The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

1. This is the land of opportunity.
2. Swear allegiance to it and obey its laws.
3. Adopt our shared culture of hard work, and you will be rewarded with success especially as your generations grow.


I'd agree.

But nowhere is there the expectation that everyone become either Christian or Jewish.

Contrast your message above with this administration that is administratively sending an entirely different message.

This administration is setting up a structure that favors Christianity.

Or more precisely, it favors a <p>particular strain of Christianity.

Of course I would argue that there is nothing "Christian" about the strain of Christianity it favors.

But, as elan says.... we all have our rights. I have no problem with someone being a Christian, or even a fundamentalist or evangelical Christian. I know many and most are fine people.

But when they enlist the government in a project of co-opting the government into enforcing their particular understanding of Christianity on the rest of us.... we have a problem.
