What people forget is that separation of church and state is meant to protect both from each other. The mixture of Christianity with conservative politics creates an unsolvable contradiction between community and individualism that, I believe, has contributed more to the decline of Christianity in the US than the oft cited bigotry and child abuse.
You think as I do. When you mix church and state, you end up with both corrupted politics and corrupted religion.
When's the last time Trump even actually got near a church? Was it the photo op during his last term where he held up the bible upside down?
Maybe the church service after inauguration when the Bishop had the audacity to make requests of him during her sermon
Which no one in the picture above ever had the gall to do, right? Christians would never take advantage of having someone in the Oval Office as President of the United States to push an agenda.
I think it's pretty much expected that if you go to a place of worship that the leader of that place may tell you "truths" that you may not want to hear, but that they feel their religious doctrine demands be said to make the world a better place (whether one disagrees or not). Hardly audacious or unheard of.
I fully support her message and her method of delivering it. I meant it was audacious from his perspective
My misread then. (What was truly audacious was Trump pretending to care by being there, heyo~)
