Hegseth’s religious overreach is increasing and shocking — and demonstrates that he needs to be reined in.

American actress and businesswoman Jessica Alba grew up Catholic, but — like many of us — ditched the dogma later in life.

Maybe working together despite religious differences is something we should be celebrating, not “exposing” with hidden cameras.

Yeah, that’s why they’re called “creation geologists.”

If they understood geology, they’d just be geologists.

Correct. We should lose the biblical foundation for marriage and gender. Those ancient religious rules have no business governing modern society.

But we don’t need Adam and Eve, or any religion at all, to recognize the sanctity and value of human life.

We know you won’t be quiet about it. That’s the problem.

Nobody is arguing that Sharia law should govern America, but you just keep whining about a problem the Constitution already solved.

No religious law gets to govern us. Muslim or Christian.

This is the U.S. military, not a Christian crusade.

Service members swear an oath to the Constitution, not the Bible.

Turning military service into a biblical mission dishonors that oath and every American who takes it.

This is why secular government matters more as America becomes more religiously diverse.

A government that stays neutral on religion doesn’t have to reconcile these competing theologies. It simply protects everyone’s right to believe, disbelieve and disagree.
September 20, 2026 at 4:10 PM
This is a welcome change that could save lives.

But science changes when evidence changes. Religion is different.

You can’t call a rule the eternal law of an unchanging God, demand people risk lives obeying it, then rewrite it decades later and call it a “clarification.”
The Jehovah’s Witnesses just GUTTED their blood transfusion ban!

Members may now accept red cells, white cells, platelets, and plasma—nearly everything modern hospitals typically transfuse.

This will save lives.

It also comes decades too late.

Cabinet secretaries are public servants, not “warriors” for God.

Americans who don’t share the administration’s religion are not “darkness” to be defeated. Our government represents Christians, atheists and everyone in between.

It is not a vehicle for religious crusades.
Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins says the Trump cabinet is a "group of warriors" dedicated to "bringing the light to a very dark world": "To see this extraordinary amount of winning that we've been able to do, none of it is possible without God." www.peoplefor.org/rightwingwat...

A man recovering his ability to walk is wonderful news.

Turning that recovery into “proof” of God is another matter entirely.

Telling amputees they might be healed if they’d just have enough faith to “step out of the wheelchair”?

That isn’t hope. It’s cruel.
In a 16-second video that went viral, an Alabama church showed a paraplegic man jumping up and down. They credit God with his recovery.

Doctors told me the "miracle" has a medically plausible explanation. No divine intervention needed.

Spanish actor Javier Bardem, best known for his roles in "No Country for Old Men," "Skyfall" and the "Dune" trilogy, is also known to speak out against organized religion.

For the record: We believe in Al Pacino, too.

Tierra Walker was 37.

Her family says she was denied an abortion as pregnancy complications threatened her life. She died at 20 weeks pregnant.

Religious doctrine should never dictate medical care or become the law of the land.

The Treaty of Tripoli, which was negotiated and signed while George Washington was president:

"Art. 11. The Government of the United States of America is not in any sense founded on the Christian religion."

Q: How many times is Jesus mentioned in the Constitution?

A: Zero.
September 16, 2026 at 5:06 PM
Exactly. “We the People.”

Not “We the Christians.” Not “We the Believers.” And not “We the People, under God.”

Our Constitution derives its authority from the people, not a deity. That’s a founding principle worth celebrating.

The time has come for politicians to stop imposing their religious beliefs on everyone else.

Medical decisions belong to patients and their doctors, not politicians enforcing religious doctrine.

There is no god.

But we’d much rather live in a country where Albert Mohler has every right to believe there is than one where the government gets to decide what the rest of us must believe.

That’s religious freedom. We believe in it. Too many Christian nationalists don’t.
Southern Baptist leader Albert Mohler envisioned a country where blasphemy would be a crime.

After backlash, he said, “I think I blew it.” But he still wants a nation governed by his brand of Christianity.

He can't have it both ways.

This #ConstitutionDay, remember that our Constitution is completely god-free, and only mentions religion to exclude it from government interference.

The irony is hard to miss: The same movement constantly warning that immigration threatens “Christian America” might want to look at who is actually keeping Christianity’s numbers from falling even faster.
A reminder that immigration, mostly by Hispanic Catholics, has offset some of the decline of Christianity in the U.S., which is driven mostly by White Americans losing their faith-- not the arrival of non-Christian immigrants.

No. Religious extremists attacked America on 9/11.

Maybe the lesson isn’t to speculate about which “infidels” God wanted dead.

Maybe it’s to be wary of people who claim to know whom God wants punished.

100% correct. So is biblical law.

That’s the whole point of our secular government:
Christians, Muslims, atheists and everyone else live under the Constitution, not somebody else’s religion.
September 16, 2026 at 2:50 PM
There’s a reason the Declaration never says “Jesus Christ.” Inserting your preferred deity isn’t historical evidence.

If the Founders wanted Christian nationalism, they had a strange way of showing it: a Constitution with no Jesus, no Christianity, and no religious tests.
