Wait until they learn that Thomas Jefferson as President used to attend Christian services held in the chambers of Congress. The past is the undiscovered country for too many today.

The Washington Post (the Compost) can’t let go of its baked-in leftist bias. Bezos would have a better time of it firing everyone, imploding the Post building and starting over….but the Compost really isn’t worth the effort.
Washington, DC is a place where one can see stickers plastered nearly everywhere saying “Stop the Nazi-GOP Alliance!”
When visiting Our Nation’s Capital, remember that too many of the locals either checked their sanity upon entering the District or never had much to begin with.

The lack of a proper eduction that people are getting nowadays is scary, anything that account for Christianity is forbidden. By contrast, when I was at UC San Diego and had a class in the Reformation/Counter Reformation, we were required to read a lot of religious texts, even St. John of the Cross’ book “The Dark Night” (imagine, teen-agers doing that now!) because they were thought essential. I hear that’s not the reality anymore, much to the detriment of the student.
Presentism, the idea that no one before us could possibly have been as smart as we are, and that no idea of the past can possibly be valid today, is the leading component of the secular religion. Without it, their house of cards tumbles.
