          Fair point. I’ve only seen the phrase written as, “No masters, no slaves.”

            The anarchist term is: no gods(atheism=free spiritually) no masters(no slavery=free in reality).

            No gods, no masters" is a political slogan associated with anarchist and leftist labor movements, expressing a desire for freedom from both religious and secular authority. The phrase is a rejection of all forms of oppression and hierarchical structures, including those based on religion and power. Elaboration: Origin: The phrase “no gods, no masters” likely has roots in a 15th-century German proverb and gained prominence in the 1870s through a disciple of Auguste Blanqui. Meaning: It signifies a rejection of all forms of authority and control, including religious, political, and economic domination. Anarchist Context: The slogan is a core principle of anarchism, which advocates for a stateless society based on self-governance and voluntary cooperation. Leftist and Labor Movements: The phrase is also used by leftist and labor movements to express opposition to capitalist structures and to advocate for worker empowerment and social justice. Other Meanings: The phrase can also be used in a more general sense to express a desire for individual autonomy and freedom from external constraints.

    The people who claim that America is a “Christian” nation don’t ever read anything about the values the founders had. Most of them followed a deist philosophy.

      Not to mention, the King was considered to have a “Divine Right” to rule. I can see why the Founding Father’a weren’t too keen on mixing religion and government.

      And Thomas Jefferson went out of his way to emphasis the separation of church and state.

        I’m starting to feel that Donald Trump might not entirely live up to the bar set by Thomas Jefferson.

    Maybe HE should worry about the separation of his head from his body.

    They’ll be all about “forgetting” about that separation, all the way up until someone opens Beezlebubs Intermediate School of the Damned - then they’ll be up in arms again.

      By uniting church and state they can claim that “beezlebubs intermediate School of the Damned” goes against the official religious doctrine so it is banned but “holy Christ of the saints of Peter school for conservative belief” is allowed and gets taxpayer dollars

    I wonder if any of the dumbasses that are still supporting donvict yet understand what this would mean?

    Log Cabin twats like Peter Thiel? These motherfuckers will come for YOU eventually, Einstein. Same for the likes of Tammy Bruce - an openly gay lesbian won’t be in a position of leadership, what kind of gawdly message is that going to send? The Libertarian dumbfuck techbros still underwriting this shit, that are also hard atheist? You too, motherfuckers! Fast talking fools like Ben Shapiro and Stephen Miller? You guys are Jewish! Are you kidding?

    The loudmouth uppity women like Beetlebert and Marjorie Trailer Queen and Kristi “dog murderer” Noem and Karoline Leavitt? You too - the Babble bangers won’t be having YOU ruling over men, what are you even thinking? Best you can hope for is marrying some powerful man that keeps a roof over your head while he bangs some younger handmaidens to raise a crop of kids with his superior genes.

    Yeah, let’s just ignore the First fucking Amendment and basically any freedom that actually matters. Go fuck yourself.

    It’s really funny to me that all the “Christians” in government literally have none of the values Christ did. I’ll bet if I asked them what their favorite Bible verse was they couldn’t answer.

    What the actual fuck.
    There is this global retreat from rationality it seems.
    Why do I need a church?

    Something I’m confused about: if Republicans believe government policy should be based on Christian values, why are they against government programs helping the poor?

      They just believe in the most hateful parts they can cherrypick to fit their ideology. Putting women, gays, blacks and the non-believers in their place.

      They believe in the bible/Christianity insofar that it affirms their preconceived notions.
