But also, who is so interested in sextuplets still?

Please. We have a secular home, and our child is one of the kindest, most compassionate human beings I have ever known. We regularly package food at the Food Bank, volunteer at other institutions, and donate to several charities. Even though there is no god in our lives.
Do you vehemently oppose hearing the word "god" in public? Do you have contempt for people who go to church and are religious? Do you actively dissuade people from admitting that they believe in God? Do you make fun of them for their religious beliefs? If so, that sucks of you.
Yes. And please be honest - you don’t mean ‘God’ meaning any number of god’s that various people worship, but ‘Jesus Christ’ the one you worship only. It’s all about you and your narrow beliefs and yes that needs to be 100% out of school and government.

I have stopped saying God when I say the pledge. That is MY choice. Actually, I am getting to a point that I may not say the pledge anymore because the words are such bullshit. This stand for the pledge and you must stand at attention for the anthem stuff is UN-American, as far as I am concerned.
Religion does NOT belong in schools. I have no problem with people who are religious. And if they choose to say a prayer to themselves in school or whatever privately, that is fine. But teaching it and proselytizing is NOT OK in a public school classroom.

Exactly. When society allowed God in schools there was also lots of corporal punishment and shaming.

Wow. I have never needed to worship Jesus or any other false deity in order to have morals or be a good person. 9/11 didn't happen because God isn't 'allowed' in schools or other public settings and people who think like that are ignorant af.
These are the same idiots who want to blame school shootings on taking god out of schools
I don't send my children to school for bible study anymore than you do but people have gotten wacky about keeping God out of school to the point where they are no longer saying The Pledge of Allegiance at school because it contains the word God.
I can't make other people go to church or believe in God. Heck, I rarely go to church these days myself. But I find it bizarre how vehemently some people oppose any mention of God in our schools or any other public place. If somebody dares sing "God Bless America" some people look like they've been scalded by holy water. The outright contempt....
Sorry, it's weird and unsettling. And, yes, I do think that bad things happen when people start forgetting the lessons of the bible -whether or not you take them literally or figuratively.
