Shouldn’t Church and State doctrine (or whatever it is called) immediately make all of this illegal?
It’s not mixing the two, it’s a founding document of our nation, and what our society is based on. /probably
As someone who is at least a bit religious, get that blasphemy out of the Bible, don’t allow that blasphemer to profit off religion, and whatever you do, get such blasphemy out of the school. Being the state with the 49th best education is not a good thing, nor is aspiring to 50th
It's probably purposely designed to create a court case so the Supreme Court can hollow out that principle.
I will give credit to Republicans on this. They spent decades playing thre ong game with the judiciary. Now, that Republicans achieve their goal. They are now engineering facts to get cases to SCOTUS. The only way to play, is don't appeal cases. Leave the cases at the trial level or first level appeal.
Fix the judiciary, then start taking these fucks all the to top.
You haven't ever been to OK have you?
Marrying your cousin is also supposedly "illegal"
Yep! That’s why they’re counting on, throwing enough dollars at the conservative judges that they will let this theocratic bullshit stand.
Fuck them and anyone who supports their religion
