I marvel at the insistence of "christians" that the 10 Commandments be posted in public places. Perhaps it would make more sense if Jewish folks wanted them displayed since they are from the Old Testament. Jesus morphed these rules into two - “Jesus replied: 'Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind. ' This is the first and greatest commandment. And the second is like it: 'Love your neighbour as yourself. ' All the Law and the Prophets hang on these two commandments."
You said it! Well done. Let me add: if your religion tells who you should vote for,,,,, run as fast as you can for the nearest exit, perhaps knock something over in the process, letting every worshipper know that it was you who fled, just might get some real attention.
Thank you so much for your wonderful articles! I shared a link to this one in my new article about whether we have ever really been a Christian nation or allowed freedom of religion: https://awakened2love.substack.com/p/a-christian-nation And now Oklahoma is joining in with Louisiana! That's where I went to school. smh
My guess is that they'd say, "f*** 'em." Thus cursing our Muslim brothers and sisters as we, plus the Jewish people, are all children of Abraham and the thus the same God. One would be inclined to think they never read the Bible or went to church.
Great Subtrack & spot on!! When I was a child in elementary school, we all had to stand up and resist "The Pledge of Allegiance" and then sing afterward. During saying the "pledge" we had to put our hands over our hearts. I didn't even realize when it got banned! Then I sorta missed it some.

"I dunno" are the truest words you wrote. Live under Sharia Law. Live under God's law. See which one lets you live, now and for eternity.
Amen!
