circulated coins in the U.S. since 1864, and only made it onto printed bills in 1957.
How does that relate to following ten rules to live your life with?
Do you want to kill your neighbors? Cheat on your wife or husband?. Do you lie in court to put someone in prison because you hate them. Do you want to be treated the same way? Then you are the reason we have mass shooting.
"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, Founding Father, architect of the Constitution, and fourth President of the United States.
One of my go to quotes! Thank you!
"Find a society that's adopted the teachings of Spinoza, Voltaire, Galileo, Einstein, Thomas Paine, Thomas Jefferson and gone down the pits-as a result of doing that-into famine and war and dictatorship and torture and repression. That's the experiment I would like to run." - C. Hitchens.
It goes into more detail than just that.
but....not in the constitution.
@@RAPPTN litterally says in the constitution that the US will not establish a religion can you read?
Hold on, I am a Christian too, but l really did not understand how Leonard LEO, got elected as Louisiana governor.
I want my Practice of religion to be between me and The God above.
Separation of church and state dies not mean individual separation from God
By the way , all so called Christian Nationalists should read Psalms 66:18.

That's because it was a baited question
She sounds hangry
The intelligence and professionalism of this CNN anchor is amazing and should be honored
Yes she's 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Agreed. She listened, then cut right through the bullcrap. The female from Louisiana, however, was deflecting so hard she should teach a defense class.
So it's ok to have LGBTQ flags and banners in classrooms, but not the ten Commandments. What a bunch of crap !
@@s.w.warbirds4126 is LGBTQ a religion?
Imagine supporting the likes of Trump and calling yourself a Christian. These are the same Christians who were okay with Jim Crow but opposed the 1964 civil rights bill.
They just like Trump because he's an a***ole. They see him as someone who will give them what they want, which is to impose their religious beliefs on everyone else using laws.
Because they are under cover whites Supreme and kkk
😊
Is no one going to mention the young girl who passed out over that ridiculous proclamation?
At this point I think it's scripted, this happens so many times that's starting to look fake.
She probably missed a couple of meals.
Sadly.
No…because children only serve the purpose of being cudgels for religious fanatics to make believe their abject mediocrity is worth it’s weight in dust.
Yeah. And these ghouls go on like nothing happened.
@@eileendunn2130 How do you get she missed meals lol that's a low IQ assumption.. Its a lot more likely she was over whelmed by the clapping and being in the spotlight. I hope she's okay.
The fact that when she's asked the question her argument is she doesn't deal with hypotheticals just that text of the bill she proposed. This further shows that she has no empathy and put no thought into how anyone else would feel who did not think or believe like her. Which is the larger problem at hand with all these bills and things that people are trying to push across the state that is based on their beliefs only..
Calling the 10 commandments a historical document is laughable.
It most certainly is a historical document. The archeological evidence of that event is pretty overwhelming. You gotta be in the know. Don't wait too long to figure it out.
And she said Moses gave them. Might want to read the story first. Bet she can't quote John 3:16.
@@joelsilva6689 its a Biblical document. The constitution and the likes is a historical document. God didnt mandate them.
@@valeriejones3808 Archeology has used the Bible to find lost cities and sites accurately. It's a verified historical document. That's not opinion. It's fact.
How is it not religious when the first 3 commandments are about belief in a particular god ?
God is a human construct. Religions were all created by humans.
This is like pride flags in schools.
1. Thou shall not have any GODS (plural) before me. It recognizes polytheism.
@PabloTheThinker I feel like I'm wearing down my typing fingers for nothing explaining this to you, but: sexual orientation is intrinsic to who and what you are. Religion is a choice. Sexual orientation is a part of you the way the color of your eyes is. Religion is a social construct.
No, it’s nothing like rainbow flags, that’s just silly. One says it’s ok to be gay if you are. The other commands you fallow a particular god and how you must follow. The facts you even made such a ludicrous claim doesn’t say much about your critical thinking skills.
Wow Lauren’s response is insanely disingenuous.

Let's not stop at the 10 commandments. Let' also post Exodus 21:20-21:
“Anyone who beats their male or female slave with a rod must be punished if the slave dies as a direct result, but they are not to be punished if the slave recovers after a day or two, since the slave is their property."
"Biblical Christian Values..."
That's more Jewish seeing that it's the old testament. I you want to know what Christianity's about look to Paul.
… And you did not quote the New Testament to contradict that. The God of Abraham must be quite incompetent to make His mind up on the ethics of slavery, is He?
I'm for it I live here in Louisiana they need to have Bible readings everyday for the children to learn
@@MarkFrost-zc5ne Just as they need to read of disputes and arguments about the hypocrisy of the so-called Christian Church with compatible examples to show students that they live in a world full of immoral slime who hid behind false notions of morals to fit a purpose that has nothing to do with the point.
Or simply get them to read the Qu’ran instead so we can have a generation of Muslims! What’s the difference?
Thought that headline was a meme at first! 😂
BRAVO for Abby Phillip. She brought so much clarity to this, and refusal to play this insidious game. Yet she did it with calm and grace. That such an argument is even needed now in 2024 is tragic. Abby Phillips gives me hope. Thank you CNN for good work in this madness. That was really impressive ,
I don’t understand what she’s trying to say she not even answering any of the questions. What is she saying!!!!
She said America was founded by Christians and our Constitution is based upon Christian values. Even your right to dissent is a Christian idea. She also said the values in the 10 commandments are the basis for your entire belief system. But Democrats are too spiteful to admit it.
She's saying this is just the new version of the kkk using religion.

Christian nationalist is an oxymoron. Can't be both.
This was a YES/NO question. She gave an ESSAY answer without answering the question.

No, instead, as most history teachers and many other teachers already do.
The woman that feinted had strong morals and ethics, and couldn't believe she was standing up for a lie.
That was a child that fainted not a woman
The problem is clear. And it leads to a big question in my view:
Does this nation's Constitution promote some specific brand of "Christianity" above all other (personal) belief systems?
I wonder if the Republican party believe the ten commandments and if they do, can they explain trump?
What does that even mean lol
Trump caters to Christian policies is all I care about. Biden caters to secular policies. Both devils
What are you even trying to convey here?
It is simple, the ten commandments are a moral code, and trump has broken many of them....
trump is a convicted felon, liar, cheater.....so, how do christians support him if they actually believe the ten commandments?
simple enough for ya?
doh, the comment was directed at noahbeaty2295 and bi7630, not you OP....just so we are clear
It says a lot about these holy rollers that they think ethics come only from religion.
Some of the biggest a$$holes I know IRL belong to the 'dress up on Sunday' club.
The only part they care about is being 'saved' from their 'sins' by pretending to believe this crap.....they believe it literally wipes their slate clean when they act like the horrible pieces of crap they actually are.
actually it might surprise you to know the founders of this country actually did believe that ethics could only come from religion.
At least their ethics don't come from warped gender theories and Marxist manifestos. 😂
Come on. It's Louisiana. It's not like any of those kids will be able to read it.
The original lawgiver was Hammurabi, but what the heck?
No law in the time of Noah, Abraham, or Jacob according to them it seems. Awful lot of punishing with no law.

The Ten Commandments are also a Jewish text - both historically and morally significant to millions.
True. Also not the point.
The Ten Commandments read like Trump's bucket list!
And also not historically and morally significant to millions, you could also say that the Koran or the Bhagavad-Gita is historically and morally significant to millions
*CNN anchor breaks down upswell of Christian nationalism: "It seems to be a response to the evil that, due to Demonrat policies, has exponentially spread throughout the country."*
*-There, I fixed it.*
And which version? The Protestant version of the commandments is different than the Catholic or Jewish versions.
Except the little girl that passed out, and nobody noticed... they care so much for the children...
Than satainism should be allowed in classrooms. All religions and not your special one. All or none. We are not a christian nation.
That is the valid argument. I see this going to the Supremes, but it is stocked with charlatans letting the christian nationalists do as they please.....SCOTUS will probably squirm and call it a state's right, not violating the Constitution

So are we all talking about christian nationalism as a whole or only white Christian nationalism? Cause I know a lotta African American Christian’s.
Only the white ones are nuts
I know them too; one of them cuts my hair. However, they're not constantly trying to force their religion upon anyone. Their religion gives them comfort in dealing with life everyday, they celebrate it and it's their right to do so.
Who bombed and burn Black churches?
Who blocks and prevents Black Christians to enter their churches?
Who refuses to believe or acknowledge Jesus' brown skin ( Middle East region) ?

White Christian Nationalism = Racism.
KKK or White power, Arynian, third reich ...are the "old extremely negative terms" for the racist groups.
They are not synonymous. Christian is to Christian Nationalism as white is to White Power.
Christian nationalism is different from Christianity. Christian nationalism seeks to push (one interpretation of) Christianity into every aspect of government which would eventually end freedom of religion in our country. (Although I think it is mostly white Christian nationalism at the core of the movement.)
78% of Americans are in favor of public displays of the Ten Commandments, yet only 14% can accurately name all Ten Commandments

What the Seven Mountain Mandate really promotes:
1. Family - Patriarchy
2. Church - Fundamentalism
3. Education - Indoctrination
4. Media - Propaganda
5. Arts - Exclusivity/Censorship
6. Business - Regulation
7. Government - Theocracy (not Democracy)
Their list includes offices (power) rather than ideals (principalities).
It is interesting that their agenda DOES NOT include the areas of:
a. Pursuit of Science
b. Health (neither physical nor mental)
c. Self responsibility
d. Justice

This is such an aggravating conversation. I feel like I’m in a fever dream.
If they make a christian state.. where is the state for other religions ?
On a reservation like my ancestors
Or for those who don't want a state religion? Maybe California or Canada will the sanctuaries in the region🤣
Christian Nationalism ?....lol...Dems crack me up !
That is the correct label for the lawmakers violating the constitution in this way, get over it. Your state-mandated religion is going to be an abject failure.
What other countries in the world government's are based upon religion? Taliban and Iran. How is that working for it's population?
I’m conservative. This country is about freedom no doubt about that, but please stop trying to shove religion down everyone’s throat. The Founders wanted separation between church and state, period! Especially Thomas Jefferson. Just because you like capitalism, entrepreneurship and the constitution, doesn’t mean you have to be a Christian. Freedom of religion means exactly that, the right to believe or not believe at all.
😡😡😡 cant wait for ALL faiths to come forward and demand theirs be set too. Tx tried this in some places. See what happened to theirs
These folks who convince themselves that supernatural things are real are insane

I’m very happy for Louisiana. This is a great thing for our country! And for the seething energy that has been dominating lately.
Ironic part is. This was written down Hundreds of years ago of what would take place and happen to people. And here it is.
People turning in their neighbors for flying flags and having weapons..
I didnt think i would see it happening. But i am..
Your answer would make MLK sick if he was alive. This is a nation built on Judea Christian O.T. and N.T.. Others may have their understanding of freedom of religion but Jesus is Lord. The ten commandments were taken down and spoken against when secular people obtained media jobs to pollute the atmosphere with un-holy values. The Ten Commandments never should have been taken down. The pledge of allegiance never should have been put aside.
It's difficult to see so many people unaware of the reason why we separate State from religion. If not separated it leads to horror.
They passed this law to get it to the Supreme Court. Hey lady, fix our home insurance problems in Louisiana. Companies are leaving and the ones staying have cranked up the rates!
So evil to have something say you should not kill, or steal, lie, bear false witness, or cheat on your spouse, and you should honor your parents. Just horrible. Almost looks like a foundation for law and order and a functioning society. We can't have that.
I have watched her give the same avoiding responses in each interview.
Psalm 119:11 KJV "Thy word have I hid in mine heart, That I might not sin against thee."
Don't need it posted in classrooms if you are teaching your children God's Word (like my father did), if you're reading God's Word on a regular basis, if you have a prayer life, etc.
panic attack over the ten commandments but teaching middle schoolers about gender surgery is okay?
There is a reason we separated church and state. All you have to do is look at how powerful the Vatican still is to see how bad a play this is.
Most of us don't want to live in a theocracy, even if theocracy is historical.
Precisely
Repubs talk about freedom while trying to force their religion on us
The hypocrisy is stunning
She's talking out of both sides of her mouth. One second, she's claiming the text is secular, it's the "moral fiber" of the country, the next she's saying Louisiana is a State of Faith and Family. Literally couldn't even get her cover story straight.
If the put up a list that says "Don't kill. Don't steal. Don't envy. Don't have affairs, etc", I'm cool with it. But "I am the Lord thy God, thou shalt not have false gods before me" is not a code of conduct, and it has no place in public schools.
First Amendment: Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion.
What these Christo fascists are doing in Louisiana violates the Establishment Clause of the Constitution.
In Denmark we have a picture of Jesus in our Passport.😊
Denmark iS the most anti Christian anti religion country
One of the inherent difficulties with Christianity is that there are SO many variants, and sects, that anything which has the sense of cutting across all those lines, is perceived to be nonsecular, even when it is unique to Christians. That's how Christmas and Easter - both decidedly events of Christian importance, and ONLY Christian importance - are designated as "statutory" holidays that all are presumed to observe. It is therefore no great surprise that the upswell of Christian Nationalism is accompanied by a decline in women's rights, union-breaking, and anti-immigrant attitudes. Not that Christianity itself advocates any of that. Rather, all of these rather undesirable trends share the common thread of "My way is the only way that can be allowed to exist".
"You are giving me a scenario that cannot be specifically addressed without knowing more of the details." In other words, she has not taken the time to study any other religion but her own.
What is Louisiana’s ranking in education compared to the rest of the country? This requirement will undoubtedly cost taxpayer’s money to defend in court and it seems like that money would be better served teaching actual education instead of religious mythology.
It's called a death rattle. These people understand that their ideas are weak and dying in the face of new knowledge, and that such ideas are unlikely to survive much longer.
CNN needs to pull up the 10 commandments and show that about half of them are just about how to worship the god of the Bible.
It's interesting that they haven't been showing them on screen

"This bill is about the Ten Commandments."
Lady, that is the problem.
This is why my wife and I are actively working on finding a new country to call our home. This country is going to turn into a theocracy... And I don't want to be here when it does.
What part of separation of church and state do these people not understand? It’s self explanatory. Keep the church separate from the state. How hard is that?????
The proper opposition to this madness, is to teach the 20 days in Exodus. That book follows the twenty days, which are known globally, by chapter twice round.
Chapter 20 is Tzi, the 20th day, and it is the law of nature metaphorically. It is not a coincidence that chapter 20 is when this is brought up.
The 20 days are easily tracked, discerned, and taught. The book was never meant to be taken literally. 8 is frogs, 9 is hail and fire, and 10 is the Sun. Those are the twenty days, a score. it has nothing to do with religion and was intended to teach the cycles known globally and kept for many thousands of years.
Let’s not forget the last major upswell in christian nationalism occurred in 1930s 🇩🇪
Why don't she read the historical doctrine. There are a lot more comments than ten, and it is formally known as the mosaic law
You don't need religion to be a spiritual person. Just be a good neighbor.
God needs to come down here and straighten us up. The Good Lord is being misrepresented by far too many of his followers. This is just one example of far too many.
We need to pull all federal funding from Louisiana until they stop putting religion in public schools.
For historical purposes the state legislature should post the words of the Jena Band of Choctaw Indians, the Tunica-Biloxi Tribe of Louisiana, the Coushatta Tribe of Louisiana, and the Chitimacha Tribe and teach children of moral fabric of the original people of that area.
As a teacher, i would be proud to defy this law.
I suggest that teachers who post the 10 Commandments ALSO post major documents of all of the other religions beside it!
This is absolutely unbelievable!!
I want to hear more about this law, but on the democratic side. How could they vote yes? This tells you that Louisiana is living in the past!.
