Defunding as a strategy to reach the courts.

School districts can design their own lesson plans and are not forced to adopt the curriculum, but will receive a funding incentive of $40 per student to buy learning materials if they do.

Texas schools can now teach Bible-based reading lessons

Holy Mother on a half shell, at the end they describe some serious good old fashioned, red blooded American bootlicking.

"More recently, the lead education official in Oklahoma, Superintendent Ryan Walters, announced the state had purchased 500 copies of the Bible published by President-elect Donald Trump for some high school classes focused on the US government. He said the books included other "foundational documents" for the country, namely the Declaration of Independence.

Superintendent Walters has also required schools to show students a video of him praying for Trump, although some school districts refused, according to media reports."

I will help crowdfund any atheist group that wants to put their material in Texas schools.

The Satanic Temple has done a bang up job lately of actually funding, licensing and running medical abortion clinics in New Mexico and Virginia. Offering no cost, on demand services with human staff available online 24/7.

Plus they filed reproductive rights lawsuits in 2 other states. They really stepped up their game when we needed them. With due respect, I have made a contribution to their Health organization.


In spite of the other well founded and quite sound legal basis pursued in challenging restrictive imposed on women by the right wingnut xtian zealots, I do chuckle at the argument claiming abortion is their religious sacrament. As any self respecting  “non-theistic religious organization” would do.




Proudly offering -  Free abortion healthcare services in Virginia
With the opening of our Virginia clinic, TST Health is expanding access to a new region, offering safe and affordable virtual abortion care to those who need it most. We’re also actively working to increase access in other states, including taking legal action in restrictive states such as Indiana and Idaho to provide religious abortion services there as well. This is a challenging effort, but we are committed to fighting for the reproductive rights of our members and supporters.

The lawsuit contends that a pregnant woman is entitled to terminate her pregnancy in accordance with the temple’s Tenet III — “One’s body is inviolable, subject to one’s own will alone” — and its “Satanic Abortion Ritual,” which includes “a personal affirmation that is ceremoniously intertwined with the abortion,” it explains on its website.

The Temple cites the Religious Freedom Restoration Act to argue that the ritual exempts its members “from enduring medically unnecessary and unscientific regulations when seeking to terminate their pregnancy.”

“We shudder to think what the ‘Religious Abortion Ritual’ that they require is all about,” the statement, which was signed by Archbishop John Wester of Santa Fe, Bishop Peter Baldacchino of Las Cruces and Bishop James Wall of Gallup, among others.

Speaking to The Independent on the morning of its launch, Chalice Blythe, minister of Satan at the Temple, said the clinic is part of a long tradition of using existing statutes to ensure the equal application of religious laws.

”It’s how we’ve done things historically, whether it’s bodily autonomy or abortion access. We are simply utilising religious protection for us to have free exercise of our religion,” she told The Independent. ”There are laws and restrictions that are constantly passed that deny us the ability to free exercise,” she added. “Any legal action we take is to protect our ability to practice our faith.”

Despite the humour in the name, she said that the Temple’s work is deeply serious.

“There's always a concern that our humour is mistaken for a lack of seriousness. However, when it comes to things like the clinic, I know that our work is going to speak for itself. I know the number of people we're going to be able to help with this, especially when we move into other states. Eventually, the work will speak for itself,” she said

Meanwhile, I'm going to offer schools to teach the kids my favorite bible verses.

“When she carried on her whoring so openly and flaunted her nakedness, I turned in disgust from her, as I had turned in disgust from her sister. Yet she increased her whoring, remembering the days of her youth, when she played the whore in the land of Egypt and lusted after her lovers there, whose members were like those of donkeys, and whose issue was like that of horses. Thus you longed for the lewdness of your youth, when the Egyptians handled your bosom and pressed your young breasts.”
(Ezekiel 23:18-21)
