“Spider-Noir” Review

Ben Reilly, an aging and down on his luck private investigator in 1930s New York, is forced to grapple with his past life as the city’s one and only superhero.

An utterly enjoyable and well made noir story that just happens to feature some super powered characters acting like every other character in every other noir film I’ve ever watched. I’ve slowly fallen in love with the genre and Spider-Noir does all it’s homages the way I like them, hardboiled in an optional black and white.

La. school system heeds FFRF call to ban the Gideons

The Freedom From Religion Foundation has successfully advised a Louisiana school district to bar a religious organization from handing out bibles to its students.

A concerned family member informed the state/church watchdog that on Sept. 26 of last year, Herndon Magnet School (located in Belcher, La.) permitted Gideons International to address students and distribute bibles to youngsters on school grounds during the school day. Gideons International is “an evangelical association that equips and mobilizes Christian business and professional men, along with their wives, to share God’s word, winning others for Jesus worldwide.” Herndon Magnet School’s official Facebook page stated (image above): “We were so thankful to be visited by the Gideon Ministry this morning! They spoke with our 5th graders and offered each student the opportunity to receive a Youth New Testament Bible.” (The post no longer appears on the Herndon Magnet School Facebook page.)
School-sponsored bible distributions are unconstitutional, FFRF reminded the school district.

“It is inappropriate and unconstitutional for Caddo Parish Public Schools to allow outside groups to distribute religious materials to students,” FFRF Legal Fellow Charlotte Gude wrote to Caddo Parish Public Schools Superintendent Keith S. Burton. “By allowing Gideons International to distribute bibles to students, Caddo Parish Public Schools displays blatant favoritism for religion over nonreligion and Christianity above all other faiths. Further, it appears that the school itself hosted and promoted the bible distribution. When school staff encourages young students to take bibles, they run the risk of unconstitutionally coercing students to take, read and reflect upon religious literature.”

Further, FFRF pointed out, this bible distribution and social media promotion needlessly marginalized all students and families who do not practice Christianity. As much as 38 percent of the American population is non-Christian, including the almost 30 percent who are nonreligious. More than half of Generation Z members (those born after 1996) are non-Christian, including the 43 percent who are nonreligious.

FFRF urged that to respect the constitutional rights of students and parents, Caddo Parish Public Schools must cease allowing the Gideons International and any other organizations to distribute bibles or other religious literature to students. Its call did not go unheeded.

“Please be advised that the staff at Herndon Magnet School has been advised to not allow the Gideons to distribute bibles during the school day at school,” the general counsel for the Caddo Parish School Board recently replied in an email.

FFRF is pleased that its appeal to follow the Constitution fell on receptive ears.

“Religious groups and individuals should not be given access to a captive audience of vulnerable young children,” comments FFRF Co-President Annie Laurie Gaylor. “Religious instruction belongs with parents, not strangers exploiting our public schools. We’re glad officials realized the impropriety of this when we raised concerns.”

The Freedom From Religion Foundation is a national nonprofit organization with over 41,000 members across the country, including more than 100 members in Louisiana. Its purposes are to protect the constitutional principle of separation between state and church, and to educate the public on matters relating to nontheism.

FFRF pushes back against wave of Texas Ten Commandments displays

The Freedom From Religion Foundation is objecting to a new Ten Commandments monument outside Amarillo City Hall — the second such display in Texas that it has recently confronted.

The state/church watchdog has sent a letter to the Amarillo mayor and City Council members contending that statements made during the monument’s dedication ceremony describing the biblical monument in explicitly religious terms demonstrate the display serving a religious purpose. Monument coordinator Trent Morgan stated that “all laws are based on a moral code and they come from the bible” and said the monument reflects “who we are as a people.” Morgan also said that the display was intended to encourage future generations to believe in God and understand that they were created “in His image.” During the ceremony, attendees prayed and proclaimed that Amarillo was being claimed for the Lord: “We’re claiming this city for the Lord. No devil’s going to come in here and take his heart, because we’re going to stand up, we’re going to fight for this city.”

Such statements undermine any claim that this monument was installed for a so-called historical purpose. Furthermore, FFRF Co-President Annie Laurie Gaylor notes, “There is no historic purpose for a city or other U.S. entity to display the Ten Commandments. These biblical edicts are not part of U.S. history, our Declaration of Independence, much less our godless Constitution, whose only references to religion are exclusionary.”

FFRF Legal Counsel Chris Line has written to Amarillo Mayor Cole Stanley: “Displaying the Ten Commandments in front of City Hall is not only an unconstitutional display of favoritism toward religion, it needlessly marginalizes and excludes city residents who do not share the religious beliefs that the Ten Commandments embody and represent.”

The recent push to install Ten Commandments monuments on government property in Texas is a troubling trend.

“Public officials who seek to use government institutions to promote religious messages should be censured. They have no business telling citizens how many gods to worship, which gods to worship or whether to worship any gods at all!” says Gaylor. “The First Commandment is a clear and egregious violation of the First Amendment.”

FFRF notes that the Amarillo monument comes on the heels of its separate challenge to a Ten Commandments display in Rockwall County just a few days ago.

FFRF explains that government-sponsored Ten Commandments displays alienate residents who do not share the religious beliefs represented by the monument and conflict with the constitutional principle that government must remain neutral on matters of religion. It is asking Amarillo officials to remove the monument and respect the rights of conscience of all city residents.

The Freedom From Religion Foundation is a national nonprofit organization with over 41,000 members and several chapters nationwide, including more than 1,700 members and a chapter in Texas. FFRF’s purposes are to defend the constitutional principle of separation between church and state, and to educate the public on matters relating to nontheism.
