    Gotta love when an articpe describes something in the title, and then doesn’t actually put the details of that thing in the article. The only mention of the bible in the article is “After quoting from the bible, the Democratic lawmaker said…”

    Anyone know what the actual quote was?

      Matthew 6:5 about praying in secret. Also some references to faith without works is dead and to feed the hungry and clothe the naked in reference to why there is a proposal to put the commandments in classrooms but not to do what Jesus actually calls Christians to do.

      It does include the tiktok video of the rebuttal, which is well worth the watch!
