I don't mind at all. I took the invisible friend thing from a joke- that went something along the lines that religious wars could be distilled down to: "My invisible friend can beat up your invisible friend" I applied with JAG and almost worked for them. But I changed my mind- since they can send you anywhere and I didn't want to drag Mr X around the country.

The sensible subset of religious people would, IMO, say "enough" before we ended up governed by the Christian version of an ayatollah. Personally, i think we are on our way to that scenario. We could, though, slide quite a way down that slippery slope before the sensible folks wake up. usually, it is always that way and it carries a cost. interestingly, i thought of a parallel with financial markets, how they always exaggerate (either to the upside or the downside).
