Florida Just Handed $15 Million to Catholic Schools

Just remember this is pure pushing the Christian religion and denying that same money to public schools.  And if you watch the video the church is hoping this is only a drop in the bucket they can get.  Remember these churches don’t pay taxes, and they are not under state laws on what they teach.  The don’t allow the general public who pay those taxes including the LGBTQ+.  They discriminate against these and other groups due to religious beliefs, and they refuse the enrollment of the disabled because that cuts into their profit.  This is a money-making scheme designed to suck public taxpayer money from public schools while not being required to serve all students or pay into the funds they want given to them.  This is just an attempt to push religious schools while denying needed funds to public schools.  These people want a Christian nationalist nation, and they demand the rest of us pay for it.  They have no concern for the truth of history or anyone else’s beliefs; it is their god pushed at your money while you get no services or money for your local schools.   Great video I hope you will watch. And I can tell you as an atheist in Florida I am against this hard drive desire of DeathSantis to force his religious views onto me and the children of this state.   After all he helped his wife steal a huge amount of money meant for a charity to help sick people and use it for their gain.   Hugs 

John Fugelsang: Reclaiming Jesus’ Teachings

I love this video.  John Fugelsang is a wonderful person to elaborate on the bible and he does so as a follower of Jesus, not Paul or the Old Testament.  His mother was a nun and his father was a monk and the way he describes his father wearing his robes is as the Christian jedi of Flatbush.  He explains how those using the bible to attack or bash others including the LGBTQ+ are not following Jesus that they are following Paul.  He explains clearly how Jesus brought a new covenant for the people doing away with the old one in Leviticus.  He explained how those using the bible to bash others and not feed  & clothe the stranger/ immigrant are totally against what Jesus preached.   He also mentioned how those trying to force the Old Testament of the bible in schools never want the words of Jesus hung in classrooms in public schools, they never want the sermon on the mount posted on the walls.   Those kind of people only want authoritarian laws or do and dont do pushed on kids.   Enjoy the video, I listen to him on The Daily Beans (news with swearing) friday newscast and his Sirius talk show.  Hugs

What do you think about the 10 COMMANDMENTS in Louisiana classrooms?

Another great one from the Reverend.  This time he talks about how these bills mandating commandments be placed every where in schools are about creating obedient people, not thinking people, not religious people.  People who follow what they are told to do and believe.  Hugs
