Lucky I Had Leviticus to Protect Me

Next, Winter Comes Slowly

Here I am singing Purcell’s “Next, Winter Comes Slowly.”

Day of Reason

Today is the National Day of Reason, not to be confused with the federally funded, annual abuse of the constitution’s establishment clause, the National Day of Prayer, which happens to fall on the same day (the first Thursday in May).

What’s wrong with a National Day of Prayer? Among other things:

The National Day of Prayer violates the First Amendment of the US Constitution because it asks federal and local government entities to set aside tax dollar supported time and space to engage in religious ceremonies. This results in unconstitutional governmental support of religion over no religion.

Why not focus on something we can all participate in? Let’s celebrate a National Day of Reason!
