Hence The Secular Hub! @secularhub.org
New data suggests Gen Z's religious decline has stalled—but is this ‘faith resilience’ or a response to loneliness?

Many young people seek belonging, and churches exploit that.

Let's build secular communities that offer support without superstition.

This week on the Late Show with Stephen Colbert, Seth Meyers revealed he's an atheist and doesn't believe in the afterlife:

"I think this is it...I don't think there's anything after we die, but that is why you gotta find it here...You gotta make everything here count."

This is a clear violation of the Constitution and we’re pretty sure that nonprofits don’t get to introduce bills, even in Idaho.
The Idaho Family Policy Center is planning to introduce a bill requiring that 20 verses of the Bible be read in public school classrooms daily.

The organization is a religious lobbying group aiming to force Christian ideology into public school classrooms.

No matter how many times Christian Nationalists repeat the lie, it doesn't change the fact: The Bible is not a foundational text of American history and doesn't deserve any special status in public school curricula.

And targeting elementary schoolchildren with this indoctrination is heinous.
Texas is on the verge of shoving Bible lessons in public elementary schools. (A final vote is scheduled for Friday.)

I wrote about what it'll look like when conservatives push Christian mythology on millions of children.
