Hi! Resolutions are not the same as laws. These types of “feel good legislation is done at or near holidays such as Easter” they are not laws and cannot be enforced and therefore have no need to be adjudicated.

Nope. In fact, referring to it as 'flyover country' is why they're so mad at, well, everyone. See, everybody else was mean to them first and is trying to destroy their something something, cramming something down their throats, inarticulate rage, etc.

Oathbreakers

isomorphism.net•20 hours ago

It still boggles my mind that nobody points this out when they do this.

They swore an oath on their own holy book to obey the law of the land, which includes said first amendment, and are breaking it.

Putting their own will above not just the state, but the God they profess to follow.

Apostates

isomorphism.net•20 hours ago

If you believe in the version of Satan that they profess to believe in, this is actually the oldest sin - predating the apple. Putting your will above all else.

This is how they should be characterized. Not because I believe all this but because their followers do.

gawdz0rz.bsky.social•23 minutes ago

they don’t see it as breaking their oaths. their justification is that the founders wanted it this way, that it was the original intent.

Freedom and upholding biblical authority are quite often in total opposition, historically. Peace is as well, if you look at the number of times war was waged against others, including other Christians, in the name of Biblical authority.

Right, as Christians if we really follow Christ, we know we need to individually repent of our sins AND we should never need to impose that as a law, because we know that religious laws have no power. Only God’s son as the power to free us from religious laws. Romans 7:4
