Patently unconstitutional': What experts say about Ken Paxton urging Lord's Prayer in Texas schools

[Josie]

I'm not sure they're saying specifically what you got you can pray to and which God you can't so I failed to see the problem.

I mean - it sounds pretty clear:

 

[CLAX1911]

As I posted elsewhere, I assume that specifying a particular prayer from a particular religion could be the problem,

So you're assuming certain things for what reason you know you can read the bill it's not that long.

There's no need to assume.

that it would be the same if he specified part of the Muslim Salah. And the text of the Lord’s Prayer, differs slightly in its Protestant version from the Catholic version I was raised with.

For the second time Muslims haven't been allowed to pray in school since I was in high school which was in 99.

Elsewhere in the press release, however, there is the encouragement of reading the Bible “or other religious texts,” which I assume might pass Constitutional muster.

So you're listening to absolutely liars versus actually reading the bill for yourself why?

You don't have to assume anything you can just read and know what's wrong with you?

Have you read the bill?

Have you read the bill?

I have not. Just what Paxton said about it.

I have not. Just what Paxton said about it.

It's pretty short.

I read the press release, which provided the info I posted. I didn’t see a link to the bill. Can you post one, or at least its name or number so I can look it up?

There's no need to assume.

My point exactly, unless I am missing yours. Why prohibit Muslim prayer and endorse the Christian Lord’s Prayer?

I said “I assume,” not knowing for sure, but based on general public knowledge of the issue. Where do I find the bill? Can and did the AG introduce it?

What part of this prohibits Muslim prayer?

I provided a link. I'm the future you should start there.
Here's the link again.
