With this court, it's a tossup whether they'll throw this out as blatantly unconstitutional or codify a Christian-only requirement for all government positions.

That doesn’t sound very constitutional to me…

This is a Christian nation. The dollar bills say so.

Like the constitution says: "Unification of church and state"

It is only a theistic nation, the dollar bill says “In god we trust” but doesn’t specify which one. It doesn’t have to be Yaldabaoth / Jeovah / Yahweh / Allah !

Maybe they meant Azathoth, or Gwyn : Lord of Sunlight ? Maybe even the Emperor of Man !

Unfortunately republicans don't recognize the distinction, when they read god, it means the christian god no one else.

Can’t wait for the Satanic Temple’s response.

Pass the popcorn. 🍿

Forget Satanists. Just wait until you start getting Muslim Chaplains.

Can't say I see a reason for such a position to even exist.
