thewayneI do so love irony.
The Supreme Court said a high school football coach could freely exercise his religion immediately after a game, when he has a captive audience, and pray to Christ. This guy wants to lead a Satanic prayer, I'm not quite sure what that is, at the 50 yard line - and will allow people plenty of time to leave. The comments to the article are great!
What is sauce for the goose is also sauce for the gander. Ramen! He's much like the people who run the Church of Satan, flipping political hypocrisy back on its head. More of this needs to be done. I really would like to see him challenged and it taken to the Supreme Court and their noses to be rubbed into it, but they would probably refuse to hear it and just remand it back to the lower level.

Date: 2022-07-15 04:22 am (UTC)I'm not sure which is worse, trying to eliminate the church/state barrier, or so many people convinced that the USA absolutely should be a Christian Nation, and they so much go hand in hand. There's an old joke that worked best when Dubya was President. George is asleep in bed and the phone rings. It's God. God says, "George, I have some news. I've decided that I am going to make the United States a Christian nation." George says "That's great! That's amazing! We'll make it a holiday with prayer, and feasting, and we'll pass that..." God interrupts and says "Now George, just hold on a sec. First I should let you know that I'm calling from Salt Lake City."

Both?
(If my back was against a wall with a gun to my head then the former is quite provably worse. You can't change how people think but until how they think becomes law arguably it doesn't much matter.)
They don't think the US should be a Christian nation because they're oh so religious, either, not at all (see: any and all references to TurboJesus for examples). They think it should be a Christian nation to further white patriarchal control of our society and of the nation. That's just one of several means by which they intend to seize and/or continue dominance.
