A friend of mine posted this (see below) and I could be wrong but I believe he's a Christian......


This is the US Department of State's website, right now, and it is an explicit endorsement of a single religion in a pluralistic country that isn't supposed to be doing this. At all. I don't need to remind you, but clearly these Neanderthal cryptotheofascists need a reminder.
Call them and insist that they take it down, or that they feature one of the over 300 religions in the US, every day for as long as it takes.
The State Department public comment line is (202) 647-6575. You have to wade through a bunch of options. I think the general public mailbox is option 8. Spread this. Flood them with calls and emails. There are a lot of things to be concerned about right now but this one cuts deep.
Thank you Alberto Gaitán for posting this.

On Friday, in a closed-door speech at the University of Notre Dame, Attorney General William P. Barr talked at length about a “campaign to destroy the traditional moral order.”

The alleged perpetrator of this campaign?

“Militant secularists,” who insist upon keeping government institutions free from the influence of any faith or creed.

To be clear: This was not merely an affirmation — delivered by a devout Catholic, while visiting a Catholic university — of how privately taught religious values can contribute to character development or stronger communities.

No. This appeared to be a tacit endorsement of theocracy.

Amid calling for greater freedom of religion, Barr also called for religion (his religion) to infiltrate government at all levels. He specifically decried the fact that “public agencies — including public schools — are becoming secularized.”

Militant secularism, he said, is to blame for the country’s greatest ills, including drug use, mental illness and “an increase in senseless violence.” Given such crises, Barr urged his audience to fight back against “so-called ‘progressives’ ” and others who insist upon respecting America’s pesky, constitutionally mandated separation of church and state.

“This is not decay,” Barr said. “It is organized destruction. Secularists, and their allies among the ‘progressives,’ have marshalled all the force of mass communications, popular culture, the entertainment industry, and academia in an unremitting assault on religion and traditional values.”

Somebody needs to tell the Defender General that the United States is a secular state.

I posted about this earlier, the recording of a phone call between Lindsey Graham and who he thought was the Turkish Defense Minister, where Lindsey gets punked by a couple of Russians. Lindsey tells them that helping Erdogan with his bank problem is high on Trump's list. And, it just got worse:

Yeah but, "Hunter Biden!"

"Drain the swamp" my ass.

Even if none of the names rings a bell, read to the end. The conflicts are unbelievable.

No wonder Barr and our DOJ are functioning as Trump's personal attorneys.

but we’re all supposed to believe there are no conflicts (at minimum) there...

smh

No collusion, no quid pro quo, no conflicts, no payoffs to porn stars and playboy models.

Got it.

The president awards himself a large government contract, i.e., "awards himself our taxes", and "little Marco Rubio" surprises no one.

Flynn has to be the worst gambler there is.

He would maybe lose at Indian Poker.

Matt Gaetz and the Insane Clown Freedom Posse force their way into the SCIF during a witness' testimony, with cell phones taking pictures, because they can't argue the facts. So, they are trying to make the Process the thing, and not Trump and his Administration's behavior.

Like I've said before: Fuck them.
