Opposition Letter - Ohio House Bill 8

Dear Governor DeWine,  

My name is Kay Schneider, I am a religious evangelist based in Northeast Ohio, and I oppose House Bill 8.

I have several reasons why I oppose HB 8; these being:

1. I'd Really Rather You Didn't compel irreligious school board members to adopt or establish religious released time policies, as this may run afoul of the First Amendment.

2. I’d Really Rather You Didn’t add to the workload of school boards when they are already required to adopt or establish policies by at least 23 other sections (3313.20 to 3313.98) of the Ohio Revised Code.  

3. I’d Really Rather You Didn’t neglect to inform those in favor of increasing the workload of school boards that Section 3313.602 of the Ohio Revised Code already states:
“(B)… the board of education … shall ensure that the principles of democracy and ethics are emphasized and discussed wherever appropriate in all parts of the curriculum for grades kindergarten through twelve.
(C) Each … school board shall adopt policies that encourage all certificated and noncertificated employees to be cognizant of their roles in instilling ethical principles and democratic ideals in all district pupils.”

4. I’d Really Rather You Didn’t give certain fantastically funded religious programs an unequal proselytizing advantage over religions that aren't equipped to indoctrinate children During School Hours.

5. I’d Really Rather You Didn’t sign HB 8 because it could open a can of “noodles” that may be best left sealed.  

Thank you for your time, your service to our state of Ohio, and for your consideration of my reasons for opposing HB 8.

May Peace and Pasta be with you,

Sister Kay Schneider

In The Beginning...

The beginnings of my Pastafarian ministry took root in March 2020, when I was trying to find truth in the mire of the media of the time.  Seven months prior, I'd resigned my position on a church Administrative Board after piecing together a trail of deception by the Pastor.  I was done  with being "preached at" in 2019, and the media climate of 2020 filled me with disgust. My unsuccessful search for truth in March 2020 left me feeling very low... so low that I slogged to Virginia Beach to stare at the Atlantic Ocean.  At Virginia Beach, I found comfort - because no matter how many things were shut down, Mother Nature and her tides wouldn't be scared into submission. Even with the peaceful waves in view, I kept searching for truth in media content.  I searched all the major religions for their statements on the demands for submission.  I searched... and searched... and searched.   I wish I could remember exactly what linked me to the Church of the ...
