I have many American friends, it was decided a long time ago to not discuss American politics and the religious zealots within their country. It causes too many arguments, and it embarrasses them. I fear that the 50% of America that is not anti-intellectual will have their voices drowned out by Gods flock of fucking morons. For an example, see Maddows ratings against those of the dip shits on Fox.

Turn out the lights on the way out, your empire is no more.

I think its time to pull the plug on America before these Jesus freaks kill us all. They possess enough weaponry to destroy the global population many times over, how long until a REAL religious nut get into the White House, not like that monkey Bush who used these mindless bible thumpers to win elections.

@Darcalott Um....you mean 'theocracy' not 'theology'.

[Darcalott]

we are a DEMOCRACY. not a theology. if you want a theology based government, take a flight to Iran and have fun there.

I seriously want to move to UK if these radical Jesus freaks are allowed to run for US office.

@mjfnicolson I live in America, born and raised, and love my country, but George Carlin was right when he said, "People in America are DUMB!" I went to a book store recently, the Christianity/religion section was about 8 or 9 bookshelves long right up against the main wall. The science section? 3 small bookshelves in the very back corner of the store next to the bathrooms. You actually have to go out of your way to find the science section. We're doomed.

abortion is a form of sacrifice, so according to his logic, those who submit to an abortion are following his old testament decree. Xtian right believe that fetus is a live so aborting/killing/sacrificing is fulfilling bible.

@proud2bpagan Thank you! :)

@MCrushala That you shall set apart unto the LORD all that opens the womb, and every firstling that comes of a beast which you have; the males shall be the LORD'S.

13And every firstling of a donkey you shall redeem with a lamb; and if you will not redeem it, then you shall break its neck: and all the firstborn of man among your children shall you redeem.

@martiandog89 There aren't different sides to evidence. How am I closed minded? You are the one that believes in unsubstantiated mythology. You are the one who exchanges knowledge for religion, not me. Yes, I am secular, but I am a conservative and almost always vote republican. Nice try, with the liberal slander.  As people, the human species, are becoming smarter, we have less need for religion. You think I have a disgusting nature, that's a nice judgement for a religious person.
