Rep. Michael Petersen's bill, H.B. 269, proposing to require public schools in Utah to display the Ten Commandments, is deemed unconstitutional and a waste of time by the author. The bill conflicts with the First Amendment and contradicts the Utah code on religious endorsements, sparking criticism for advancing a right-wing authoritarian worldview and being incongruent with the country's legal, political, and ethical ideals.
