THIS Is why we need the separation of church and state.
Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick might want to re-read the New Testament before he speaks about Christianity. If anyone has risked his soul it is far-right "Christians" like Patrick, who have apparently sold their souls to Trump.
I love James Talarico, and given that the Roberts Court has put huge cracks in the wall separating church and state, Talarico seems to be a necessary counter to the far-right "Christian" nationalists who have taken over the GOP.
But I'd like to remind folks that THIS is why the Establishment Clause was written by our founders into the Constitution. Once one form of religion begins to be favored by the ruling class, fighting between and among religious groups will inevitably follow.
So suddenly we see conflict between the far-right "Christian" nationalists in the Trump administration and more moderate Christian leaders like Pope Leo XIV and Episcopal Bishop Mariann Edgar Budde.
So, of course, we now we have far-right "Christians" like Patrick attacking Talarico.
This should be a WAKE-UP CALL to the supposedly "Christian" SCOTUS conservatives to actually interpret the Constitution for ONCE like the "originalists" they claim to be, and start repairing the cracks that THEY MADE in the wall that separates church and state.
