Pro-Life & Pro Theocracy
In case you believed the anti-abotion activists actually are worried about “baby killing” rather than trying a)controlling women and b)starting a theocracy, this story should shed any misconception.
Some crazy people from Operation Save America decided it was worth getting arrested to protest a Hindu prayer in the senate. These people terrify me.

Jesus F’ing Christ, what a bunch of ahistorical idiots. The ‘Founding Fathers’ were not Christians! Their so-called “Christian historian’s” claims, “In Hindu (sic), you have not one God, but many, many, many, many, many gods,” the Christian historian David Barton maintained. “And certainly that was never in the minds of those who did the Constitution, did the Declaration [of Independence] when they talked about Creator — that’s not one that fits here because we don’t know which creator we’re talking about within the Hindu religion.”
Sadly, this statement reveals that this guy has no right to call himself a historian, because the Founding Fathers were believers in RELIGIOUS TOLERANCE and FREEDOM OF RELIGION. For evidence that the Founding Fathers were NOT Christians, read this essay which includes EVIDENCE, such as: “The Treaty of Tripoli, passed by the U.S. Senate in 1797, read in part: “The government of the United States is not in any sense founded on the Christian religion.”"

every nation has their own set of theocratic nuts. these people are obviously immune to serious debates about founders’ actual beliefs and the scope and meaning of the first amendment. but I’m not upset about the fact that these lunatics exist. what’s upsets me is how much influence these misguided “american patriots” have over american politics.
