OK, help me with this reading & yes I am new:
PC §46.035. UNLAWFUL CARRYING OF HANDGUN BY LICENSE
HOLDER.

(6) on the premises of a church, synagogue, or other established
place of religious worship.

You didn't read far enough. A few paragraphs further down, it says that a church, synagogue or other place of religious worship must post a 30.06 sign to keep CHL out, which means that the default position is that church carry is legal. Your instructor, if competent, should have pointed that out to you. In fact, a number of us not only carry in church, we carry on stage and in the pulpit in church.

EXCELLENT! .... and thank you two for a deeper understanding of how law is written, as well as real life carry practices.

I still need to post security vs. children (home, car, whatever) Texas law to gain equally good spotlighting & parsing.
