You didn’t β€œrestore faith”—you used your office to prop up an awful painting and push your personal religion on every cadet.

Plenty of Mariners serve with honor who aren’t Christian and they know they cannot count on you to support them.

Patriotism isn’t measured by piety.

Afghan women lose their 'last hope' as Taliban shuts down internet For many women, the internet was their last resource. An internet shutdown threatens to end this.

The Taliban’s blackout of women’s education and now the entire internet shows how quickly rights vanish under theocracy.

Don’t think it can’t happen hereβ€”Christian nationalists in the U.S. are pushing the same agenda of censorship & control.

Hi, I served in Afghanistan: this is an obscenity and a perversion against both Christianity and America. Fuck this shit forever. Thanks.

The smell of autumn leaves; the dazzling blend of fall colors of a deciduous forest; understanding the role of the leaves' leutins and anthocyanins all do far more for the human spirit than any sermon or religious text.

God can't hand you a shovel because he doesn't exist. If you want to move a mountain you'll need to buy one and do it yourself.

Our Constitution begins with "We, the People." It’s up to us to make sure those words include everyone.

Sources say State Superintendent Ryan Walters plans to resign from office Multiple sources have told Fox25 that Superintendent Ryan Walters is planning to resign with an annoucement on Friday, Sept. 26.

Christian nationalist Ryan Walters is reportedly resigning.

He pushed religion into schools & even filed a baseless lawsuit against FFRF (tossed out by the court).

Oklahoma schools belong to ALL students β€” not to Christian nationalism.
