>>537870104This will likely have the opposite effect of what was intended. Catholicism worked for so long because so few read the Bible itself. I'm not bashing Protestantism or Catholicism or etc, far from it. Or the Bible on its own merits. But the more people who read it post-Darwin, shit is just going to keep getting weirder. Industrial level scale production of people on a triune spectrum from like Dawkins (vehement rejectors) to James Talarico (cringe literalists) to Chud the Builder (based literalists). When our countries were just white with whatever minority and so many petty ethnic and religious squabbles were put aside (because everyone was culturally Christian) all literacy including biblical literacy was good. Atheists were powerless in any explicit sense but people with doubt just had more tact and grace out of humility before the universe, and genuine spiritual connections through church and family even if they rejected the slop of it all. Now we are so divided in so many ways.

There is supposed to be a seperation of church and state, this clearly violates that.It will be overruled, or overturned, or appealed, or remain "in-effect" but unenforcable.Any district actually complying with this dogshit is asking to get sued.

>>537873557https://www.mayoclinicproceedings.org/article/S0025-6196(11)62799-7/fulltextMost studies have shown that religious involvement and spirituality are associated with better health outcomes, including greater longevity, coping skills, and health-related quality of life (even during terminal illness) and less anxiety, depression, and suicide.
>>537873557www.forbes.com/sites/nicolefisher/2019/03/29/science-says-religion-is-good-for-your-health/#445372e43a12>Science Says: Religion Is Good For Your Health>There is ample reason to believe that faith in a higher power is associated with health, and in a positive way. For example, researchers at the Mayo Clinic concluded, “Most studies have shown that religious involvement and spirituality are associated with better health outcomes, including greater longevity, coping skills, and health-related quality of life (even during terminal illness) and less anxiety, depression, and suicide. Several studies have shown that addressing the spiritual needs of the patient may enhance recovery from illness.>That said, the lack of knowledge linking religious behaviors and health is fascinating given that health care is deeply rooted in religious institutions, and vice versa. In fact, it was religious organizations that built many of the first hospitals, and clergy (supplementing low church wages) were often practicing physicians and medical providers.>80% of research on spirituality/religiousness and health focuses on mental health. This is because most associations with faith are related to how one thinks about the world and their role in it. Words that are often associated with religious beliefs include connectedness, hope, optimism, trust and purpose. All of which have been shown to boost mental health. Compassion, forgiveness and gratefulness are also qualities that are strongly associated with individuals who are spiritual and religious. Practicing these qualities is thought to be associated with deceased stress and increased resiliency.

Indeed, beyond case-reports and samples of fewer than 10 people, we have found no evidence that religion can harm health in representative samples of community residents or in systematically sampled clinical populations….We believe that the state of the evidence probably reflects reality…the dominant pattern is one in which religious involvement either has no effect or has positive effects on health.

If you do not understand what happened in that unique and fubar period, you could never understand and appreciate any offshoot from that period which brought so much advancement. Leftist have proven you can not make people smarter thru indoctrination but you can make people understand the world around them through teaching honest history of what happened and why humans changed because of that-- for both good and for ill.

>>537880428>You injected something that isn't there.I didn't inject anything, I interpreted. The Constitution is a legal document. The exact words "separation of church and state" are vague, and could not be present within the Constitution because it is hard to intuit a legal meaning. Instead you use words that imply a specific course of action or non-action. The literal meaning of a separation of church and state is that the church cannot cause the state to do anything in its favor, and likewise, the state does not have any such influence over the church. How do you describe that in terms of precisely-defined action and non-action?To prohibit the church's influence over the state, you would say that Congress (the law-passing arm of the state) is not permitted to pass laws "respecting an establishment of religion". Here, the operative word is "respecting", which can have the meaning of "to have reference to" or "to hold in high esteem". It is as general as possible to describe all ways in which an establishment of religion (e.g. a church) could sway the government into acting in their favor. The other element of separation of church and state should be obvious in preventing the state from prohibiting the free exercise of religion, thereby making it impossible for the state to hold leverage over the church.
>>537880589>No they don't.There is no evidence that Hebrews were ever enslaved en masse in Egypt. Rather, the Bible indicates that the fiction of this was used as a cultural myth to unify a diaspora people.

>>537880989By the way, Christianity created science.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Eqcnsy7pZ-kHeathencucks want to destroy science.That's why they removed logic from schools.
I had to read the Bible during the 2 years I was in a private Christian school. Reading it every day made me ask a lot of questions in it and wonder about the metaphorical meaning of it, that might've been a big part of how I got to where I am now. I think it'll be good for kids to get to know God, however they may go about it.

>>537879559>Imagine being indoctrinated at a young ageEveryone but feral children is indoctrinated at a young age. You were taught such doctrines as how to read, how to count, how to play with others, etc. School itself is formal indoctrination. The only disagreement in this regard is what things to include and not include in the indoctrination, not that it should be done.

>>537870234Obviously the one that worships jews.
>>537880589>Whose standards? The people who claim women have penises and kids should be castrated?Geneva conventions you fucking mongrel. And to be clear, the events of Numbers and Joshua involved the MURDER OF CHILDREN BY THE JEWS. You want to complain about non-existent child castration, but completely glaze over the Jews murdering every young boy among the midianites and forcing all the young girls into sex slavery. And in Joshua, the killing of everyone who breathed among the cities they did battle with. That would include non-combatants such as children.>>537881101Says, no. Implies, yes.

Now tell me jew does the word 'enforce' actually appear in the First Amendment?
>>537880838>Here, the operative word is "respecting"Also "establishment". "Establishment" of a religion is a rather specific thing, in context. It refers to how the Church of England operates with respect to the government, with formal government control and legal impositions of various religious things. Studying religious texts in school is not establishing a religion.
>>537872620Public school started in America to ensure that people could read the Bible dumb nigger, this is the definition of conservation. I notice none of you yids are advocating for the end of public schools all together which is the obvious solution, is that because you would be losing your golem factories?
>>537870104Will they let them read the New Testament or only the Old Testament? The people in this thread saying this is based are delusional if you think this will amount to anything. This move by Texas would only be a based move if the state is majority white and I mean actual white not "white". Texas is minority white so it will ultimately amount to nothing meaning this is just a preformative measure to make the state look like a Christian state but that's as far as it will go.>>537870234This, my guess is they will only let them read the Scofield Bible especially since that version has those side notes all throughout it which will be marketed as "helping" the students understand the subject matter in the Bible when really it is just subversion.

>>537881471big win, more like
Remember that fallen human beings are coddled self loathing retards that hate anything that reminds them they're flawed. So getting mad at religion or government is tolerable just as long as it collapses. you also get to pretend to be morally righteous about how unfair the system you built is, just don't think about why the system existed in the first place and why you needed to build it. That's forbidden. Ontological metacognition is highly ILLEGAL. You can kill anyone, for the right reasons, you can pretend like your relationships actually have grounded objective value and that you legitimately care. but, tell a human being that God had to die in their stead, the shrink back in horror and say. "But i'm God! How dare you, the urge to kill you is strong!" while proceeding to stand on a soapbox about how the God they apparently don't believe exists, and know has nothing to do with religion because they logically infer that by differentiating the two, somehow offended them, while they schizophrenically borrow epistemics and reality to judge this non existent God, while pretending like the morality they're using is subjective while clearly using it in a animus driven rant against this, again, non existent God as per their own worldview.You don't need religion to be a retard.
>>537880978>Absence of evidence is not evidence of absence.In a major literate civilization that left records of commerce and accounting it is.>It's a fact.A great deal of the Bible is figurative, intended to convey wisdom and moral instruction rather than an account of history. The Old Testament predates history as a genre, after all. A clue that the Bible should not be treated this way is right at the beginning. In Genesis, there are two contradictory creation accounts. They cannot both be factually true, so the intent is obviously to relay something other than a straightforward account of facts.As for what you might glean from the Bible, consider whether the myth of the slavery in Egypt has any parallels to things relevant today. Would people invent a narrative of victimization?
>>537873236Except you're a jew lying about what the 1A says, you can look it up in 5 seconds. US states had perfectly legal state churches into the 1800s, there is no language in the 1A that prohibits this in fact the 1A expressly prohibits Congress from prohibiting it not to mention the 10A. This is the power of public education a bunch of jews lying boldly to dysgenic niggercattle too dumb to look it up and read it themselves.

>>537881518Establishment in this context is a noun and not a verb. The verb is respecting and the object of that verb is establishment of religion. If the law were meant only to prevent the establishment of religion, then the language used would be "establishing a religion" or "that establishes a religion" or even "with respect to the establishment of religion". The specific choice of "respecting an establishment" suggests that the word establishment is being used in the context of an institution, rather than the action of creation.

Atheists make a positive claim against God existence, even when proving a negative (which in the general sense, is not impossible. You're stretching the generalization over to God, because you presuppose it's somehow impossible before even evaluating a claim.)You people literally have to work to deny God in a conversation, i simply believe. That's the offense. Atheist deflections often use moral language and posturing that implies religion, which they already know has nothing to do with God by the fact that they deny he exists, is entirely what God wanted. Even when the Christian belief literally depicts systemic religion and secularism colluding to murder an innocent man, EVEN IF you deny he exists. The mere concept itself fucking spooks the shit out of you.

>>537882251>it's specifically a lack of belief in godsWrong, you stupid redditor.>That would imply rocks and trees are atheist.https://plato.stanford.edu/entries/atheism-agnosticism/>In philosophy, however, and more specifically in the philosophy of religion, the term “atheism” is standardly used to refer to the proposition that God does not exist (or, more broadly, to the proposition that there are no gods). Thus, to be an atheist on this definition, it does not suffice to suspend judgment on whether there is a God, even though that implies a lack of theistic belief. Instead, one must deny that God exists. This metaphysical sense of the word is preferred over other senses, including the psychological sense, not just by theistic philosophers, but by many (though not all) atheists in philosophy as well. For example, Robin Le Poidevin writes, “An atheist is one who denies the existence of a personal, transcendent creator of the universe, rather than one who simply lives his life without reference to such a being” (1996: xvii). J. L. Schellenberg says that “in philosophy, the atheist is not just someone who doesn’t accept theism, but more strongly someone who opposes it.” In other words, it is “the denial of theism, the claim that there is no God” (2019: 5).>This definition is also found in multiple encyclopedias and dictionaries of philosophy. For example, in the Concise Routledge Encyclopedia of Philosophy, William L. Rowe (also an atheist) writes, “Atheism is the position that affirms the nonexistence of God. It proposes positive disbelief rather than mere suspension of belief” (2000: 62). The Cambridge Dictionary of Philosophy recognizes multiple senses of the word “atheism”, but is clear about which is standard in philosophy:>[Atheism is] the view that there are no gods.

>>537883139Different ones. The first, for example, is the "uncaused cause" since Aquinas recognizes that causality can't account for its own existence. Something unusual is obviously involved, but there's nothing that requires this cause to be a personal deity, let alone one of the Christian sort.
>>537883157>civilized societyYou do realize that society borrows moral law from God's ontology and then pretends like deny his existence and continuing to use it isn't just a dialectic trick where you blame humans that externalize their guilt where as you deny it by internalizing it and pretending he doesn't exist. Neither of these is what God's hinting at and thats precisely the point. If you had actually read Genesis 3, you'd notice that because you know Good and Evil, Religion is an ad-hoc creation of man trying to justify himself after the point of no return in regards to sin. Meaning it's actually evil because it stems from corrupt man. Meaning this is precisely why the Pharisee crucified Jesus knowing he was innocent. Society is pretending like it is self-sustaining, if that's the case why are there laws?
>>537883288> epistemology can stayCongrats, you admitted philosophy is necessary after trying to throw philosophy out.> gimmie a how“How” already assumes causality, logic, induction, identity, and a standard of evidence.Those are not meter readings.

You don’t hate ontology. You just hate being caught doing it.
>>537884556i hate how philosowankers insist you engage with their disconnected old wordswordswords in order to dismiss philosowank"there are no gods here" is statement of observationi've tried all sorts of wacky nonsense from all kinds of prayer to all manner of crystal and candles shitresults null, i've found no method that produces supernatural/magic/whatever you want to call it because i'm starting to get the impression you are going to get stuck on terms there, effects no temp changes, no movements, exactly fuck allthat's my basis for everythingi don't have an internal belief system or other meaning structure from which all logically flowsi have a bunch of tiny shitty models adapted to small tasks that are used if they work and discarded if something better comes alongtruth is whatever is there, fuck knows what it is but i've got some incremental ways to find out
>>537884873> there are no gods here is statement of observationNo, “I tried prayer/crystals/candles and got no measurable effect” is the observation.“There are no gods here” is the inference.You keep smuggling the conclusion into the observation and pretending it’s raw data.> results nullFor crystals and candle magic, sure. Christianity is not “say spell, watch thermometer move.”God is not a lab object inside the universe waiting for you to poke it with consumer-grade ritual gear.> i don't have an internal belief systemYes you do.“Truth is whatever is there” is ontology.“Incremental ways to find out” is epistemology.“Models are kept if useful” is pragmatism.You have a worldview. It’s just duct-taped together and called “not philosophy” so you don’t have to defend it.> truth is whatever is thereGood. Then stop confusing “what I can currently measure” with “whatever is there.”
>>537870104which bible
>>537885145i think i just got the disconnectyou types are used to certain subjects being of the purview of philosophyso my outputs in those areas are being treated as philosophical claims claims on knowledge and such don't belong to philosophy lol there are other pathsamusingly enough from my perspective, a category error>stop confusing “what I can currently measure” with “whatever is there.”functionally identical, don't bother mining U if you haven't got reactors, sort of thing
>>537885333>claims on knowledge and such don't belong to philosophyDo you realize that science is a philosophy?
>>537885551philosophy is just language with it's head up it's arsewe gonna argue definitions now?and what happened to the crazy, is it just me and the gpt now lol
>>537885598>philosophy is just language with it's head up it's arseOk then science isn't real
>>537885219>which bibleThat of Satan of course, the Torah and the Talmud.>Talmud Television Tetragrammaton ywhw just fuck my shit up senpaiReminder that Judaism and Christianity are complete polar opposites. Jews corrupted the gullible minds of burgers and somehow got raped by Scofield and Hagee and other pay-for-pray retarded fucking shit shows. Pax-Judaica is a real threat to humanity. Far more alarming than muh climate.

>>537870234The Douay–Rheims Bible is the best. Someone who can read Greek will disagree, and they are probably correct.. But for us normal English speakers, that's the go-to.
>>537885639most of it probably isn'tbut my microwave warms the hot picket, take a moment to consider all of the models involved in that actionfactory machinery, road building, alloys, thermodynamics, atomics, all that infrastructure and mechanismat least that much science is realbut yeah your wordgames and why questions are very useful and important too rightthere must be so many practical applications for what amounts to poetry with a question markso many useful things of which i invite you to name two
Ben Shapiro wants you to read it, a guy who gave millions of dollars to HIAS to bring in more indians, nigger somalians, ethiopians, nigerians, etc. When that kind of person is demanding you read the bible, you know exactly why. Imagine him standing there, give you that same smirk he did when Charlie Kirk died, that punic mask smile. lel
