Edit: ‘Christian State’ Unlawful
My children have been raised as Christians… even acting as Altar Servers at our Church since they were big enough to carry the Cross. They are both also Honor Roll students. When I told them that a faction of the Republican Party was proposing that Idaho be declared a Christian State, they both exclaimed, “No! You can’t do that. It’s unconstitutional!” They’re not even old enough to vote, yet they have more common sense, and a better understanding of our Constitution and Democratic process than the adults who concoct these ridiculous ideas… and they have more political and social awareness than both the Republicans who have been elected to office in this state, and the constituents who voted for them/ Mike Patrick , Coeur d’Alene Press.
