Our elected officials seem confused on the concept of the separation of church and state.

My tax dollars at work. Official pronouncements from people who know better, but don't care:

On Easter Sunday, we are reminded that light defeated darkness and our risen Lord gave us all hope in an eternal future. From the Youngkin family to yours, we wish you a blessed Easter!

Isn't that a pagan fertility symbol? Where did the Easter Bunny appear during the Crucifixion and resurrection story?



"For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son..." John 3:16

Wishing everyone a blessed and joyous Easter Sunday.

He is Risen!

Interesting, as the origin of the First arose among Virginians, eh? (and New Englanders!)

shows a guy who resembles what evangelicals think jesus looked like, working in an office setting. It says "HE IS RISEN to middle management."
