Someone posted today that Texas wants to allow religion in science classes

A teacher wanted to teach creationism as well as evolution. Her compliant should reside with the federal government although I am sure she would never think of it that way. The fact is that we ,as a country, learned today that the US government is run by social Darwinists who believe that the weak, the elderly, the disabled, the youth should be culled from the herd by the richest among us. The rich are believed to be the strongest in this capitalist country.

Amongst all of this is the deadly silence of so called evangelical Christianity. They supported this iron hearted regime and have birthed, not a second appearance of Christ, but a Moloch demanding the sacrifice of the weakest.

I truly believe the government of the us bears a message of ill will to the people it should serve. In this time when the Secretary of State dangles nuclear war above our heads and Bannon composes his symphony of destruction, evangelicals gladly join in this dance macabre.

I didn't realize this was a sarcastic song until today."Crown thy good with brotherhood from sea to shining sea". I hold evangelicals in extra low regard- their actions spoke so much louder than what they say they believe.

Ps-here is a fart for Franklin Graham!

in school, they can send their kids to a RELIGIOUS school. Texas cannot force christian mythology on a secular, multicultural PUBLIC school.

God, I can't believe how stupid this country is getting!
