Liar.

I'm not an athiest, I am like the founding fathers, who distrusted and warned us about fundamentalist rightwing churches trying to inject themselves into our government. That is precisely why we have the separation of church and state. I like religious people who don't put their beliefs on you. The rightwing religious zealots do. They're almost like a big cult. and many of their beliefs are complete hogwash. Half of their leaders are also greedy conmen a la Jim Bakker.

Separation of Church and State is a very American concept. The Greeks and Romans combined religion and government. The kings of Europe all claimed a divine right to rule the people. And now America is falling back to a form of a combined government/religion too. In Revelation the harlot riding the beast drunk with the blood of the saints is the apostate Christian Church. That ought to give an idea of where we're headed today.
