Jeff Landry has a suggestion for parents who don't believe the Ten Commandments should be displayed in public school classrooms throughout the state. "Tell your child not to look at them," he told reporters Monday. The law requires all public K-12 schools and colleges to display the Ten Commandments by January. One poster riffed off the song "Ten Duel Commandments" from the musical "Hamilton," while another poster compared Moses and Martin Luther King Jr. The U.S. Supreme Court last weighed in on the issue of the Ten Commandments in public schools in 1980, when the justices ruled 5-4 to strike down Kentucky's law.

I have had a privileged view of the human condition, and the essential place of religion on that hard road. Where else do people sing together week after week? I know the percentage of those who not only call themselves religious but also find themselves in religious communities declines each year. I have seen families receive meals for weeks, and in one case for years, after a loss. I have seen one child pick another up on the sports field and I have seen couples find their way back to one another after estrangements.
