[@givemeahappyending]

I’ll tell you what, up until I stumbled across Talarico’s sermon about Christian nationalism a few days ago, the declaration of any action, person, concept or otherwise, identified as being “Christian”, immediately made me… skeptical, at least. Usually though, thanks to fundamentalists that refuse to see, acknowledge and accept truth, science, and… I don’t know, little things like, the US Constitution, hearing anything identified as “Christian” just plain pissed me off. I don’t know how Mr. Talarico came to be the man he is, but he is a blessing to his community, to his state, and most importantly, his religion. He’s given me a different perspective on what being Christian can mean. I still feel that flicker of disgust when I think of someone or something being Christian, the woman fighting for that bill is a perfect example as to why. But thanks to Mr. Talarico I can actually see a glimmer of light and hope behind the dark, foreboding wall I’ve come to believe is Christianity for the last 25+ years, almost half of my life. I’m grateful he’s out there doing what he’s doing. I would happily walk myself into a church to hear him speak. And that’s not something I’ve ever thought I’d think or say before, not even once.

[@StopWhining491]

Love your narrative style.

I believe we have the same thoughts in this regard. Was raised southern baptist. The old fire and brimstone teaching. The blatant hypocrisy of the followers pushed me towards atheism for many years. At some point I started daily meditations and eventually became more aligned with agnosticism. Remaining disgusted with Christianity all the while. If Mr. Talarico had been my preacher when I was growing up, I probably never would have left the Christian faith. He gives me hope! Hope that Christianity can be a light in this dark world, rather than casting shade on so many with their judgements meant to be for their god alone.

@@Chaotic_Order wouldn’t that make make the world a better place? I sure wish they’d figure that out, start acting the way they preach. But nooooo, they’re so swept into their church-fed narrative of fear, disgust, and judgement, they can’t see the hypocrisy for what it is.

Representative Talarico makes excellent points. The Government may NOT show preference to one religion over others.

[@Alblaka]

Next to the fact the bible very literally states not to force your believes onto others, also from a more meta standpoint: If you truly believe your religion to be the best and most correct one... then why would you need anyone or anything to enforce a preference? Wouldn't the bestest religion automatically garner the voluntary belief of everyone it is presented to? By enforcing a religion, you're admitting to it's weakness and to your own lack of faith. As Talarico said, that would make it a dead religion. "He who must say 'I am king' is no king."

[@JamesLTyreeII]

@@Alblaka that is correct. Good point! When our religion has to have a army of sales people to push it, it’s not that good of a religion.

I’m a native Texan, a vet, and a recovering Free Will Baptist. It was the faith I was brought up in, the faith of my parents, and no surprise to anyone who was born in East Texas and had parents raised there. It was my faith until mid 30s, and I took it seriously and tried to spread and defend it. It was just what you did, what you were called to do. Now, in my late 40s, pushing 50, I can tell you that the best thing I ever did in my life was questioning WHY I believed the things I once did. I have done a lot of things, some impressive, others stupid, as we all have. But I don’t regret for one second shaking off a belief in a made up god and all the needless fear, anxiety, hypocrisy, false pride, pious humility, and cognitive dissonance that maintained it. Life is better when you can deal with it clear headed. Happiness is assured to no one. They can’t promise to you, though they try. But I can say reality is a much less scary place when you stop denying it and deal with it. I don’t need these people to use the government of Texas to push their beliefs on me. Let them think and live their lives as they will. But I don’t need to be told about my new car warranty every day by the government.

*Thank you so much for protecting the religious beliefs of all* I am an Ex-elementary school PTA President from the Dallas Lakewood area where the local privet Catholic school filled up, so they tried taking over Dan D Rogers Elementary School in the early 2000s. In the end, the issues you are here addressing are ground work for the normalization of religious peer pressure on our youth of all faiths. One type of Catholic (for instance) is not like all others, meaning it's a individual local Church expansion and recruitment motive. Both of the groups mentioned were both Catholic, yet not of the same building, priest or even faith, as both were of a differing race of that faith, one from Hispanic culture, the other from a predominantly white suburbia. The moment we see the bedrock of our American Constitution diluted to make accommodations for neighborhood sects, the more our public schools appear as race based issues when addressed, distracting from their basic educational mission's plight. Signed: Ex-PTA, El-Presidente de' Dan D Rogers Elementary School. (El Presidente is just the name the kids gave me that year as I was fund raising I'm actually a white guy and likely the last "guy" to have held that office.
