All Louisiana public schools are now required to display the national motto of “In God We Trust” inside of classrooms, under a new law that went into effect on August 1.
The bill’s author, state Rep. Dodie Horton, said to CNN affiliate WVUE, “It doesn’t preach any particular religion at all, but it certainly does recognize a higher power.”
While the “In God We Trust” motto does not reference any one religion, critics of the law fear it will further blur the lines separating church and state, which follows a pattern seen in Southern legislatures in recent years.
The Satanic Temple is who you're probably thinking of because the Church of Satan doesn't do much of anything except post snarky things on X and whine about how TST isn't real Satanism and how TST shouldn't be engaging in political action.
