This is the sort of stuff that can't happen if the Republicans are going to keep this mandate

Bullets, I’ve had some time to think this over and you are probably right about the backlash in this day and age. I still don’t believe having access to a Bible is forcing anything. Our kids are indoctrinated without their knowledge and some schools have tried to force the CRT agenda and sexually explicit books, so I can’t see the harm in letting them be exposed to the teachings of Christ, which to sum up is about love for one another and accepting Jesus as your Lord and  Savior. Christianity is the backbone on which this country was created and what has contributed to making it the best country the world has ever seen. I know I will get some backlash on here but what else can I expect?

Trump has other issues to deal with first, but America has gotten away from God. The left seems to hate Christians so it is no surprise there will be consequences for Trump’s idea……legally and spiritually. I make no claims to be better than anyone. I am certainly a sinner, but if there is no spiritual guidance in a person’s life, they will have no respect for others and certainly no conscience to help them along. Hopefully we haven’t reached an impasse.

You can't force spiritual guidance. Jesus never forced anyone to follow him.

Can you read? Do you have comprehension problems? Who in the heck said to force spiritual guidance? Answer…..No one! Your diploma precedes you.

The Bible didn't influence it either. Some of the founding fathers were deists

The Founding Fathers were a diverse group, with some being Christians and others being deists. However, they were generally influenced by deist thought and did not intend to create a Christian nation. 

There lies the problem. I disagree. The history of our founders varies according to who’s interpreting the narrative.

The one thing that no one talks much about, the Bible trumps our constitution. As a nation, we cannot expect Gods favor while pushing him out. However, I understand that’s not a considerable concern for those that don’t honor Gods supremacy or his word.

Well that certainly settles this debate topic lol

This is about keeping the base happy and maybe fulfilling promises.

”We will try to get the Holy Bible back in classrooms!!

It won’t happen but…..

They can claim the effort was there and the evil opposition killed it.

My prediction is that the radicals in the house will create another series of battles in the House over picking a speaker anything will get done anyways. 
 

Personally? If the Rs let the nut jobs call the shots, the voters will give congress back to the Ds in two short years, then they’ll get right back to investigating Trump. But I also believe that Rs believe their radical agenda has wheels because of the results from 2024, when in fact it was a repudiation of the D’s radical agenda. 

[CardinalBacker]

If you want your kid to learn Christianity at school, there’s a “family life center” full of weird kids in plaid jumpers and clip-on ties at some local church in your community, guaranteed. 
 

That’s what church schools are for.

As opposed as some of you are, the majority of Americans would not have a problem with it, which says a Bible in the classroom would have no negative effect at the ballot box. It would just make those that oppose more angry.

Nonsense.  In a country where 245M people are eligible to vote, the “landslide” trump victory was by 2.7M.  Something like this is certainly divisive enough to affect elections.  And any effect it had would be almost a complete net loss for republicans.

What’s with liberals that are affected or threatened by the presence of a Bible in the classroom?

Counter question: what do conservatives actually gain by it being there? Apart from “sticking it to the liberals”, I mean.

Where would we be without someone to walk us through this? I mean, we were stupid enough to put the only man who couldn’t possibly beat Biden out there again. How foolish of us all. When people keep getting it wrong and regurgitate the same garbage, they are not to be taken seriously. After all, trolling IS a way of life……talking down from their pedestals. Lmao

Only thing I can come up with is guidance (conscience) for so many lost souls. Too many people’s answers for so many things is, “I don’t give a &$@%.
