That's actually a great idea. Have the children make them as a school assignment. Judaism is basically the same. That would be a fantastic start to accepting other people.

*tenets

All of them

THERE ARE SEVEN FUNDAMENTAL TENETS

I

One should strive to act with compassion and empathy toward all creatures in accordance with reason.

II

The struggle for justice is an ongoing and necessary pursuit that should prevail over laws and institutions.

III

One’s body is inviolable, subject to one’s own will alone.

IV

The freedoms of others should be respected, including the freedom to offend. To willfully and unjustly encroach upon the freedoms of another is to forgo one's own.

V

Beliefs should conform to one's best scientific understanding of the world. One should take care never to distort scientific facts to fit one's beliefs.

VI

People are fallible. If one makes a mistake, one should do one's best to rectify it and resolve any harm that might have been caused.

VII

Every tenet is a guiding principle designed to inspire nobility in action and thought. The spirit of compassion, wisdom, and justice should always prevail over the written or spoken word.

Or put it behind a shelf... they never said it had to be visible only posted

There is more than one list of 10 commandments in the Bible. Post them side by side and hilight the differences.

the tenants off all the other faiths

That's a LOT of people, none of which the founding fathers wanted to be allowed to vote.

I mean because they're not land owners but sure, the other reason too!

"Adultery is when you have sex with someone you are not married to." *(Bible's definition)

8yr old: "What is sex?"

Teacher: "Ask your parents."

Other 8 year old: "Is that what dad does with the babysitter?"

Teacher: "Ask your mom."

I'm not sure the wall has enough space.

Believe it or not there are rules about how it is allowed to be posted.

(1) include only the text of the Ten Commandments as provided by Subsection (c) in a size and typeface that is legible to a person with average vision from anywhere in the classroom in which the poster or framed copy is displayed; and (2) be at least 16 inches wide and 20 inches tall.

When Moses approached the camp and saw the calf and the dancing, his anger burned and he threw the tablets out of his hands, breaking them to pieces at the foot of the mountain. And he took the calf the people had made and burned it in the fire; then he ground it to powder, scattered it on the water and made the Israelites drink it.

He said to Aaron, “What did these people do to you, that you led them into such great sin?”

“Do not be angry, my lord,” Aaron answered. “You know how prone these people are to evil. They said to me, ‘Make us gods who will go before us. As for this fellow Moses who brought us up out of Egypt, we don’t know what has happened to him.’ So I told them, ‘Whoever has any gold jewelry, take it off.’ Then they gave me the gold, and I threw it into the fire, and out came this calf!”

Moses saw that the people were running wild and that Aaron had let them get out of control and so become a laughingstock to their enemies. So he stood at the entrance to the camp and said, “Whoever is for the Lord, come to me.” And all the Levites rallied to him.

Then he said to them, “This is what the Lord, the God of Israel, says: ‘Each man strap a sword to his side. Go back and forth through the camp from one end to the other, each killing his brother and friend and neighbor.’” The Levites did as Moses commanded, and that day about three thousand of the people died. Then Moses said, “You have been set apart to the Lord today, for you were against your own sons and brothers, and he has blessed you this day.”

There are two (or three) versions of the 10 Commandments in the Bible itself, before we even consider translation issues:

Anyway, the NIV translation uses "servant" instead of "slave", which seems bogus to me.

There's a whole list of things that should get you killed according to those nice books.

Knowledge that the Bible says slaves are OK will not be beneficial.

it should also be noted that that's about coveting other people's possessions. that's what that list all has in common. wives are not an exception to that category, as far as the author was concerned. (and the people insisting these stupid things go up.)

Original Hebrew is my favorite. If you're not reading it in the language God intended, do you even have faith bro?

Exactly. If there are people from other faiths to be made comfortable, include them. If there are atheists, choose a moral framework that's line with your/their/the school's values and put that up there too.

Font was not specified? It's time for

It was Moses that received them. Contrary to popular belief. Moses did not speak English. I think it would be entirely appropriate to have the 10 commandments in their original language. Which I will assume was Classic Hebrew

No Texas Republican would ever violate the 7th commandment, of course.

I’ve taught world religion to high schoolers before. I’m 100% in favor of it - I think it helps immensely with empathy and understanding the world. It’s a lot less easy to believe that all Muslims are swarthy murderous masses itching to kill infidels if you know the basic tenets of the religion. And most Christians don’t understand the Bible either. I am absolutely delighted to teach about the history of the texts and their interpretations.

Something like having all of the different religious tenets put up would make perfect sense in a high school world history classroom. However, none of that has any business being a in a middle school science classroom.

“which of these would you replace and what would you replace it with that offers better moral guidance?”

Thou shalt not kill; replace it with "thou must lubeth up before thy mandatory anal sex" /s

atheism isn't a belief system though. it's the absence of belief. if the teachers are forced to do stuff based on belief, the only malicious compliance that works within the rules is to treat all belief systems equally. science is also not a belief system.

The idea isn't to spread religious dogma, the idea is to put up non-christian, non-secular sources of what most would consider to be wisdom and watch the hypocrites who made the stupid law in the first place lose their minds that teachers are "putting [Islam, Buddhism, Satanism, etc] in schools". of course, to prevent the teacher from doing that, they would have to sue and potentially have the law that requires teachers to post up the 10 commandments in the first place be declared unconstitutional in order to also remove other sources of religious references.

Even in Europe we give these scammers and pedo's tons of money from the state.
