Louisiana imposed, on Wednesday, the display of the “Ten Commandments” in all classrooms in this conservative state in the south of the United States, a first which rekindles the debate on the separation of Church and State .

The Republican governor of Louisiana, Jeff Landry, signed into law a bill that provides for this display in all public schools – from kindergarten to universities – funded by the state, starting next year.

“Because if we want to respect the rule of law, then we must start from the original law, that of Moses,” he said during a signing ceremony.

The law provides that the “Ten Commandments” be displayed on posters or in a frame sufficiently “large and with a font adapted to be readable”.

The large American organization for the defense of freedoms ACLU immediately indicated that it would take the matter to court.

“The law violates the separation of church and state and is clearly unconstitutional,” she said in a statement.

The First Amendment to the United States Constitution prohibits the establishment of a national religion or the preference of one religion over another.

Other conservative states in the “Bible Belt” of the southern United States have attempted to adopt similar measures, but this is the first time a state has written it into law.
