Trump rally?

I'm a conservative and a Christian, but her doing that seemed to me to be awfully close to an endorsement of Christianity.

Any other conservatives bothered by it?

Yes and no. I think it was to trigger the left which is always fun but I'd prefer she not get involved in the triggering.

What's her religion? Slovenia is dominantly Roman Catholic. Though her father was a member of the Communist Party of Yugoslavia.

not really. It's an expression of good will.

It's not anymore an endorsement of Christianity than when LSU plays Amazing grace in death valley to honor a serviceman.

Nope. I found it refreshing. And I'm not a Christian.

It's true her father was a member of good standing of the Communist Party of Yugoslavia and Slovenia is Roman Catholic. Tito was pretty tolerant of religion.

No. Just condescending bullshite from the Trump camp because they know their base. None of them believe in that stuff.

I only hate it because the prayer assumes God's gender. It triggers me badly. Even this thread makes me need a xanax.

No more than God on our coinage and prayers to open the House sessions.
