No, we don’t. We can point out things that are fundamentally wrong.

You don't have a right not to be offended.
We are a country of free speech and freedom of religion.
Not in this case.
What religion is being established here?
Virgina hasn't had a state church in a couple hundred years.
Christianity is being shoved down people’s throats by government officials in public places.
I don't see an endorsement of any particular God there.
Do you think the religious extremist legislatures were thinking of a different god?
It’s not “in allah we trust” or “in Zeus we trust”.
God doesn't have to refer to the Christian God by any means. I also don't think Mark Warner is a religious extremist either.
Bob Marshall, the Republican who introduced the bill, is a religious extremist.
And he certainly meant the Christian god.

I love all the constitutional scholars who have no idea what the constitution actually says.

Actually, in the US expressing your religious views is constitutionally prltected, including on public property. Including in schools. You can pray publicly, wear crosses or hijabs or a Star of David necklace or carry around a Bible or talk about Krishna to anyone who will listen, anywhere, on any public property, including schools, with no restrictions, and no interference by anyone in the government.
Freedome of religion and freedom of speech are so important in this country that they are enshrined in the afirst Amendment of our Constitution.
Let’s see what happens if a government official tries to put up a “worship satan” sign in a public building.
I think the satanic temple has a couple of sculptures on public land.
But no Satanic signs in schools.
“Freedom of Religion” is a farce. It’s “We Will Shove Our Personal Religion Down Your Throats”. Just look at the SCOTUS. Disgusting.

Didn’t see anything when the school board sent a message to all parents about how we unanimously support the BLM movement and had it written all over schools. Hm.
