That is a bit of a selection bias. What you are effectively saying is “the biblical names that have survived to today have staying power”.
But even that isn’t true here as almost all of the names you cite are significantly different now than their original forms. Looking at your list we have Yeshua, Shemuel, Mikael, Rivka, Yohanan, Miriam, and Paulus. Adam is mostly the same, as is David (with a bit of an accent difference), but the rest didn’t exactly emerge as they were.
Separation of church and state is not in the Constitution. The closest you will get is the first amendment, which prevents Congress from establishing a religion, or preventing the free practice of one.
I’m with you that religion should not be forced in schools, but you can’t use the Constitution to prevent this particular issue.
The point being that isn’t in the Constitution
It is if you are doing it in a discussion about whether or not Russia should be allowed to enact wars of aggression…
Well it was about that time I realized this judge was about eight stories tall and was a crustacean from the plethazoic era.
This is a bit late for a response, but it has to do with what protections are afforded by what entity. The US has very explicit treaties signed with allied nations. Canada, for instance is a five eye partner and thus has far less to worry about from the US than it does from China.
Additionally, China has an ongoing bad track record with how it treats other nations. Commercial entities within China are far more at the whim of the state government and are required to act in alignment with the CCP instructions.
People treat China differently because China is different. They very much are a different beast when it comes to authoritarian control of its commercial and private entries.
Whataboutism doesn’t suddenly make the action ok. Two countries doing something wrong doesn’t suddenly excuse the act.
I would have no problem if that popped up in my feed while I was in a public place.
That said, I don’t think it would be safe for work, so the nsfw would apply. But I would not be browsing Lemmy at work either.
