You know ... I'm a Buddhist *and* I've read:

* The Old Testament
* The New Testament
* King James
* A fair amount of the Apocrypha

I do not think Whiskey Pete has ever opened a bible in his life. And when he dies, he's still going to somehow be surprised when he's very much Not in Heaven.

@elfin Both the US Constitution and the Bible discuss the separation of Church and state. Hegseth is ignorant. He's just about as ignorant of government as Trump.

@Alohilani @elfin ironic that the most heavily 'Christian' political landscape in the world is in a country where the church and state are supposed to be separate, whereas, in the UK, we have an established church where the majority of the population, and politicians, don't follow it.
