There is no right or wrong here, only how things work.

The first amendment protects your beliefs. This is not about speech, speech is protected separately. This is about the things you can do that are protected by law. If you want Sundays off because God said so, the courts will enforce your right to Sundays off. If you want Sundays off because you rolled a die and it came up Sundays then either you’re working Sundays or you quit your job for one that gives you Sundays off.

The first amendment also silences you. You are not allowed to teach or share your beliefs in settings that could be considered governmental.

This weakness is not shared with people who hitch their beliefs to a protected class under civil rights and hate speech laws. Not only can you participate in violence and anarchy and sue your boss for firing you by calling them racist/sexist/etc, you can also teach your beliefs in governmental settings and have your teaching protected by court order.

I do not think the socialists picked racism to mask their objectives because of this benefit, but I do think race socialists survived where other socialists couldn’t because they lucked into this legal shelter.

If we want the same legal shelter for ourselves, we need two islands of thought and a bridge between them.

If none of our actions are rooted in religion, we have no protection under freedom of religion, and no legal shelter.

If all our actions are rooted in religion, we have no way to teach in the same environments as race socialism, and our legal shelter becomes our casket.

You may now return to right and wrong.

I had this idea about 30 seconds after I posted, this is normal for me:

Religious activism, secular activity. Set up a religious event and use it to discuss the 1776 project. If anyone gets fired for attending the event, hit them with freedom of religion and demand the right to keep your job. If we can turn religion into a shelter from cancel culture, I believe a lot more people will be open about their support for American secular values.
