So, “gay pride” month. Fine.

A month acknowledging the nation’s objectively Christian heritage. Demonic screeching.

Love it. My wife and I own some property in El Dorado County. We were hoping to retire there, but unfortunately it’s still part of California. Most of the county is very conservative, especially in the Sierra foothills. If they’d join up with the State of Jefferson, we might just repatriate!

The Freedom From Religion Foundation, an advocacy nonprofit for atheists, agnostics, and nontheists that supports the separation of church and state, wrote to the Board of Supervisors on July 28, calling the proclamation “problematic” and “a clear breach of the Establishment Clause of the First Amendment of the United States Constitution.” …
Just in case anyone was wondering as to the identity of the pot-stirrers. Same old usual suspects.

But black , Hispanic and gay pride months are okay (probably missing a few other months too)?

Just have an American Christian Heritage naked bicycle ride, and this will all blow over.

“Just have an American Christian Heritage naked bicycle ride”

I’m not sure that’s what that verse about “standing naked before the Lord” was all about.

I hate all the stupid months. It Balkanizes the USA.

They had a stupid Jewish month now. Or antisemitism month. Stupid blue (yellow?) squares were everywhere.

All it did was cause trouble for my kids.

Does anyone think that there would even be so much as a peep if they had declared Muslim Heritage Month? LOL.

Hebrews 4:13 I think is the one I was thinking of.

I wasn’t suggesting that anyone actually participate, just that it would be an event that leftists wouldn’t object to.
