States cannot tax citizens for evangelistic purposes. It is well-established in the courts. It is a violation of the establishment clause and a gross violation (yes, I said a violation) of religious freedom…you know, to practice a religion that isn’t a Judeo-Christian one. Facts.
i long for the day people will stop using “judeo-christian” to refer to things that are exclusively christian and have absolutely nothing to do with judaism
It’s not about the bible at all. It’s about fundamentalist conservatives trying to make their fundamentalism more palatable to the masses. Lots of conservative ideals don’t mesh with Judaism at all, so they mask those ideals by hiding them within the shared history of both religions.
ah yeah because the conservative republicans are trying to teach their kids judaism and totally don’t hate jews and treat the “old testament” as exclusively christian

Yeah, get that Judeo- part out of there. Jews don’t use anything even resembling the King James Bible at all. This shit is purely Christian shit.

You’re right that they don’t mesh with Judaism.
They also don’t mesh with Christianity.
The religion aspect of it is completely hollow; just a front used to mask being a hate group.

Which courts? The current 6-3 court?
Isn’t Christian. It violates the judeo part. Also the Christian part. Some people get touchy about thier version of the Bible
