Nobody wants to have one of those anyway. It&#8217;s really about Christian values. It&#8217;s a WWJD question.<br \/><br \/>Should you vote for the party that wants to feed the poor, heal the sick, and welcome the immigrant? Who accept all people as equal, regardless of religion or gender or skin tones?<br \/><br \/>Or should you choose the &#8216;Good Guys&#8217;, the one&#8217;s in Red Hats, who think they have the right to force their &#8216;Christian&#8217; beliefs upon all American women? Upon the rest of secular America. It&#8217;s not the Beliefs, it&#8217;s the forcing. Don&#8217;t let them lie to you: Christians aren&#8217;t hated for what they believe. It&#8217;s more what they DO in &#8220;God&#8217;s Name&#8221; that pisses people off. <br \/><br \/>At some point, you gotta ask yourself honestly: How would you like it if someone forced YOU to join the Satanic Temple? Or if they changed The Pledge to &#8220;One Nation, Under Allah&#8221; and forced you to say it. Or put &#8220;In Beelzebub We Trust&#8221; on the Greenback? Putting 666 on every bill, coin or credit card?<br \/><br \/>Because if you allow them to do it in Jesus name, they could do it in Lucifer&#8217;s in 2028, right? We&#8217;d all be much better off, by the way, because the Satanic Temple would allow us freedom to worship as (or IF) we please. #FirstAmendmentRights are important, right? <br \/><br \/>But finally, it&#8217;s your choice to make. Decide wisely, while you still have a choice. Re-read that last Book in your Bible (before they censor IT&#8230;again) and maybe seek God&#8217;s advice, if you STILL have doubts. You don&#8217;t need me to tell you what it says about&#8230;well, you know. #AwakeNotWoke <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"465\" height=\"279\" data-attachment-id=\"18574\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/jamiegraymusic.com\/wordpress\/1677022344446\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/jamiegraymusic.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/1677022344446.jpg?fit=465%2C279&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"465,279\" data-comments-opened=\"0\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"1677022344446\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/jamiegraymusic.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/1677022344446.jpg?fit=465%2C279&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/jamiegraymusic.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/1677022344446.jpg?fit=465%2C279&amp;ssl=1\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/jamiegraymusic.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/1677022344446.jpg?resize=465%2C279&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-18574\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/jamiegraymusic.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/1677022344446.jpg?w=465&amp;ssl=1 465w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/jamiegraymusic.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/1677022344446.jpg?resize=210%2C126&amp;ssl=1 210w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 465px) 100vw, 465px\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Protest for Women&#8217;s Rights<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"980\" height=\"984\" data-attachment-id=\"18576\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/jamiegraymusic.com\/wordpress\/img_20210507_142402_067\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/jamiegraymusic.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/IMG_20210507_142402_067.jpg?fit=1080%2C1084&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"1080,1084\" data-comments-opened=\"0\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"IMG_20210507_142402_067\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/jamiegraymusic.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/IMG_20210507_142402_067.jpg?fit=1020%2C1024&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/jamiegraymusic.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/IMG_20210507_142402_067.jpg?fit=980%2C984&amp;ssl=1\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/jamiegraymusic.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/IMG_20210507_142402_067.jpg?resize=980%2C984&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-18576\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/jamiegraymusic.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/IMG_20210507_142402_067.jpg?w=1080&amp;ssl=1 1080w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/jamiegraymusic.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/IMG_20210507_142402_067.jpg?resize=1020%2C1024&amp;ssl=1 1020w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/jamiegraymusic.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/IMG_20210507_142402_067.jpg?resize=150%2C150&amp;ssl=1 150w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/jamiegraymusic.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/IMG_20210507_142402_067.jpg?resize=768%2C771&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/jamiegraymusic.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/IMG_20210507_142402_067.jpg?resize=210%2C210&amp;ssl=1 210w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 980px) 100vw, 980px\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">WWJD?<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dear Christian Friends,There&#8217;s a lot more to it than abortion.
