K-12 Bible Lessons Program Akin to Proselytizing for β€˜Church of Trump,’ MSNBC Host Claims

A host on liberal MSNBC claimed that teaching students the Bible off-campus during school hours would make themΒ a part of what she called the β€œChurch of Trump” and help β€œdetermine what happens at the ballot box.” 

Alex Wagner’s remarks came in the most recent in a series of three reports over the past two weeks on MSNBC and/or parent company NBC onΒ the nonprofit LifeWise Academy, whose buses pick up some 30,000 students across the country during the school weekΒ and take them to an affiliated church or other off-campus religious institution, presents them with Bible lessons, then returns them to their schools.Β 

The three news and/or commentary piecesΒ were critical, to varying degrees, of the nonprofit for supposedly β€œblurring” the lines of church and state, with one claiming that LifeWise has become a tool of the Right to turn liberal, Democrat-runΒ cities more conservative.Β 

In the most recent piece, Wagner even sought to link LifeWise to former President Donald Trump.Β Β 

The left-leaning host said that Trump has β€œmanaged to turn his Christian followers into politically pious voters, members of the Church of Trump.”  

The connection of Trump to the Bible-teaching nonprofit, Wagner claimed, lies in that LifeWise influences β€œthe minds of public school kids in progressive cities like Columbus [in Ohio].” She went so far as to say the Bible program would β€œdetermine what happens at the ballot box.” 

Neither MSNBC nor NBC responded to requests for comment at the time of publication.Β 

LifeWise’s practices might surprise some, but they’re entirely legal in the United States, says Joel Penton, the nonprofit’s founder and CEO.Β Β 

The Supreme Court, in a 1952 case, Zorach v. Clauson, permitted New York City students to leave their classrooms for religious instruction. Since that case is largely unknown, Penton says, many parents are often surprised when offered the option of midday Bible lessons for their children. Parents often assume that the government has full control over their child’s school day.Β 

β€œI know what people are feeling,” Penton said. β€œThey’re feeling that the school owns that timeβ€”the state owns the time of 8 a.m. [to] 3 p.m., or whatever the school day is, and that’s just not true.”  

Currently, LifeWise serves 323 schools in 12 states, totaling about 30,000+ K-12 students, Penton said in a recent phone interview.Β 

The nonprofit founder says that LifeWise serves students in 12 states, from kindergarten through 12th grade. Some 250 of the programs serve elementary schools, a majority of the total.Β Β 

There’s no charge for participation in LifeWise, Penton said, for either school systems or the student participants.Β Β 

β€œWe want to make the Bible available to all of them [students]. And that’s what we’ve been trying to build, a plug-and-play program any community can implement,” he said. Forthcoming programs are set for schools in Washington state and even California, in a Los Angeles County school.Β Β 

He said he hopes to have LifeWise operating in at least 20 states and 500 schools by this fall.Β Β

Firing Lies: PBS β€˜Documentary’ Tars, Feathers Onetime Host William F. Buckley

In the earlier decades of the Public Broadcasting Service, conservatives could feel that they had some fraction of a platform on William F. Buckley Jr.’s β€œFiring Line.”

That PBS presence no doubt spurred the makers of the β€œAmerican Masters” series to offer a two-hour program titled β€œThe Incomparable Mr. Buckley.” In the opening credits, they typed in β€œInsufferable” first, then crossed it out. That word reflects the view of the political and financial base of PBS.

Fans of Buckley might enjoy the video clips of Buckley jousting with the elites in the 20th century, but the style of this show was annoying in that whenever experts were speaking, they were entirely off-screen.

This documentary by Barak Goodman is neither a valentine to Buckley, nor a fair and balanced recitation of his life and times. Conservatives are interviewed, but the final product carries the distinct odor of PBS’ liberal arrogance.

In the tainted timeline of this program, Buckley triumphs with the election of Ronald Reagan and then the end of the Cold War, and then it’s all downhill for the troglodytes on the Right.

Historian Geoffrey Kabaservice speaks over footage of Newt Gingrich and Rush Limbaugh about conservatism being taken to an extreme as the Republicans took Congress in 1994.

Gingrich, he claims, β€œteaches Republicans to talk in a new way about Democrats being a source of infection and disease and disloyalty and decay.” Then there’s footage of Limbaugh making fun of the β€œugly broads” of feminism.

Over ominous music implying villainy, Kabaservice argues, β€œBuckley did endorse Newt Gingrich and Rush Limbaugh. At some level, he understood that politics requires emotion, as well as intellect, and maybe it requires dark emotions and even hatreds.”

This would match the spirit of PBS’ β€œFiring Line with Margaret Hoover,” where the liberal Republican puts on guests like journalist Tim Alberta, who recently denounced the Limbaugh show as poisoning Christians with β€œan unceasing stream of venom and ugliness and hostility, antagonism, hatred.”

Leftists have an annoying habit of thinking fear and loathing and ugliness and venom are somehow unique to the Republican half of America. They, by contrast, are apparently all sugar and spice and everything nice.

Have they watched five minutes of β€œThe Reidout” or β€œThe View”? Both sides (and center-huggers like Kabaservice) are capable of love and hatred, comfort and fear, civility and incivility.

But on PBS, they must locate experts to slam Buckley for β€œtolerating and sometimes even encouraging some of the nastier, more extreme aspects on the Right … by the end, it was clear the nastier forces had won out.” There’s no name on screen to figure out who’s the mudslinger here.

PBS can never be judged for encouraging the nastier, more extreme aspects of the Left, because in their bubble, no one is ever nasty or extreme where they reside, in a perfect Eden of politics.

Kabaservice returns for the final pitch on that β€œdark side” of the conservative movement, which was β€œwhite Americans” didn’t like β€œchange” (because they were racists, apparently): β€œBuckley understood that it was part of his role to keep a lid on the dark energies that fueled the conservative movement, but not to repress them entirely, because it was those kind of resentments that he was drawing on that gave conservatism its power as a movement.”

Once again, PBS thinks the Democrats get their power from warm wellsprings of idealism and compassion. The Republicans get theirs from nurturing racism, sexism, homophobia, and xenophobia.

Watching this program gives this conservative one overwhelming reaction: I want my involuntary contributions to PBS refunded. Insult me with someone else’s money.
