    I know of no conservatives who want a government established religion. As a matter of fact I can think of no such liberal either....., well at least outside the religion of global warming maybe.

    it seems difficult to even have a discussion with some people, who confuse organized religion with God, i know of many who could be better classified as "spiritual" than religious, and overall these people have "better" morals than the religious ones...SAME goes for our "war on drugs" these same people cant distinguish between the prohibtion cause effects and actual effects from drugs...it seems pointless to talk when we cant even get past the rightwing headlines and define the facts

    MTG came straight out and said she was a Christian Nationalist. Lauren Boebert said: "I'm tired of this separation of church and state junk."

    Here's another one I've tried hard to forget but somehow just can't:

    "It's an honest mistake, assuming that the Constitution only protects your own personal megachurch faith. But one Louisiana Republican is learning the hard way that religious school vouchers can be used to fund education at all sorts of religious schools, even Muslim ones. And while she's totally in favor of taxpayer money being used to pay for kids to go to Christian schools, she's willing to put a stop to the entire program if Muslim schools are going to be involved.


    Valarie Hodges admitted that when she supported Governor Bobby Jindal's school voucher program, she only did so because she assumed the religious school vouchers could only be used for Christian schools. Religious freedom means that everyone's free to follow Valarie Hodges' religion!"

    https://jezebel.com/republican-horrified-to-discover-that-christianity-is-n-5923898

    Q.E.D.

    It's out there and you don't have to look too hard to find it.

    As George Burns, playing God in the movie Oh God, said, "I don't like religion."

    This is all interesting and well and good, but has nothing to do with a government established religion ala the 1st amendment.

    the problem with liberals, is that they love to ask questions, and give very little answers. or none. They're like a player, talking to a woman on a dating site, giving one word, or a sentence or less, for each answer, and most of them have very little substance, because much like their politicians, they stand for nothing. lmao!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    The Republicans haven't even fronted a policy platform since Trump's second term (apart from hail to the leader), so that's a bit rich.

    It's assuming, in essence, that that is already the case.

    Seems to me that many hold that assumption. The lady in question was an elected representative. She really should know better.

    Well people vote them into power and they know what they stand for. They're not exactly backward in coming forward.

    Stand for? Oh we know what the GOP stand for, gutting taxes on the richest, over and over. Denying benefits to service members, Denying a cap on insulin costs. Denying the ability to negotiate pharmaceutical costs, which is why the GOP passed Medicare Part D in the middle of the night, without a single penny in funding, of course!

    Sorry didn't know you were a Trump Humper

    Care to point to any substantive bill Trump passed in 4 years, besides the tax cut for the richest he campaigned against?

    Trump: My tax plan is 'going to cost me a fortune'

    "For the wealthy, I think, frankly, it's going to go up. And you know what? It really should go up." — NBC's Meet the Press, May 7 2016


    "You all just got a lot richer," Trump tells friends, referencing tax overhaul Dec 24, 2017

    I think God is real, and am spiritual. Those whom wish to be religious, and go to church, that is their Constitutional right.

    Well, when they're allowed, and that right isn't taken away by Democrat Politicians.

    Why is bill gates getting involved with Pharmaceuticals? last time I checked he new nothing about them, and didn't have a degree in them.

    gutting taxes on the rich? do you mean people like Jeffrey Bezzos, the richest person in the World, and the owner of Amazon, and a liberal donor? Or do you mean places like Walmart, which is one of the biggest retail stores in the World, where Hillary clinton was on the board of?

    Or do you mean the companies like Coca-cola that caved to the political correctness of the America liberal Democrat politicians, and did what they wanted, by moving the all star game from Georgia to colorado?

    you're obviously blind to thee real truth, which is, Liberal Democrat Politicians are thee elites! and are simply psychologically projecting that upon the republicans, and their politicians.

    Or AOC wearing a 10 thousand dollar activist gown to some stupid public event, when that money could have gone to food for children, in other countries instead? yes, republicans bad, and democrats so good. lmao!

    I am not a politician or a democrat, but I don't want YOUR gawd telling me how to live. Especially since I actually died once, and while I can say with certainty that our consciousness survives our physical death, I can also say with certainty that the personality that you worship, and wish to impose on others does NOT exist.

    There are also entire swaths of the galaxy that's never heard of the gawd of the buybull (or the whole book itself), and there are other entire galaxies that haven't "heard the good news". Plus we live many many lives, and you may even be gay next time.

    But don't worry, you won't spend eternity in boiling oil ️ if you are.
