NYC Mayor Eric Adams Says Lack Of Prayer Is Leading To Homelessness And Violence
He also said in his speech that a stronger belief in God will help children in school.
“Why can’t our children read and write? Why don’t they behave?” he said. “We are destroying our next generation, destroying them. And we say over and over again, ‘We need to build a world that’s better for our children.’ No, we need to build children that’s better for our world. And we have to be honest about that. And it means instilling in them some level of faith and belief.”
The mayor, who described himself as a “servant of God,” said he puts policies in place “with a God-like approach to them.”
“Don’t tell me about no separation of church and state,” he added. “State is the body. Church is the heart. You take the heart out of the body, the body dies.”
