Rosie O'Donnel has changed. She used to be hilarious, her stand-up routine was fucking gut bustingly funny and irreverant. That's what happens when people take themselves too seriously, I suppose.

The problem is that he tells all those good people who practice no faith at all to pray anyway.
And further, this doesn't say that he accepts them; just that he ackowledges them as being there.

Actions speak louder than bullshit. Do the words "constitutional amendment" sound familiar?

It has to do with shoving his religion down peoples' throats, which is pro-theocracy and anti-secularism. And that is anti-atheism.

He's trying to fuck with the first amendment because of gay marriage; he thinks that if he can ban atheism then somehow the gay marriage movement will calm down (but fails to realize that not all gay people are "godless heathens" as he and the religious right would like to presume).

Edit that, not all people that support the gay marriage movement.

Trying to ban atheism? That's a totally unsupported assertion.

Movement toward theocracy is inherently anti-atheist. What about this do you not understand?

My fault again. I really need to think before hitting the submit button. >_> Today + my brain = not happening.

What I mean is that he's wanting to fuck with the first amendment because he's so religiously delusioned to think that the Constitution should have something from the Bible (thus eliminating atheism, and any non-Judeo-Christian religion from the freedom of religion part of law). It's supposed that gay marriage is supported by godless (atheist) heathens (non-Christians), so if he can "fix" the First Amendment, then he can effectively control religions in the US. First of all, this is unconstitutional, and second, promotes a theocracy (which again eliminates atheism from the picture).

Yes, I understand that, but it verilon specifically said banning it.

Theocracy would be a government where there is no lack of religion, thus, no atheism.. How many other ways do you need it spelled out?

And it's not a black or white thing. We're more theocratic now than we were a couple years ago, and we'll probably be that way for a while. But that doesn't mean we're a full-blown theocracy!

Did I say we were? No. I said Bush is pushing for it.
