Even if this campaign “succeeds,” by whatever metrics they want to use, who really wins? Learning about Jesus is useless without considering the applications of those teachings. And when the people behind the campaign refuse to take a clear stand against moral monsters, it’s obvious where their loyalties lie.
There was a Christian preacher years ago who formed a ministry dedicated to helping Christians build bridges with LGBTQ people. Nice idea, right? But the preacher refused to answer questions about whether he thought homosexuality was immoral or whether same-sex marriage was okay. Whatever he thought personally, he felt any formal response would alienate one side or the other so he took the coward’s way out. His ministry no longer exists.
This marketing campaign is destined to end up in that same grave. If Christians aren’t willing to denounce fellow believers in positions of power, despite the glaring link that ties them all together, their religion isn’t worth adopting. And when Christians with hundreds of millions of dollars in pocket change want to pretend that Jesus (as a concept) rises above the worst Christians’ interpretations of biblical teachings, you’re better off avoiding anything they put in front of your face.

Religious groups sue to block Trump’s Religious Liberty Commission
Rev. Paul Brandeis Raushenbush v. Donald Trump was filed in federal district court in New York seeking a declaration the board was unlawfully founded and constituted and to require any documents and recommendations it produces to be made public.
The groups noted separately that the commission is all Christian except for one Orthodox Jewish rabbi: “No members of the commission represent other minority religions, such as Islam, Hinduism, Buddhism or Sikhism or nonreligious Americans, and the commission’s meetings have expressly adopted and promoted purportedly Judeo-Christian ideals and viewpoints, with members routinely expressing their views during meetings that the United States is a Judeo-Christian or Christian nation.”
The action was brought by Interfaith Alliance, Muslims for Progressive Values, Sikh American Legal Defense and Education Fund, and Hindus For Human Rights. They are represented by Democracy Forward and Americans United for Separation of Church and State.
The lawsuit was filed the same day the commission met at the Museum of the Bible in Washington, D.C.
According to the Freedom from Religion Foundation, the commission lived up to its one-sided interpretation of faith in America during what was its fifth gathering.
“Throughout the meeting, commissioners and invited witnesses focused on ideological grievances, culture-war narratives and foreign policy disputes while paying no attention to the growing influence of white Christian nationalism, the erosion of state/church separation, or the ways ‘religious liberty’ rhetoric is being used to justify discrimination and government entanglement with religion,” the foundation reported.
