Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

Yeah, the idea isn't that church and state are matter/antimatter, but that the state shouldn't be used to direct people towards or away from any religion.
If the government establishes fair criteria for "school eligible for federal funding" then there's no reason those schools must be secular or of any particular religion.
Wait until some MAGAt groks that their tax dollars might go to a (((school))) or end up helping Muslims in some way.
TBF, this regime doesn't actually support any form of real education.
Honestly, they might save at least some of the youth doing it.

I wasnt going to have kids and the world keeps enforcing my decisions. If I had to deal with religion aimed at my kid I'd actually lose it 💀
He continued: “You can’t treat religious people and religious institutions and religious speech as second-class in the United States… And when you have a program that’s open to all comers except religion… that seems like rank discrimination against religion.”
No, you stupid cunt. Religious institutions are special snowflakes that enjoy tax-exempt status and steal billions of dollars from this country by existing. Now you want to give them billions more on top of it. Fuck you Brett Kavanaugh you treasonous piece of shit.
If you didn’t vote Harris, you voted for this.
There have been no new Supreme Court nominees since the election, so even if Harris had won, it would not have changed this.
Hey we don't know, maybe Harris would've expanded the Supreme Court!
Ok maybe we know.

Idiocracy was right about the future, but it looks to be isolated to the US.
you clearly didn’t see the results of the UK’s local elections today if you believe this.
Don't worry. If Labour shifts even harder to the right the voters will come back.
Right?
“You can’t treat religious people and religious institutions and religious speech as second-class in the United States”
If you’re teaching spiritual things then you’re not a top-class program. Stick to facts.
Facts are against their religion
America really is falling through, huh? Might just be best to dissolve the union and leave behind the garbage.
Conservatism is late stage cancer. You either lop it off or let it kill you
Religion in general is a cancer on societal progress.
I've said that, word for word. When I actually sit and think about it though, I think it's more like appendicitis. Religion once served a purpose (passing on of useful cultural norms and expectations), has become vestigial, and is now inflamed and likely to kill us (as a society and individually, in some cases)
Social / cultural norms don’t require belief systems and made up deities to function. Putting that magical thinking to it makes people fanatical and works against logic or ideological evolution. Religion has always worked against societal advancement. It was a collective delusion to soothe ancient fears of a world we could not comprehend. Clinging to it now is just a salve to people’s fear of death. It’s a weak minded cope to fragile egos who can’t stand that we are just animals and there is no greater purpose to our existence. It helps powerful people to get poor people to die for their causes and to manipulate emotions. It’s a disease against progress.

Well looking forward to publicly funded madrasas.
They might as well wipe their ass with the constitution because they care fuck all about it.
