Sounds like a violation of the establishment clause, the government mandates that the Christian religion isn’t permitted in the public square.I wonder though if it were the Elijah Mohammad outreach ministry and they were distributing The Final Call “newspaper” with every meal if there would be any “concern” with improper religious messaging?
Hey, Flick!
Just watch what you say. Our manly president has stated on national tv that if Americans criticize their leaders and their government “there’s gonna be trouble.”
The USDA policy boils down to the “separation of church and state” that secular groups read into the First Amendment.
Who gives a shot what the atheist read into anything?
Food is not the Government.
The USDA does not set social policy for the Government
In no manner does this pass the smell test.
I don't believe he is a muslim. I believe he is a rabid, foaming at the mouth, anti-christian atheist who only supports muslims because in his mind they are a persecuted (by white christians) minority who only lash out due to their justified anger at said persecution. He sees everything through the eyes of a 1st year sociology student where all badness in the world is born out of anger from some sort of White/Christian oppression. Thus, if you allow the persecuted groups (gays, muslims, blacks, women, mexicans, snail darters,...) to thrive, the anger will subside and the world will be at peace. Well, except for those White/Christians, who of course will need to be taught a lesson.
No, he is no Muslim, he is a dangerous spiteful atheist who is playing with fire way beyond his feeble mind's ability to control. If he even cares if it gets out of control. Which he very well may not. IMHO.
So Tom Vilsack, head of USDA, detests Christians, but throws a seder for his religion at the USDA and promises to do it every year. He’s just another hypocrite Christian hater. It’s not just the Muslims that loath Christians apparently.
Next time there is a major disaster in a majority muslim, hindu or other third world country, let them deal with it. No US aid of any sort, period! The US shouldn’t be propping any religion, right?
KEEP your Christian symbols.
REMOVE the food pantry.
Simple.
Let’s face it, we have an anti-Christ government. Unless the hearts of Americans are changed radically by God’s power and love we are a doomed culture. I see no national repentance on the horizon. Christians in the Middle East and else where are giving their lives for the Lord so we can’t complain too much. But it’s not too big a stretch to say - it’s coming to a community near you - soon. We need to oppose our government in these areas but our real strength comes in doing what this food pantry is doing - sharing Christ with those in need and with our neighbors, friends, coworkers - and be willing to suffer for it or be ashamed of His name. We know which direction the world is headed in - we just don’t know the exact time. Israel is God’s time piece. Her enemies are in the process of surrounding her in an attempt to destroy her - just like the Bible said would happen near the end of time. It’s very sad to see our nation on the wrong side of this fight. We know who wins in the end, however. Pray for the heart’s of our countrymen that they may soften towards the Gospel and God’s offer of His Son.
Socialists/Totalitarians Say Florida Food Pantry Must Remove Its Christian Symbols.
Another uaccountable bureaucracy set up by socialists. Unaccountable bureaucrats are socialists. BIG GOVERNMENT IS CRONY SOCIALISM. “Socialism Is Legal Plunder” - Bastiat
He has erected a multitude of New Offices, and sent hither swarms of Officers to harrass our people, and eat out their substance.

DEPOPULATE socialists/totalitarians from the body politic. DEFUND their collectives, foreign and domestic.
live - free - republic
God bothers the crooks much indeed.
Hitler mentioned he did not believe in God and hated all religions, but if there was a good religion, it was Islam according to him.
The three Cs that the Clown hates: Christianity, the Constitution, and capitalism.
Because everybody knows that religious symbols make food spoil and unsafe. /s
Government wants immunity. All who go in there expect to stay in there no matter. God removes that immunity from them through elections, term limits etc...
We can’t have the one true God getting any credit for Christian charity, can we?
Donation coming as soon as I get some disposable income. Hopefully by the end of Sep.
Might make a day of it and drive there to donate.

Since when does this agency determine anything like this????
In this perfect fool’s paradise the central socialist government’s agencies can do anything they damn well please as long as it makes no sense.
They shouldn’t quit dealing with the USDA automatically, for to do so in itself is a type of capitulation.
They should sue the USDA. It is already established law that a government agency cannot discriminate on the basis of religion. The ACLJ would be happy to take the case up. (Note for those who do not know, the ACLJ (American Center for Law and Justice) is not to be confused with the ACLU.)
It’s bad policy to back down from a bully, especially when you have a good case.
Don’t drone me, bro!
