Hello, everyone!
The new spanish president, Pedro Sánchez, declared his atheism openly four years ago.
He said: "I am an atheist, and I think that religion should not be in schools, it must be in churches. Schools should educate in citizenship, not in religious beliefs. That's for the private sector."
Things are going to be very difficult for him now, he won't be able to change anything about this in the next months, and we'll possibly have new elections sometime soon, but at least we can say now that we have an openly atheist president. It feels great!
As a start, he's been the first president in Spain without a bible or cross in his acceptance ceremony!
"Halleluja, go tell it on the mountain", Spain has an atheist president!!!
