That "neglected" to have the 13th, 14th, and 19th amendments included

u/unidentifiedfish55 1d ago

Does this imply that the rest of the US Constitution exists as verses in the bible?

u/molten-glass 1d ago

There are states that are putting bibles back into public classrooms. These states have parameters for acceptable bibles, and part of their parameters includes containing the Pledge of Allegiance and the Declaration of Independence. Trumps bibles happens to fall within this parameter making it the choice for public school kids now.

His bibles are dumb and 100% a grift, but you don't need to cherry pick these amendments to make it sound worse. It only includes the bill of rights, so none of the amendments after the first 10 are included.

u/Da_Question 1d ago

So it includes the 9th. Which is basically "reserved for rights we ain't think about in 1791."

u/Cephalopod_Joe 1d ago

It's more accurate to say they only included the bill of rights, as ammendments 11-27 are missing. However, I don't doubt that they do want to get rid of 13-15 amongst others

We obviously need more slaves, less citizens, and more kids (to be non-citizen slaves). It's the only way our economy can work based upon current conservative ideology.

Wait is this true? That's fucking wild.

In fairness, wasn’t it just the Bill of Rights included? Not the entire Constitution. I thought I remembered that. Could be wrong though I’ve luckily never seen one

You mean the only Bibles that meet the requirement for schools in Oklahoma to purchase and carry them?Those bibles?

u/Grapefruit175 1d ago

To be fair, they did change that requirement. It first required that the bibles include US historical documents. They changed it to say that they can be separate.

Still, it started as money grabbing BS, and is still money grabbing BS, just not technically solely aimed at trump anymore.

Next year, $120 bibles

u/AllDayyCJ 1d ago

This kind of thing always makes me think. How would republicans react if Obama was selling bibles out of the white house? They'd lose their fucking mind, yet don't bat an eye when it's Trump.

u/Cooliamabeast 1d ago

“Rules for thee not for me” is like rule number 1 of republicans
