Throughout the regime of the last Yarborough administration, Constitutional law was totally ignored, and Christian law prevailed, which made it appear that we are living in a theocracy in this town, run by the First Baptist Church.
It is time that our Council get back to being a city in the USA where mostly is lived by Constitutional law rather than Southern Baptist law. We have become more and more a diverse city from what it was the first time I lived here in the late 1940s and when we moved here permanently 57 years ago. I think it is time that our City Council recognizes how diverse this city is…that we have all religions here as well as the growing number of the non-religious. Please respect all of our citizens and abide by the First amendment rather than the Christian bible.
