$5 Friday: Secular Student Alliance
I know it’s not Friday anymore, but I’m running late and don’t want to miss a $5 Friday. This week I’ve supported the Secular Student Alliance.
Had enough of Americans coming out of school believing humans lived with dinosaurs, environmentalism fails to properly value the afterlife, wars against people who believe the wrong nonsense are justified, and Bible-thumping morons make the best legislators?
