Not all religions worship a God. Some worship man, men, or flawed ideas.


So why is it that only those that worship a god get tax exemptions?

This is what makes me think we are in for some end times shite. Maybe not in our lifetime, but next 150+ years?

Society is wholly rejecting the teachings of Christ and fully embracing every evil, as vile as pedophilia.

Never thought I would see this in my lifetime.

Freedom of religion has been turned on its head for decades. It was never intended to drive all things religious from the public square.

Publishers Sales Meeting

Baw2 “No idiot, let’s put out some soft feelers at some of these drag-hour libraries, create some red-meat divisive media while the rage-iron is still hot with mouthbreathers that eat this shite up, sell 5,000 books”

The parents of the poor kids who allowed the kids to sit through this shite should have their parental rights terminated. And the parents should be sterilized as well for good measure.

Please define "separation of church and state". Once you do that, then retype your post.

Because most churches do not make a profit, and are charitable organizations.

No to Kirk Cameron's books to kids, but yes for the circus hour brainwashing kids? This country is beyond fricked and sick.

Incessant proselytizing and grifting are largely responsible for this.

“Separation" is not in the Bill of Rights or the rest of the constitution at all, much less separation of church and state. Kirk Cameron having a story hour slot at a public library is not congress establishing an official national religion, or even the beginnings of it.

Surely you know there are a lot of different types of organizations that qualify for tax exemption that are not affiliated with religion or god at all. I might add they account for less charitable works than Christian churches, but I digress.

There is nothing more sure in the mind of an atheist than he is smarter than the sky daddy believers which is ironic considering the exceptionally ignorant posts in this topic.

“Inclusivity” as long as you think the same I do. Embrace “Diversity of thought” unless you think differently than me.

Why do you need to set up an appointment? Just go in and start reading the fricking book

Yep. All it says is there can’t be a state religion, which is a good thing.
It goes on to expressly protect the free expression of religion, in much more robust terms than the preceding clause.

I don't want to spend an hour with Kirk Cameron or drag queens, but I'd show up for The Nuge.
