Missouri Gov. Mike Parson has no "litmus test for appointments," his spokeswoman said Friday, despite a statement earlier in the week indicating he would only nominate a state health director who shared his "Christian values."
The Republican governor, a Baptist, was angered after the Missouri Senate effectively ousted Donald Kauerauf as director of the Missouri Department of Health and Senior Services. Though Kauerauf opposes government mask and vaccine mandates and opposes abortion, hardline conservatives in the legislature questioned if he was conservative enough.

I thought we want people in positions based on merit? Separation of religion and government is a must.

Hmm. What does being Christian have to do with one's ability to run the Dept. of Health and Services? Oh they want a religious extremist that is anti-women's choice and force religious values in the government workplace.
