And a less-biased source: https://www.al.com/news/2019/07/tube...to-senate.html

This is the guy running for Alabama senator against Roy Moore. He has also stated that we need laws that being back more "family oriented" TV shows like Bonanza, Gunsmoke, and the Andy Griffith show and that we need to ban homosexual activity from being shown on television. He believes the top problems in our country today stem from the fact that we've "turned our backs on God" which in Republican speak means we give people freedom to not be fundamentalist Christians.

Do you agree or disagree with Tuberville? Is this what "small government" looks like? Is this what freedom looks like?
Sounds like something an ayatollah would say. Guess this guy is not happy having a Porn Star president, unless he is, of course, a hypocrite.

Anytime I was in TN and GA, the locals would interject a "god bless" in every conversation. It did feel odd. And I think that I was once denied my application to adopt a dog from a southern state, because during my phone interview, I didn't say "god bless". And of course, they might have had many potential adopters for that dog, but they never contacted me afterwards to say that they had picked another applicant.

So confusing? You state "The religious right" are Hypocrits then remain silent when the supposed most most honest diverse president ever, secretly meets the the most Anti-white, anti-jewish, anti-gay, black man in the country. On top of that the leaders of the woman's movement are found to also be meeting with the anti gay Farrakan. Yeah, I know Farrakhan and his Bigoted organization, the Nation of Islam, get a free pass from Democrats because he happens to be black, but who is the biggest hypocrit

We should not allow politicians to spread their views about jesus and god.

But let's put Rashida Tlaib and Ilhan Omar and allow them to spread their Islamic views and put Sharia Law

The word “god” should not be used in Federal or State governments in any way. It shouldn’t be allowed on or in public buildings, currency, or anything else that everyone has to see. Can you imagine the uproar if they printed ‘there is no god’ on money?

This is true. Not if they are elected officials putting their religion before the Constitution.

We are more in danger of a Christian fundamentalist version of Sharia Law--such as the government owning a woman's uterus--than we are from two minority freshman women with very little power in Congress.

More danger of "Christian Fundamentalist"? Well, they are shrinking and Islam is growing in this country. We know what happens in majority Islamic Countries or even when Islam becomes large in numbers. And, on the countrary, the nasty Sharia/Farrakhan empowering Squad in Congress is just the start. Hell, the white, jewish and gay hating Farrakhan already had a friend in Obama in the white house

Sharia Islam is not growing in this country.

By 2050, Muslims will still only make up 2% of the US population.
