“And when you pray, do not be like the hypocrites, for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on the street corners to be seen by others.”
they really don’t like it when you hit ‘em with the Matthew 6:5
Or any Bible verse that contradicts their actions.
thats taken out of context
Oh really, how?! Lmao 🤣
Because they never see themselves as hypocritical.
That's when you follow up with the Austin 3:16
Which preceded the ass whooping.
The Nazis always show you who they are
careful, wouldn’t want to get lashings from the edge on this one

Openly pray to Satan in school, since it's perfectly legal
No sir I am allowed to slaughter that goat in the middle of the classroom. It's my noon-prayer ritual
I believe I can best continue to advocate for constitutional freedom and religious liberty by working from outside the school system so that is what I will do
Damnit, he's going to run for Congress.
Yep, the grift continues.
Fucking exactly... These chucklefucks are like influencers for right wing media obsessed morons.
God I hate this timeline.

And when you pray, do not be like the hypocrites, for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on the street corners to be seen by others. Truly I tell you, they have received their reward in full. But when you pray, go into your room, close the door and pray to your Father, who is unseen. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you.

"can best continue to advocate for constitutional freedom and religious liberty by" ostracizing other religious beliefs and making those students feel uncomfortable
This is the part that gets skipped.
It wasn't him just going out and saying a little, quiet prayer to himself. I wouldn't give a shit about that, I don't think anybody would. You do you.
He was bringing a ton of students into the fold. The whole team was praying with him.
He claimed that it wasn't required or expected but come on. You know damn well if you were a player on the team and you're the only guy not praying, you're gonna have a bad time.
Something tells me that you would also have found yourself quickly dropped from the team.
Love how SCOTUS misrepresented facts in this case. Thanks Cardinal Alito and Cult Lady Barrett.
Just Like the lady who recently claimed an LGBTQ couple wanted her business to serve them against her religious beliefs and then we all found out there was no such real customers? She had made up the situation to go to the courts and they still sided with her!!?

Wasn't this one where they just outright invented 'facts' wholesale?
He just decided that "victimhood" pays better than coaching that's all. It's just Economics.
Yet another alt-right podcast begins, sponsored by boner pills and protein powder.
He's always was just another Republican snowflake looking for attention, by doing what the Bible says not to fucking do btw, and money.
Fuck this fake ass Republican bigot, racist, and honestly shitty fake ass Christian.
In other words "news" outlets are paying him more to be on TV as a mouthpiece. C'mon now buddy, almost everyone knows the hustle now.
Wonder what happens if a coach bows and prays to Satan on the field, will his rights be respected too?
Pretty sure it was a political stunt from the start.
This is actually common. My brother in law lost his state job when he enlisted in the National Guard. They claimed it was for another reason, but his issues with managing didn't start until he announced he had enlisted. He sued, won and got his job back after boot camp. His first day back he turned in his 2 Weeks notice. For these cases it's just proving the point and winning the right to go.out on their own terms.
This is a very misleading article and leaves out the (key) first part of his statement:
"[I]t is apparent that the reinstatement ordered by the Supreme Court will not be fully followed after a series of actions meant to diminish my role and single me out in what I can only believe is retaliation by the school district," Kennedy wrote.
They're welcome to try to sue for defamation if he's lying, but I suspect he'll end up winning a pretty penny in a lawsuit of his own.
You can compare what actually happened with what he said. From another article with more info on that:
A divided Supreme Court ultimately ruled that Kennedy had a right to pray under free speech and exercise clauses as long as he wasn’t coercing others to join him.
After the ruling, the district wrote a policy that allows coaches to pray while not actively supervising players if the coaches keep their distance from students when the prayers begin. After that, students can join if they choose.
“I can’t tell them to or not to,” Kennedy acknowledged last week. “If they want to join, cool. If they don’t, cool.”
No students did so at Friday’s game against the Mount Douglas Rams, from Victoria, B.C. A larger-than-normal crowd suggested Kennedy’s supporters showed up, but none stormed the field to join him in prayer, as happened at a 2015 homecoming game. A scattering of applause accompanied the coach’s kneeling at the 50-yard line.
Kennedy quit his full-time job at the Bremerton shipyard before moving to Florida. With his newfound celebrity, he has a promotional website, a book coming out in October and a movie about his life in the works. He speaks to political and religious groups, and says politicians including Republican presidential candidate Ron DeSantis, Florida’s governor, have courted him for his endorsement.
A movie about his life?
What a prideful piece of shit lol
And It will be as trustworthy as the blindside was/is

Do we know what actions these are? Otherwise this quote is meaningless.
