NEW YORK — New York City Mayor Eric Adams on Thursday said New York kids desperately need “some form of spirituality” to cope with the world they’re facing.
His remarks came two days after he created a sensation by saying he dismissed the separation of church and state, a right enshrined in the First Amendment.
“We need to find a way to introduce some form of spirituality in our children because they’re not fighting against the seen, they’re fighting against the unseen,” he said during a news conference in the City Hall rotunda. “These poor children are growing up in an environment that is — it is just so painful for them.”
