- In 2022, Florida began indoctrinating public school teachers with Christian Nationalism in the hopes that they would spread the misinformation to their students.
In 2023, new evidence shows, they kept doing it.

Thank you to Yanely Del Rosario for providing captioning help!
It amazes my how Republicans that scream that the Government spends too much money are willing to give these religious organizations a blank check.
No expense spared for Jesus
These organizations are where their support comes from

They don't care about expenditure when it's on causes they support.
They pour money into the military-industrial complex, police departments, prisons, religious institutions, anything that enforces hierarchy. They especially hate things like welfare and public education because they give the "wrong people" (minorities and the poor) the potential to move up the hierarchy.
The Founding Fathers deemed *ALL* religions unfit for modern, civil governance.
The *1st Amendment's Establishment Clause* prohibits the government from making any law, _“respecting an establishment of religion.”_
This clause not only forbids the government from establishing an official religion, but also prohibits government actions that unduly favor one religion over another. It also prohibits the government from unduly preferring religion over non-religion.
*Constitution Article VI Supreme Law - Clause 3 Oaths of Office*
_"The Senators and Representatives before mentioned, and the Members of the several State Legislatures, and all executive and judicial Officers, both of the United States and of the several States, shall be bound by Oath or Affirmation, to support this Constitution; _*_but no religious Test shall ever be required as a Qualification to any Office or public Trust under the United States."_*
This means nobody is ever required to swear to a god or on the Bible, or any other religious book for an oath of office. They may choose a god or religious book, but none is required.
Thomas Jefferson and Calvin Coolidge did not use a Bible in their oath-taking ceremonies. Theodore Roosevelt did not use the Bible when taking the oath in 1901, nor did John Quincy Adams, who swore on a book of law, with the intention that he was swearing on the constitution.
_"In this enlightened age and in this land of equal liberty, _*_it is our boast,_*_ that a man's religious tenets will not forfeit the protection of the laws, nor deprive him of the right of attaining and holding the highest offices that are known in the United States."_
*-George Washington* (To the Members of the New Jerusalem Church of Baltimore, 27 January 1793)
_“The United States is not a Christian nation any more than it is a Jewish or Mohammedan Nation.”_
*- John Adams* (American statesman, attorney, diplomat, writer, Founding Father & 2nd president)
_“...the government of the United States of America is not in any sense founded on the Christian Religion."_
*-Treaty of Tripoli - June 7, 1797. Signed by President John Adams & Ratified UNANIMOUSLY, by the Senate June 10, 1797*
....only a few times in history the Senate unanimously agreed on anything.
A 2018 Supreme Court Ruling re-affirmed this statement, from The Treaty of Tripoli.
The Supreme Court released an opinion on May 14, 2018 in Murphy v. National Collegiate Athletic Assn., 584 U. S. (2018), Justice Thomas in his concurring opinion wrote:
_"The Treaty of Tripoli was passed by the Senate and signed into law by President John Adams. As such, it is a "legislated text" which must be read "textually". The lower courts in this case read a hypothetical legislative intention into the text by dismissing Article 11 as "a mere formality". The language itself makes a clear direct statement that _*_our government is not based on the Christian religion and any attempt by a government official to represent our government as Christian contradicts the text and the historical understanding of our founders."_*
_"Who does not see that the same authority which can establish Christianity, in exclusion of all other Religions, may establish with the same ease any particular sect of Christians, in exclusion of all other Sects?"_
*- James Madison 4th president* (A Memorial And Remonstrance, On The Religious Rights Of Man: Written In 1784-85)
For people whos eyes are supposedly set on the heavens they sure are addicted to earthly power.
Well said..
the Christofascists would argue that it is their mission to convert all the nonbelievers by whatever means necessary. They think they'll be rewarded in the afterlife for doing God's work...SMFH!
There are times I wish "God's will" and their trust in their god extended to voting.
That's because using religion is a handy tool for gaining power. They use their religious beliefs as a way of stroking their egos and gaining as much cash and political influence as possible.
Morality existed long before religion came along. When human beings decided to live in groups.
We are a collective species. We have always lived in groups.
That started long before our ancestors were human.
Correct,what theists fail to realize is without morality we cannot live in groups and without groups you can't get religion.
It's not a coincidence that most religions include fundamental, broadly accepted moral foundations. They are stealing rules generated through evolution. Humans are the most social animal on the planet and we can successfully be that way because we are generally "moral." Those morals are what allows us to live in huge communities. Pre-modern humans who lacked those "morals" weren't evil, any more than than a male lion taking over a pride and eliminating the offspring of his predecessor. That lion is "moral" by lion standards. But pre-modern humans who were highly aggressive, not community minded, and lacked what we consider moral, just didn't make it.
Nationalism is a waste of time, since all Christians know and believe that Israel is destined to rule the world. Yet have I set my king upon my holy hill of Zion.
Know the difference between EDUCATION and INDOCTRINATION.
With EDUCATION, people are taught HOW to think.
With INDOCTRINATION, people are told WHAT to think.
According to right wingers, it's only indoctrination of liberals do it. And then, they refer to it as "grooming children "
People like you constantly go after true Christians for your own ideological reasons. I don't agree with Christian nationalism, and I don't agree with violence either. We are to live our faith in peace and love including our enemies as the scripture says. That said we have the right to the first amendment, to practice our faith in peace. Including being against abortion, homosexuality, and being able to homeschool our own children with a Christian education. No true Christian should hate anybody we are called by scripture to love even our enemies. But liberal people like you I doubt can tell the difference what first amendment protections really mean or you don't really care to know
As a former classroom teacher, I can say that I (and most of my compatriots) went to these "continuing Ed" sessions STRICTLY for the money. You get the packets, you sit through the presentations, you nod your head, and then chuck it all in the trash once your "certificate" and paycheck show up.
Occasionally there were research-based teaching strategies that we were encouraged to implement. Some were good, many were bunk (based on cherry-picked classrooms/schools).
YMMV
Good on you. Get that money, get out, and never teach a dang thing they show you.
I figured anyone who didn’t believe any of that stuff going in wouldn’t come out believing and wanting to teach it. That’s the thing these people never seem to get. You can’t FORCE people to believe something they don’t. You can only force them to SAY they do. Things like this give the game away - it’s not belief they’re after. It’s compliance.
Religion was invented when the first con man met the first fool -- Mark Twain
Lol. And so true.
Twain was echoing Voltaire: "Religion began when the first scoundrel met the first fool."
@@toughenupfluffy7294 Same difference.
this sounds like several lawsuits and certification removals that NEED to happen
We have to ask ourselves, "is this really what Jesus intended when He wrote the Constitution?"

Some scary shit going down in Florida.
I'm glad DeSantis' presidential ambitions have been thwarted for now, but he can still do a fair bit of damage as long as he is Governor of Florida.
I might need help clarifying some of the Right's positions. How is tearing down statues erasing history, but omitting history from history books and indoctrinating teachers isn't.
Such a disgrace. What in the world is going on in the South in the US?
It's always been this way
They are programmed to own the libs at any cost. Trigger the other side, even if it costs you your children.

Acting like the founding fathers were against church-state separation is such a cope.
Everything they actually made into law proves otherwise, and many of the most important founding fathers were actually deist.
Part of the problem is a cult named WallBuilders, led by David Barton. There are things he stands to gain by making people think the Founding Fathers were Falwellians and/or Televangelists, many of which I haven't figured out.

In Alberta, Canada, our premier idolizes Rhonda Santis; our education funds are likewise being funnelled into charter religious schools. I am sure she will copy this bs as well. Fascism is spreading world wide.
Maybe they’re right after all? Maybe Jesus IS Lord?? 🤔

They're quoting George Washington as being an abolitionist???!!! I wonder if any of the slaves that he kept for over 50 years knew of that position, because I certainly didn't.
Washington always intended that slavery would go by the wayside. But actually facilitating such a move was far more complicated than talking about it at the coffee house...A man who has actual responsibilities...a man whose actions have actual repercussions for other human beings....cannot act in quite the same way as a spoiled, insulated child...
@@tgriffin3059
There is nothing complicated about freeing a person and saying "you are not property."
Washington did not do that for over 50 years.
End of discussion.
@@Matacron Well, of course, the matter is simplicity, itself...nothing complicated, whatsoever...he could have turned them all loose...why didn't I think of that?....and they'd have all immediately gotten good paying jobs, because freed black folks were in such high demand, right? One of them might have been governor of Virginia...the sky was literally the limit...
Had he freed them, where would they have sought employment? And what would have prevented some other planter from simply commandeering them and putting them to work on their own plantations? Washington had to consider such matters....you don't...having a grown man's responsibilities makes a difference....
To be fair Washington wanted his slaves freed after he died.
@@dennisduncan7561 Yeah, in fact I think they were freed altogether after the death of his wife...but if you concede things like that, then you have to admit that those men weren't monsters...and the liberals will have no part of that...
Ironic that they mention Locke's contract theory when Lock argued for religious tolerance due to the fact that:
1) earthly judges, the state in particular, and human beings generally, cannot dependably evaluate the truth-claims of competing religious standpoints;
2) even if they could, enforcing a single 'true religion' would not have the desired effect, because belief cannot be compelled by violence;
3) coercing religious uniformity would lead to more social disorder than allowing diversity.
Basically, "there's no way to know which religion is true, so none should be given special status" which is an idea that wouldn't go down well with Florida Republicans.
People need to get the fuck out of the past. This is 2024, not fucking 1776 damn it!
I wonder how many teachers took the class for the money. They knew it was BS but needed the money.
I used to work for a school district in Canada. It would have been considered a conflict of interest to take money to go to a workshop. We were pleased if our district helped us pay the fees or the travel! It almost always cost us extra out of pocket. And I ALWAYS got my money’s worth from workshops. I wasn’t going to waste my time!

You are such a star. How can anyone compete with the perfection that is you.
@@dwp6471 What? I wasn’t bragging, I was pointing out a huge difference in the systems. Going to a pro-D that paid us to be there would be considered a conflict of interest here.
I just went to read some John Locke. Wow. People of that time, who really hated periods, having recognized the solemn rights of punctuation within sentence construction, not infringing on the parts of speech with respect to the origins of their entomological significance, reserved the right to make the longest, convoluted sentences which could be later defended through their later interpretation.
😂

"What choices teachers have..."
To quit because we're not really teaching truth to the kids anymore. And we're tired of holding the line without the public support.
So a lot of us are just walking away.
As conservative as it was, the university (King College, Bristol TN) I attended for my BA in the 90s didn't teach intelligent design in anything except engineering and the actual religion and philosophy classes. Science classes were taught by biologists, chemists, physics, etc that were scientists that were Christians not christian scientists. Lol my philosophy professor was hindu and her husband taught mathematical theory and equasions also hindu and was the coolest guy and the loved by everyone because he didnt combine religion and education. I had no trouble with religious people for most of my life, but now that the proselytizing is nigh inescapable its just gotten to be too damn much.
Besides that, their book says not to lie so why do they want me to violate their gods law by saying i believe when i dont? Isn't that also a blasphemy type thing? Because by imitating them am i not also mocking?

People need to keep a close eye on this, as it's purpose may be two fold. It could be just as much about the push for private schools as "nailing lifts" (George Carlin line).🤔
There are fewer and fewer realists out there because our present-day conditions are becoming unbearable.
To many people… Stop having kids!👺
The teachers were signing up for this conference already believe things alternative facts.
It will be worrying to see if questions on civics tests start to reflect their propaganda.
It must be what the people in Florida want. I just saw a video saying people are leaving Florida because of the politics, and people are moving to Florida because of the politics, so stay tuned!
The religious right nothing new or surprising.
Bullsh!t like that should be made illegal 🙄‼️
So why the hell isn't the *WALL OF SEPARATION* between State and church more *STRENUOUSLY* enforced?
Because most of our "representatives" are corporate goons as well as pandering to the Religious political right.

With the 🍊 💩 in Florida and de-sanctified as the governor is it any wonder that the "seminar" sounds very ⏰️ 🍊 👁
Hopefully the teachers are learning what NOT to teach and how to make sure that the truth is taught.
Also, so many "revolutionary" concepts and aspects of the Constitution were heavily borrowed from the Haudenosaunee's Great Law of Peace.
Not identically copy-pasted (and obviously blended with some Greek ideas) but things that were breaking ground for European/descendent governments were commonplace ideas in Iroquois society--such separation of powers, two-part legislature with a process for developing new laws, representative government, parameters on when/how/by whom war could be declared, process to remove people from positions of power, among others.
And last time I checked, Iroquois society, law, and worldview was not at all based in Christianity.
Look up the short story the lottery. Were going to go back to that.

To simply sum it up they know that atheism is on the rise with this generation and their idea is the leveling of the playing field but unfortunately it's not working out. It's not even leveling they are openly cheating the playing field. It's sad to know that humanity won't be rid of religious beliefs in my lifetime but it's far better than it was when I was a kid. I remember getting shit from other kids for not going to church and believing the same nonsense that most people did. The money wasted is a shame and I would rather it go to homeless people but Florida is a different world all together.
Winner of the Internet!😅
Christian extremists scare me... And I'm a born and raised Presbyterian. To that... I don't know if my sect being a branch of some extremists back in the day is actually a good or bad thing, but my church... my pastor... my fellowship stated, "Asking questions is a good thing."
So, I'm not atheist... but sure as hell learned a lot more about the Bible and church through open-minded channels like this.
Thankyou Hemant! 👍🏿💙💙💙🥰✌🏻

They have school teachers in Florida
Religion should not be taught in civics classes or science classes, but in philosophy classes. Which most high schools don't teach.
They never want reality to interfere with their carefully constructed fantasy.
I liked my civics teacher, taught what was necessary to pass the exam. With fun court cases and several discussions on current events. Overall a good class, the only time religion was mentioned was going over the bill of rights, and in some current events discussion.
Not the first time I've heard this take on rights from influential intellectuals as well as religious authorities and US politicians, unfortunately. My personal belief is that natural or inherent universal rights are "exactly what the name says," as in they're rights possessed simply by virtue of one's existence whether or not those rights are recognized or infringed (if the right doesn't exist inherently, there's nothing for any state or other individual to recognize nor infringe), but I'm a liberal and those are liberal ideas. It's still both a simple and logically consistent position though, with no supernatural power nor appeal to a manmade document needed.
The "Creator" the Founders were referring to was nature.
For the algorithm 😮
💙🙏💙
I wish I was surprised, but I’m not.
Isn't it Locke's "Social Contract Theory," rather than "compact?"
There is nothing "christian" about that false teaching.
This is all for money and power. People behind the scenes of this don't really believe in this.

Dear Hemant, I wish you would do an essay on the Desposnyi. I read about them in books 📚 as a child. You can google stuff about them today. Don’t stop until you reach Pope Sylvester. Go a little further and you should hit Constantine’s breeding program. Jesus’s descendants were hunted, raped, and killed.
Also would like to see an essay on the Panarion. Atheists should know these works. They did in my
youth.

This type of fascist movement is unacceptable.
Homeschool your kids in red states….
We have liberal deist enlightenment classicist secularists to thank for basically all the peace, compassion and freedom we enjoy in the western world today, not Christianity. Christian europe was in a constant state of poverty, strife and war, there was no freedom of thought, apostates and blesphemers would be publicly burned alive, and all the governments were tyrannical feudal monarchies, you couldn't even leave the land without permission from the lord. Look at the european wars of religion that killed millions. The catholics use to destroy entire cities of enemies like in the old testament. Constant wars and schisms and poverty and suffering. The pagan roman empire around 100 - 300 AD was objectively more stable and moral then anything Christianity produced. Christianity was nothing but trouble for the west ever since it adopted it.

Students should be required to worship the Creator god, Viracocha, fer sure. Why do many people think that the deistic Founders were thinking of Jesus when they spoke of the Creator?
Just one more reason why religion should be outlawed....
That's been tried in Soviet Russia, where it just went underground and came out even stronger. No, what needs to happen is to have religion erased by education.

Whenever people use the "Founding Fathers" as impeachable and perfect founts of wisdom remember two things: 1. The Constitution was the 2nd attempt at forming a federal governement (the first the Articles of Confederation was a complete and total failure) and 2. George Washington died of blood loss because he and others thought an imbalance of humors caused illness and they had no idea of germs. Theses people weren't perfect and we should rely on reason and logic over what blokes 250 years ago said
