Lauren Boebert (R-CO) wants Biblical training in schools [View all]

Don't know how I missed this one.

Bet she's never even read the thing, but has to show everyone how pious she is. Come on, Colorado, let's do the right thing and kick this fool out of Congress before her ignorance spreads further.

Republican Lauren Boebert says she wants ‘biblical citizenship training’ in public schools

Boebert’s chilling comments were made on an episode of FlashPoint, a Christian news show which airs on the Victory Channel, owned by the anti-LGBTQ+ televangelist Kenneth Copeland.

The Colorado Republican and gun rights activist, who has previously said that LGBTQ+ people should be banned from coming out before the age of 21, discussed the upcoming midterm elections and said Republicans must prove that they will “get America rolling again”.

She added: “Maybe we need to have some sort of legislation that requires… biblical citizenship training in our schools. And that’s how we get things turned around.”

Snip

Speaking at a Colorado church, she told a crowd: “The church is supposed to direct the government. The government is not meant to direct the church. That is not how our founding fathers intended it.
