What is it about our Constitution that these maniacs do not understand? This is not Constitutional -- it's illegal under our laws, and yet this Christian Nationalist fanatic feels comfortable advocating for something completely illegal and unAmerican
(BTW, to all those who get hysterical over Mayor Mamdani and Senator Bernie Sanders supporting some form of socialism, neither are advocating breaking the law nor changing the Constitution. It is not illegal to support socialism. It IS against our Constitution for the government to favor one religion over all others.):
And Pete Hegseth invited him to preach at the Pentagon.
Doug Wilson leads Christ Church in Moscow, Idaho. In a sit-down interview, he said he wants the 19th Amendment gone and replaced with 'household voting,' where women only cast a ballot if they are the head of their household. He was blunt about who does the voting in his own home. The man.
He didn't stop at women. Wilson said non-Christians would not be allowed to hold public office in the America he wants. Asked whether they could at least vote, he said, "Yes, probably," then described restrictions on public spaces for non-Christian worship. Church bells, yes. Minarets, no.
Wilson has defended slavery in the American South as a relationship "based upon mutual affection." He believes homosexuality should be a crime. He calls himself a Christian nationalist and says his goal is to turn the United States into a Christian theocracy over the course of several generations, roughly 250 years, one school and one church plant at a time.
And this is the man Hegseth chose to put in front of the U.S. military. In February, the Secretary of Defense invited Wilson to deliver a sermon at the Pentagon, carried on internal Pentagon television, as part of a monthly Christian worship service Hegseth started at the building in 2025. About 300 people attended.
Wilson says he and Hegseth have "met a few times" and "texted some." He opened a Washington church because of how many people in the Trump administration follow his teachings. A Pentagon spokesperson has confirmed Hegseth is a member of Wilson's church network and "very much appreciates" his writings.
Wilson told NPR his vision is "closer to getting a hearing" than at any point in the 40 years he has preached it. He credits the reach he now has to the men who invited him inside the walls of American power. One of them runs the largest military on earth."

You don't like diversity? Muslims want shari'a law (essentially like Hegseth, but with Islam instead of Xtianity). Should they not be allowed to occupy cabinet positions in government?
Oh that's right... only white xtians can be racist... and must therefore be opposed.
Idaho certainly has its share of creeps. Not proud.
It is what it is. The sick pathetic X'tian visions (as sick and pathetic as any extremist Muslim vision) of morons and the authoritarian asshat "leaders" that embrace them.
Wrong. That’s a lie. And you’re spreading disinformation to encourage easily duped people to hate their Muslim neighbors. Go sell your fear mongering at the Mother Ship. They hate and distrust all Muslims. Your kind of calumny is quite welcomed on that blog
”Private Practice vs. Law: Muslims are free to follow the personal and spiritual tenets of Sharia in their daily lives, such as dietary practices or prayer. This is protected by the First Amendment. However, these religious rules carry no legal weight in civil or criminal courts.
“Muslim Americans do not want Sharia law imposed on Americans. The vast majority support the United States Constitution and the separation of church and state.
Studies and community discussions, including those on Reddit, demonstrate that American Muslims view Sharia as a set of personal, voluntary religious and moral guidelines for their own lives rather than a legal or political system to be enforced on others.
Organizations like the American Civil Liberties Union and the Institute for Social Policy and Understanding have consistently noted that the idea of a movement to implement Islamic law in the U.S. is largely based on unfounded fears and misinformation.”
Ms. Shaw, Where did you come up with the separation of church and state. Why are churches exempt from paying taxes and any contribution to them is tax deductible, they get a double pass. Why do we have religious holidays if there is separation. No even thought the great one said we are not a christian nation we bow to religions.
FROM AI: “Religious organizations are exempt from federal income and property taxes primarily because they qualify as 501(c)(3) charitable organizations. This exemption traces its roots to historical practices and is designed to recognize the public benefit they provide while respecting the constitutional separation of church and state.
The exemption rests on three core rationales:Social Services & Public Benefit: Similar to secular charities, religious groups are viewed as organizations that provide moral guidance, community support, and charitable services, which relieves the government of some social welfare burdens.
Separation of Church and State: Under First Amendment principles, taxing churches gives the government financial leverage over religious practices. The concept that "the power to tax is the power to destroy" means that tax exemption helps ensure the state cannot control or financially suppress religious groups.
Administrative Entanglement: Requiring religious institutions to constantly open their books for tax assessments could lead to excessive government intrusion into church doctrine and internal operations.
However, this tax-exempt status comes with strict rules. Under federal law, these organizations cannot use their tax-exempt resources to intervene in political campaigns or heavily endorse specific political candidates. Furthermore, income derived from businesses that are completely unrelated to their core religious mission is subject to tax
Only one quasi-religious holiday, Christmas, is recognized by the government. Christmas is celebrated as a winter celebration by people who are not religious along with those who are.
BTW, Skud, I didn’t “ come up with the separation of church and state,” the Constitution does, as did Jefferson and John Adam’s who wrote that the United States is in no way a Christian country.
Our laws are based on the Constitution of the United States, not the Declaration of Independence, nor the 10 Commandments. Our laws come from the Constitution where God is not mentioned.
That is why all religions are able to be practiced in this country without interference from the government.
The government should stay out of religion; religion should stay out of government.
