Michelle Quist: 'The icky feeling is coming from my own church’s newspaper, which felt the need to publish an opinion piece from Moms for Liberty — an extremist organization, cleverly titled, but notable for its own Hitler-quoting trash newsletters.'
Founder’s and Constitution Month Committee
” definitely includes some notable people, and even a few friends. So this is a bit uncomfortable. Regardless, this letter could have been crafted with the information and ideas for activities without even mentioning the government committee. More importantly, the committee could have included some more diversity! Why is that so hard in this state?
Even more, the letter encourages families to “study and gain a greater appreciation for the Founding Fathers.” You know why they don’t encourage families to study the Founding Mothers? Because they don’t recognize any. Oh, that’s right, the Constitution didn’t even recognize women as citizens. But let’s keep studying the men. The scriptures just aren’t enough.
So now church will be My Country Tis of Thee in July AND September? I hope we don’t have international visitors that month. I was one of the few houses on my street flying an American flag on the Fourth of July this year. I also flew a pride flag in June. And my wonderfully conservative neighbor came over and helped me stake it into the ground better when he noticed it leaning precariously sideways — and told me to take more pride in my pride flag.
I ran from the crumbling towers on hallowed ground on 9/11. I don’t need help from some committee in September to remember who I am, what it means to be American, or what it means to know God. Nor do my neighbors. I know by their actions that they know God. Isn’t that what the regional leaders should care about? Michelle Quist.
