Garre, representing #Oklahoma AG Gentner Drummond (R), told the justices that #CharterSchools have all the hallmarks of #PublicSchools in that they are free, open to all, funded by #taxpayers & #nonsectarian. The OK #Constitution, he said, prohibits teaching #religion as #truth in public schools.

He warned that a ruling in favor of the #Catholic school would “render unconstitutional the federal charter school program” that he said has been a success story in public #education.

Woah I started a #substack

I wanted to start getting my #thoughts on #political_ideology #theology and #philosophy written down somewhere so I can better grow and develop in an honest and #nonsectarian way

My first piece is an introduction to my general thought process around all these topics by way of deconstructing #hegel and #dialectics

I hope you enjoy

To Drummond — to anyone concerned about the integrity of the public school system — the board’s vote was obviously out of bounds. But it’s actually in line w/an increasingly successful effort by the #ReligiousRight & its enablers on the #SupremeCourt to dismantle what Thomas Jefferson described as the “wall of separation between Church & State.”

Publicly #funding a #Catholic school so clearly flouts both of these provisions that the state AG, Republican Gentner Drummond, accused board members who voted to do so of violating their oath of office & promised to take #legal action once a contract w/the school is signed.

A #CharterSchool “shall be nonsectarian in its programs, admission policies, employment practices, & all other operations,” #OK #law states.

Public schools “shall be open to all the children of the state & free from sectarian control,” the OK #constitution declares.

Oklahoma’s #breach of the #ChurchState line in #PublicSchool is #illegal

The #Oklahoma Statewide Virtual #CharterSchool Board’s recent decision to allow a #Catholic archdiocese to operate a public school is both illegal & #unconstitutional.

I’m not exaggerating — I’m just reading.

Taxpayers shouldn’t be paying for religious schools

States directing taxpayer dollars toward religious schools are potentially funding miseducation and underwriting discrimination.

INFO: how can I get comfortable with asking people for #money for a cause (my #NonSectarian #ChurchForTheChurchless)

My short-term plan is to find a #RegisteredAgent to help me out. I'm also looking for other #MNastodon folk who'd like to be involved.

My long-term plan is to buy a mobile #TinyHouse so I can go on the road & be everyone's friend 😃

I'd like to go to festivals & hang out in the parking lots doing #HarmPrevention like free #DrugTesting & hanging out with #Narcan

I'm looking for some #Custom #BusinessCards for my but the design I want is only available on #FarRight Christian sites 😡

I ain't that kind of #minister. I need something #Nonsectarian from a shop that doesn't fund #HateGroups

Any of ya'll have an #OnlineShop that could help make this happen, or have a recommendation?

Esentially, I want a #Monopoly #Parody of the Chance or Community Chest card that says

"GET OUT OF HELL FREE"

Something like this, but blank on the backside.
