‘In God We Trust' Signs Going Up in Carroll ISD Schools

Texas state law orders that donated "In God We Trust" signs must be displayed in schools in a conspicuous place

Signs saying "In God We Trust" will now hang in Carroll ISD schools after being donated by a locally-owned wireless provider.

Patriot Mobile, which labels itself a Christian conservative wireless provider, donated the signs to the Carroll Independent School District and they will now be hung in CISD schools.

According to a state law passed in 2021, schools are required to display signs or posters bearing the national motto in a conspicuous place provided that the signs were donated to the school or bought with private donations.

"I wish it need not have happened in my time," said Frodo.

"So do I," said Gandalf, "and so do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us."

Carroll ISD  Southlake is a weird place these days.  I hope the conservatives can reclaim the place from the recent Californifacation.
You don’t become cooler with age but you do care progressively less about being cool, which is the only true way to actually be cool.

Ceremonial deism.  But it's better than nothing.
And when they behead your own people in the wars which are to come, then you will know what this was all about.

It's the national motto, after all, which makes the signs a type of history lesson. It can tie into a discussion of the Cold War and the 1950s (as it was adopted in 1956).

It's not like they say, "Yay, Trump" or "Visualize whirled peas."
The abnormal is not the normal just because it is prevalent.

If it is good enough for the Dollar Bill then it is good enough for every thing.
