U.S. District Judge John W. deGravelles in Baton Rouge said the law had an "overtly religious" purpose, and rejected state officials' claims that the government can mandate the posting of the Ten Commandments because they hold historical significance to the foundation of U.S. law. His opinion noted that no other foundational documents — including the Constitution or the Bill of Rights — must be posted.

I think this judge has the right take on this. Republicans should realize that quietly slipping divisive religious content into the schools aggravates the liberals in somewhat the same way all the trans crap in schools and sports aggravates conservatives.
