Religion is a belief. School curriculum is made based on facts and experiments over time. They should not be combined.
It’s funny that they clearly aren’t considering that religions other than theirs also exist. That’s the whole point of the Separation of Church and State. Your arbitrary religious views have no place in government or governance or public spaces… because others have other beliefs, many of which likely stand in stark contrast to yours, and the permutations are endless. Leaving your religious biases out of public life allows us all to coexist.
But lets ignore that and see what happens. Looking forward to The Satanic Temple having a presence in all public schools. Maybe muslims can get the Five Pillars and Buddhists can get the Noble Truths… and we’re just getting started.
Oh goody! We are one step closer to sharia law!
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 💀
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.
I hope the Satanic temple will be opening a charter school in Oklahoma soon.
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.
Hellenism school: EVERYTHING IS GAY AND NOW LETS THINK AND PARTY
Be gay

Do math
Be gay do drugs hail Satan
HAIL SATAN!
How far we’ve fallen.
We kept the pedophilia and lost the fun bits. THANKS JESUS
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.
Well looking forward to publicly funded madrasas.
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.
Upvoting to counter the spineless cowards who enabled Nazi America.
If you voted for Harris you voted for genocide. People who abstained did not.
Found the Russian propaganda bot!
Username checks out.
You bit hard into the propaganda campaign for this.
You had two choices, bad or worse.
You chose neither and allowed worse to win.
Get down off your high horse, this does not make you morally superior, it makes you an idiot.
I do not care. Tell Democrats to stop doing genocide instead of telling people to vote for it.
When you can’t buy anything in the stores you will definitely care.
When you’re starving to death in your own house you won’t be thinking about genocide anymore.
Stop burying your head in the sand.
Basically what you just said is it’s bad that democrats do genocide but when republicans do it then it’s fine.
Basically you said you do not care about genocide unless it happens to you.
Ah so you think you are innocent because you didn’t vote.
No. That makes you complacent. You let Trump win by not voting which is the same as voting for Trump.
People like you are why Trump is president.
What a brain dead take. Not only do you STILL have genocide, you also have a president who is going to destroy this country. All because you couldn’t lift your lazy fat ass off the couch.
If you didn’t, then you got us genocide+™.
You and those who took your route are virtue signaling morons. But at least you can look down your nose at the rest of us while our democracy crumbles and our rights are stripped away.
the genocide was also part of the tRump package, worse actually
No, I didn’t vote for either. It was pretty easy to vote against Harris, while also voting against this. Maybe next time the Dems should run a candidate that at least pretends to care about what the voters want. That tends to help in elections.

All of this I agree with. Unfortunately it won’t happen until all the neolibs are run out of the party.
But trying to pretend like you didn’t directly elect a dictator by “abstaining” is not only absurd, but ethically reprehensible. Much of life is about choosing between lesser evils and lesser pains. Letting the worst options win because a perfect one doesn’t (and cannot) exist makes you a deliberate, willing accomplice.
I would accept that in 2016. This time around you dipshits knew what the result of your apathy would be and did it anyway.
“Next time”.
Good luck with that. Chump.
So you’ll never say lesser evil again, right? Since there won’t be a next time?
What’s your goal right now?
I would like you to say that you won’t vote lesser evil next time, since you believe the idea of a “next time” is laughable and are probably an honest person.
You’re going to have to connect the dots for me, I’m kind of stupid. Why would I do that?
Why not? It’s not like next time is going to happen, right?
Too young to vote huh?

sun-worshippers will start teaching kids their dangerous nazi ideology… America is lost
How about we , the people, just don’t fucking do what they say. Trump’s an illegal president
“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.
The supernatural claims are just a byproduct of the mechanism that passed along the creation myths and cultural norms. It would be great if that wasn’t how it happened, but it did. Rational people can agree at this point that the magical thinking is a net negative for society, but IMO, to ignore that there were some positives to come along with religion is the same sort of blind denial that religious folks use.
It was a collective delusion to soothe ancient fears of a world we could not comprehend
Agreed, but can’t you see that that was an advantage during the formative ages of society and civilization?
I can say it was a way to reach an end, but it wasn’t the only way to reach that end. Society in the formative ages could have just as easily organized around collective strength and pack principals instead of magical thinking. It served some purpose, but it was a poor way to reach that end. It is a net negative on humanity, but it’s how we got here so we have to deal with its corrosive residue in society today.
Agreed, that’s my whole point. It was not the ideal way to get where we are, but it’s how it happened. There was a… I don’t want to say purpose, but “benefit,” might be the right word.
If we were designing things from scratch, then obviously religion would be left out. But it’s an unfortunate accident of the evolution of consciousness and evolution of civilization that certain societal benefits were included with the magical thinking. Just like the health of the human gut biome is tied to the existence of the appendix, even through the appendix doesn’t provide much in the way of direct benefits these days and can become inflamed and kill us.
It’s accelerating very fast
I think if we were sent a history book from the year 2200, we would see that history has determine the US was already effectively gone by this point. Most just don’t see it yet. What’s left for us to figure out is where we go from here. So far, I don’t like the chance it is a better country or world.
Oh I agree, it’s been on a downwards spiral for a while, I was just saying how it’s sped up it’s descent.
Saint Luigi deliver us from these horrible “justices”
