Yes, I remember being a child and hearing in VBS that one day God will send (a or) The Great Orange Pumpkin to save us. Or maybe it was a Charlie Brown episode.

Yet another reminder that religious credentials don’t equal moral authority.

Preaching ‘family values’ while harming others is the real immorality. Beware those who use faith as a shield for hypocrisy.
Zach Radcliff is a Liberty U. graduate. He led worship at a Michigan church. He performed at CPAC. He loves Donald Trump. He thinks LGBTQ people are inherently "immoral."

And he now faces life in prison for sexually abusing children.

🚨 School vouchers are a taxpayer-funded pipeline to religious institutions. 🚨

Public money should fund public schools, not religious indoctrination.
Percent of school vouchers that go to religious institutions (schools and the churches that run them):

Florida - 82%
Arizona ESP - 87% (older AZ program: 96%)
North Carolina - 92%
Ohio - 91%
Wisconsin - 96%
Indiana - 98%
Billions in taxpayer dollars now go to religious schools via vouchers
The rapid expansion of state voucher programs follows court decisions that have eroded the separation between church and state.

The U.S. Constitution—not the Bible—is the foundational document of our government. Enshrining religious doctrine in law undermines both democracy and religious freedom.

This is Christian Nationalism in action, and we will do everything we can to stop it.
Republicans in West Virginia want to amend the state's constitution to declare that the Bible is a "divinely inspired, inerrant foundational document for our society and government."

This is what Christian Nationalism looks like.
