Though I'm a practicing #Christian I welcome any religious or non religious person who loves humanity and wants to do good for all of it. While my dad was very sick last week that he passed we welcomed people from protestant, Catholic, Muslim, Jewish and Hindu traditions to pray with us and they did.
Not out of desperation but out of solidarity in love.
We welcomed thoughts of atheists as well and were grateful for their solidarity in love for my dad. #religion
There is no such thing as the Judeo-Christian tradition. It is a figment of the supersessionist imagination. It is a term meant to co-opt Jews and Jewish history into a #Christian narrative to give legitimacy to that narrative. It is a term that erases #Jews and #Judaism. Everyone should stop using that term.
It's worth remembering that Christians, the most GOP-leaning religion, are split almost exactly evenly down the middle between Democrats and Republicans. Every other religious group votes overwhelmingly for Democrats.
Democrats are the party of religious freedom and expression. Republicans are the party of lonely single men and abusive men who are on their 3rd or 4th wife and don't pay child support.
Legislating women's rights is an expression of GOP authoritarianism and misogyny.
AKA the #PineTreeFlag, it dates back to the Revolutionary War, but largely fell into obscurity until recent yrs & is now a symbol of support for #Trump, for a #religious strand of the “Stop the Steal” campaign & for a push to remake American govt in #Christian terms.
3 photos obtained by NYT, along w/accounts from…neighbors & passers-by, show that the #AppealToHeaven flag was aloft at the #Alito home…in July & Sept of 2023. A Google street view image from late Aug also shows the flag.
Magnificat, for unaccompanied choir, was written for the New York Virtuoso Singers in 2000. It is dedicated to the loving memory of my great-aunt Dorothy McMullin, Sister of Mercy (1904-1999), whose love and joy, kindness and good humor inspired all who knew her.
