    Holy moving goalposts batman!

    OP:

    Apparently that’s not what he’s standing up for. They’re not the right religion. When Republicans make decisions, [that seem] irrational or against their normal behavior. Always assume there’s bigotry tied to it.

    In your first response you wrote:

    Not saying you’re wrong, but the article gives absolutely no evidence that this is the case.

    So I provided a press release quoting the AG’s anti-muslim bigotry as evidence.

    Your response:

    This doesn’t really show his preference for any other religion, though. In fact, he specifically used the word “compelled” when talking about Catholicism.

    So I provided further evidence of his religious preferences.

    Your response:

    So what if he only wants reading proficiency so kids “can read the bible at home with their family.”? Bigotry aside, he’s doing what he’s supposed to be doing.

    I indicated that the point in the post you originally responded to is pretty well supported by the evidence…

    Your response:

    So? He’s not trying to jam that religion into classrooms.

    I’m done, please keep better track of your point in the future

        Lol, ok dude. I never said he was trying to force his religion into anything, you’re just making stuff up. I supported the OPs statement that bigotry against the wrong religions was the motivator here, not high-minded ideals about the separation of church and state, and I think that’s been substantiated by the evidence.
