Jews and Muslims don't eat pork. I loves me some ribs!

Many religions don't celebrate Chistmas. My Christmas starts the day after Thanksgiving and lasts until January 2nd.

Muslims require women to conceal their bodies. I am happy that Mrs. A has it and flaunts it.

The Christofascist MAGA cult believes all abortions are sinful murders AND THE PIOUS PRIGS INSIST NO ONE SHOULD HAVE ONE!

Don't like abortions? DON'T HAVE ONE!

like a good bacon cheeseburger, which during Passover is three-and-a-half sins in one meal (I like mayonnaise on my burger, which isn't officially a sin, but my friends think it should be).

He won't touch ham or bacon.
Will not mix meat and dairy.

But god can he dig into a stack of pork ribs.

and all but two of about 10 or 12 eat bacon and ribs and do not feel any disrespect toward their religion.

We do have 2 family members who keep kosher, but their kids are already starting to rebel, and probably won't. Leniency is permitted.

One religion imposing its views on all others is blatantly unconstitutional, and several religious leaders are challenging Florida law.

I imagine that this garbage gets appealed all the way to ..... OOPS!!




This calls for two things:

1. Passage of national laws that the extreme court can't trash.

2. Expanding the court, taking all legal means to neutralize the Qristian Nationalist conspiracy running wild there.

that his christmas can be whenever he wants it to be. That he isn’t required to follow anyone else’s religious rules about how to celebrate holidays, what to eat, or how to dress.

Here's my favorite rib recipe. I don't make them that much because it's a 6 hour cook for me.

When muslims report to our groups they're now atheist, I always ask, "Have you tried bacon yet? You've got to try bacon!!".

But every time I attempt this simple religious ceremony I AM BEING LITERALLY PERSECUTED FOR MY RELIGIOUS BELIEFS!!!!

The First Amendment guarantees me the right to a free expression of my faith in the great volcano gods. So it's my right to take over the Congress in the name of Vulcanism and force others to live by my values!!
