I'd say Thomas Paine certainly did, Sammy! LOL! All national institutions of churches, whether Jewish, Christian or Turkish, appear to me no other than human inventions, set up to terrify and enslave mankind, and monopolize power and profit. Thomas Paine

I usually test to be a liberal-libertarian in such measures. I do not relate to the sanctimonious left anymore than the religio right - those who wants to censor and control art, and restrict adult consensual behaviors (but those who do dangerous things should be responsible for consequences intended and unintended.) Also, I am willing to take on the public safety unions who abuse their power and are bankrupting states and cities gaming the pension system. This does not mean I am against paying well for for quality Law Enforcement and Firefighters.
