Yeah, if there’s public money going to this, they damn well bettter include a primer on the many forms of Buddhism, Hinduism, Islam and all the other thousands of religions that represent our citizens and indigenous peoples.
I’m totally OK with offering an elective for Bible Study, so long as it’s studied alongside the Quran; I mean, surely there’s no reason why they couldn’t study a similar text for a better understanding!
Numerous states introducing Bible Literacy classes, giving students the option of studying the Bible. Starting to make a turn back? Great!
Joshua Tree is out of the way, too. I don’t know you really have to care about fucking up something beautiful to go all the way out there and do it. I’m in California now but I grew up in Utah (a beautiful state) and there were plenty of dinguses up in arms about “government overreach” and the national parks “taking…

At one point, I thought about shelling out the $4,000 fee to get my name on…
You know, from these people, I don’t even give a flying fuck about their policies, because look how uninformed she is. Positive energy flow? Get off my lawn.

can’t lynch someone who is already dead...
“People have always loved to go after Michael. He was an easy target because he was unique.”
Being found not guilty isn't quite the same thing as "COMPLETELY INNOCENT", though.
I can’t say anything that hasn’t already been said about domestic violence and how we continue to fail to take it seriously enough
Are you going to cover the Michael Jackson doc or the Harvey Weinstein doc? I can’t wait to see them. Heard the Jackson one is coming to HBO eventually but I’d run to the theater for either.
