The Jeff Sessions "Religious Liberty Task Force"

[Silver]

My perspective and understanding is that there are already laws in place to protect religious freedoms. What Sessions wants is to strengthen a possible theocracy, and that is something we must fight against.

Ok, so it’s back to fear again or worry about what might occur.

But this doesn’t seem to be just about Christians. Nor is this making a new law, but about enforcing a long standing constitutional principle.

I don’t see the issue.

The issue isn't that I'm afraid of what might occur. I think most of us have a sense of who Jeff Sessions is and what he is about.

I smell bullshit. That's all I'm saying.

Thanks for the article. Nice to hear that the DOJ still does it's job. The rest of the article was spin, plain and simple. But that's about 95% of the internet these days so I can't fault you for that.

The main things focus which I posted the article, is that there is a board with people from a number of different people from different religions. From what I’ve seen so far, that’s what this seems to be; is a committee on religious freedom to advise different departments.

It neither is that..nor does it seem to be that.  You require that it be that in order to continue this shitposting, lol.

The National Review is the US version of either Der Sturmer or Der Schwarze Korps (yes, yes, I know I'm missing the umlauts. I'm lazy). It saying that the religious southern baptists freedom oppressive task force is a "breath of fresh air" has all the veracity of Julius Streicher proclaiming Hitler the great guarantor of jewish freedoms.

As was said "When fascism comes to America it will be wrapped in the flag and carrying a cross." This "task force" is wearing the brown shirts of the Sturm Abteilung.

Indeed they should call it the Christian Dominionist Task Force and one wonders when Road will quit trying to spin this as innocent or stop creating straw men that no one ever made ?

[Mister Agenda]

If it only defends Christians and never defends anyone FROM Christians, that's a problem, and you really ought to agree with that.

Ok sure from a constitutional standpoint; it should be about religious liberty of all. Other than a feeling; is there anything real being pointed to, to suggest it is otherwise?

Christian Dominionists in charge of a 'Religious Liberty Task Force'.
