An open letter to the President & U.S. Congress; State Governors & Legislatures

You’re Not Defending Faith—You’re Destroying It

9 so far! Help us get to 10 signers!

Rep. Greg Steube shouting “I rebuke you in the name of Jesus!” at Speaker Johnson wasn’t just a stand for faith—it was the sound of a party collapsing under the weight of its own hypocrisy. You claim to be the party of Christian values. Then prove it. Jesus didn’t cage children, sell visas to billionaires, or reward the rich while cutting food assistance. He didn’t stage Bible photo ops or scream Scripture to win power struggles. He stood with the poor, the sick, the outcast—and he had no patience for religious hypocrites. You invoke God’s name while doing the opposite of what He taught. You pass laws that harm the vulnerable, prop up lies, and punish truth-tellers. You say God would bless your decisions—but if you truly believed that, you wouldn’t need to shout it. Your actions would speak for themselves. But they don’t. So let’s be honest: you don’t believe. You’ve traded faith for theater. And the worst part? You are making atheists of us and our children. We see your hate, your greed, your endless contradictions—and we walk away from your God, thinking: If this is what He looks like, who would want any part of it? And we are walking away from the Republican Party, too. You’re not defending Christianity. You’re disfiguring it. You are no longer a party of faith. You are a party of religious fanatics, wrapped in flags and Scripture you don’t live by—demanding we post the Ten Commandments while you break every one. You rebuke each other in Jesus’ name while trampling everything He stood for. We see through the lies. And so will history. Do your job. Stand for the Constitution and the America you were elected to represent—not the devil you now serve
