Happy Easter!
If you don’t celebrate Easter as religious event, you can still have Easter-like activities, such as an egg hunt. And, this year Easter falls on a day celebrating the equality and rights of transgender people. Here is what president Biden said:
“On Transgender Day of Visibility, we celebrate the joy, strength, and absolute courage of some of the bravest people I know. Today, we show millions of transgender and nonbinary Americans that we see them, they belong, and they should be treated with dignity and respect (President Joe Biden).”

Article: Is It Healthier To Raise Children In A Secular Home?
Is Raising Your Kids Without Religion Better? From the article:
- “For secular people, morality is predicated on one simple principle: empathetic reciprocity, widely known as the Golden Rule. Treating other people as you would like to be treated. It is an ancient, universal ethical imperative. And it requires no supernatural beliefs.”
Religion Hurting Kids: The Question of Science
One common situation to find among religious people is the denial of evolution and climate change. Evolution is denied because it contradicts the Genesis creation account, and climate change is denied because God’s perfect creation wouldn’t allow humanity to destroy itself. Consider the following article where a state tries to institutionalize these superstitions in the state education standards.
Successful People
“You miss 100% of the shots you don’t take (Wayne Gretzky).”
There are many different things you can be successful at, but often times successful people share similar traits with one another like creativity and hard work.
Activity: Research a successful person and dot-jot what qualities helped them to succeed.
Who’s Afraid Of The Big Bad Wolf?

OK Education Chief: “We Want The Bible In Schools”
- “Instead of allowing Biden and the unions to inject their ideology through graphic pornography like ‘Gender Queer’ and “Flamer,’ we want the Constitution, we want the bible in our schools where kids understand our nation’s history and what has made this country great. The reality is that the bible is a foundational document in our country’s history. Read the Founders, read their letters, listen to what these men and women said about why founding a country with the freedom of religion, the free exercise of religion was so important.” – Oklahoma Education Superintendent Ryan Walters, today on Fox Business.
