Biden Is Raising an Army of Taxpayer-Funded Atheists

The Biden administration is raising up an army of atheist missionaries.

The government recently announced plans to fund a program that would send Americans abroad to promote atheism and humanism in South/Central Asia, North Africa and the Middle East.

The program would be funded by your tax dollars - as much as a half million dollars per organization.

They are literally going to use a government tithe to spread a godless message of hopelessness to the world.

Congressman Jim Banks, the Republican from Indiana, is demanding answers — writing in a letter to President Biden and Secretary of State Antony Blinken that it’s unconstitutional for the government to convert people to the atheist way of life.

He said it’s one thing to be tolerant and respectful of those who don’t believe in God.

"It is quite another for the United States government to work actively to empower atheists, humanists, non-practicing, and non-affiliated in public decision-making," the letter read. "Any such program – for any religiously-identifiable group – in the United States would be unconstitutional."

The idea that our tax dollars are being used to convert people to a godless, heathen lifestyle is appalling.

It's just one more piece of the puzzle - as radical elements within our nation seek to undermine the religious foundation of our nation. CARTOONS | Margolis & Cox View Cartoon

This is part of a much broader plan to destroy the Christian nature of our nation, as I wrote about in “Culture Jihad: How to Stop the Left From Killing a Nation.”

"A few weeks ago, the United States Embassy in Germany erected a ‘Black Lives Matter’ flag. Americans should be very alarmed at this. It’s not only that ‘Black Lives Matter’ remains a highly divisive and increasingly unpopular movement here in the United States; the display is also denoting a promotion of a specific radical organization. Other recent initiatives of the State Department include creating a ‘Special Representative for Racial Equity and Justice,’ whose mission will be to spread Critical Race Theory and other progressive dogmas worldwide, and working to remove restrictions on abortion around the globe."

If the Left is able to remove God from the public square, shut down our churches and neutralize Christian influence in the culture, it paves the way for the godless communists to take over our nation.

"Americans rightly discern this as a part of the broader effort on the part of your administration to promote radical, progressive orthodoxy abroad" and highlighted that atheism 'is an integral part of the belief system of Marxism and communism,'" Banks wrote.

Our God-blessed nation is once again being fundamentally transformed by godless Democrats.

First, they came for our guns and now they’re coming for our Bibles. Pay attention, Americans. Our country is under attack from within.

What’s the correct pronoun for a taxpayer-funded atheist?

Article is weak on details.

I do not disbelieve it, but I’d like details.

As far as it, of course it’s the case.

They’ve pulled off a coup and are running the 1619 country.

Thus the rainbow flag, BLM flags etc...

Thus pushing their philosophy.

If the Republicans capture the House in the 2022 elections this would seem to be a program that can easily be taken out of future federal budgets. No doubt there are billions in such programs scattered though every agency and department.

What are the odds Speaker McCarthy and a GOP House will take an ax to the federal budget and cut off the taxpayer funding of Democrat and international social justice groups? Sadly the odds are probably less than 1%.

Shouldn’t the First Church of Athesists send out their own missionaries?

Kind of like the Soviets taking over the Russian Empire in the aftermath of WWI.

Atheism is a religion. Federal funding of it is a violation of the Establishment Clause.

Biden: what can we do that’s even worse and more diabolical than anything we have ever done?

Oh, I know, let’s send a bunch of Third Worlders to Hell!

Totally agree. Why not include the name of the program? Why not state who is pushing for it? Saying Biden is behind it is meaningless. He barely knows where he is at and what he is supposed to do without cheat sheets and the Easter Bunny directing him.

Why? This makes no sense. He'd just promote Satanism and Sacrifice while hosting pizza parties. I say false.

Where are the separation of church and state people now? The U.S. has truly become the (not so) Great Satan.

When I heard this on a religious station I thought “How low can the Dems go and get away with it being so blatant?”

They will push the limits with Satan at their backs.

Unconstitutional.

Atheism has been regarded by the courts as a religious view.

Yes. I’d like some details.

What Department, which office, how funded, when and how etc...

Absolutely. Atheism declares there is no God. That is unprovable . It is therefore a belief. Since it involves a Higher Being it is a religious belief. To use US Govt funds to spread this belief is a clear violation of rge First Amendment.
