I spent my childhood in the Bible Belt.
Christian adults were obsessed with:
• prayer in school
• making abortion illegal
• putting god back in America
The "silent majority", as they referred to themselves, has won. I never thought they would.
I remember hearing this "song" by Christian music artist Carmen.
The lyrics are wild, but summarize the loss of the US Christian theocracy (and now its return).
As a gay atheist, I am sad about the loss of freedom from religion in the US.
The population trends are still clear: the Republican hold on the south will fall within a decade. It’s just going to be a shitty decade.
