Relax. It wasn't a Muslim prayer. Our secular state is safer. lol. I can't believe these bigoted morons are running the country.


A Republican congresswoman is facing widespread backlash after saying that a Sikh should not have conducted a prayer in the US House.

Mary Miller, an Illinois representative, on Friday published – then deleted – a post on X saying that Giani Singh, a Sikh Granthi from southern New Jersey, should not have delivered the House’s morning prayer.

Miller at first mistakenly identified Singh as a Muslim and said that it was “deeply troubling” someone of that faith had been allowed to lead prayer in the House and it “should never have been allowed”, Miller posted on X.

“America was founded as a Christian nation, and I believe our government should reflect that truth, not drift further from it,” Miller continued. “May God have mercy.”

They show how backward they are daily.

 

[Peacenik]

Where in the Constitution does it say that America is a Christian nation?

Can't find it?

It's not there.

The Constitution doesn't say that.

It says Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion.

It is the very first sentence in the Bill of Rights.

It also says Congress shall make no law prohibiting the free exercise of religion.

This woman is an idiot.

I get the feeling americans really do not understand what the word secular means.

In a secular state, the population, regardless of religious belief or lack thereof, should be treated equally and fairly under the law.
For a really bad and obviously not adhered to example, in the United States, the Equality Act enforces laws to prevent discrimination based on one's religion or philosophical beliefs.

"Jared Huffman, another Democratic US House member from California, wrote on X: “I often say that I serve in Congress with some of the greatest minds of the 18th century. With [representative] Miller I may need to take it back a few more centuries.”"

Like!

Why are any religion's prayers being said in the House?

"Miller at first mistakenly identified Singh as a Muslim..."

They all look the same, right, Right?

Sikhs's, Muslim's...

MAGATS IN CONGRESS MAKE ME proud to be an American, indeed!

Poor Mary Miller. She's going to hell for being a vicious, angry, sinner. Jesus has little patience for human filth like her.

He who speaks truth declares righteousness, But a false witness, deceit.

Exodus 20:16
“You shall not bear false witnessagainst your neighbor.

Justice for All​

“You shall not circulate a false report. Do not put your hand with the wicked to be an unrighteous witness.

She has some slpaining to do!

The US is a deeply, utterly racist country. The hysteria is hardly a surpise.

 

[Tigerace117]

Because about 1918 or so a bunch of American legislators decided the only way to protect the brutally abusive industrialists in the US from another revolution was to wrap the flag around the cross and vice versa, and that’s been the American way ever since.

 

[Lycanthrope]

Hardly surprising - Trumpism valorizes ignorance, if not outright stupidity.

May Allah have mercy on this woman.

Overstated. We are in recovery from our racism addiction, tho setbacks have occurred under Trump.

The Biden admin never hesitated for a second to help Israel mass murder Palestinian civilians.

The US merely was in one of its phases were it pretended all racism was gone so it could demonize anyone who pointed out that wasn’t the case.

That cannot be reiterated enough.

The US decided otherwise in the name of fighting Russia over a century ago.

All other religions were merely tolerated at that point, and subject to frequent brutal abuses.

It seems the Congresswoman is not familiar with the Constitution. Ironic considering she's a politician.

Wrong, as usual.

 

[Tigerace117]

Wrong, as usual.

The US still refuses to accept fighting to defend slavery was wrong, as all those statues and military bases honoring Confederates show.

America is a fanatically racist country, and no amount of denial can change that.

Actually, we have been swearing on the bible (truth) to tell the truth so help us God in Federal Courts prior to 1918.
