Top Trump administration officials will address a mass prayer meeting in the heart of Washington Sunday – an event organisers bill as reclaiming the country’s religious foundations, but critics say is a quasi-official rally for Christian nationalism.

    Yeah I just disagree here and would not want it. Part of it is hey its great your making calls from the hip but the fact is its all debateable. Most buddhist temples could easily reshingle as yoga or tai chi studios and just lean heavily on the philosophy. I mean if you meet someone really into either. To the point they teach. Its almost impossible to not take on the philosophy around it and talk about it in classes. Honestly even in most martial arts you have a lot of this. Not to mention im not going to hamstring their ability to do good works. soup kitchens and such. im not going to have them shutdown because they are run by a church and have a prayer before a meal. The whole thing is kinda creepy to me. I invite some friends over and now I might run fowl of some public space law even though its my property. Yeah I mean you could give me all sorts of examples but I just disagree its such and easy clear cut thing to do and even it if it was I don’t think I agree its a good thing to do. If such a thing where being pushed in societ despite being athiest now I would stand with the church group to protect their right to have their houses of worship. Again tax wise I can see getting rid of special privlege, not allowing it in public property sure, but some sort of state erradication is to orwellian for me.
