LA Rev Stat § 25:1281 (2021)
2021 Louisiana Laws|Revised Statutes|Title 25 - Libraries, Museums, and Other Scientific|§1281. Legislative finding

RS 1281 - Legislative finding The Legislature of Louisiana finds that: (1) There is a need to educate and inform the public as to the history and background of American and Louisiana law. (2) America and Louisiana's religious history plays an important role in the background of our American and Louisiana law. (3) The role of religion in the constitutional history of both America and Louisiana is acknowledged by historians. (4) The basic knowledge of American legal history is important to the formation of civic virtue in our society. (5) The courts have provided vital direction to the Legislature of Louisiana on how to approach the display of historical documents. (6) The Legislature of Louisiana now endorses the prolongation of a uniform, sound, distinct, and appropriate presentation of the story of the role of religion in the constitutional history of America and Louisiana, which may be publicly displayed in court houses and other state and local buildings throughout the state of Louisiana. Acts 2006, No. 602, §1.
LA Rev Stat § 25:1283 (2021)
2021 Louisiana Laws|Revised Statutes|Title 25 - Libraries, Museums, and Other Scientific|§1283. Context of public display

RS 1283 - Context of public display Public displays set forth in R.S. 25:1282(B), (C), (D), and (E) shall be accompanied by a document entitled "Context for Acknowledging America's Religious History" which shall read as follows: (1) Some documents stand out as pivotal in the religious history of America and Louisiana's legal system, among which are the Mayflower Compact, The Declaration of Independence as a legal foundation for the United States Constitution, the Ten Commandments as one of the foundations of our legal system, and the Northwest Ordinance, which was a primary document affirming faith and the first congressional act legally prohibiting slavery. It is hoped that their study and relation to each other and the history of our state and nation will foster an appreciation for the role that religion has played in the legal history of America and the state of Louisiana and prompt further public study. (2) American law, constitutionalism, and political theory have deep roots in religion. American ideals about liberty, freedom, equality, legal responsibility and codes of law, to mention a few, have roots and underpinnings in religion and biblical literacy. The Ten Commandments, which are found in the Book of Exodus in the Old Testament of the Bible, was one of the earliest written expressions of law to be incorporated in American legal systems. The Ten Commandments, or the law of nature, also impacted the Declaration of Independence which refers to the "laws of nature and of Nature's God." Acts 2006, No. 602, §1.
