OMG – Someone please control Christine O’donnell

[jstoesz]

That was a sarcastic joke (hopefully that was obvious), but to extrapolate from O’donnell, a documented retard, to the tea party (more of a feeling/ethic than a party) I find invalid.

I think it is more extreme right-wing. You could also say that of the hard left PC crowd too – though their approach is not ‘religious’.

Semi on-topic. PBS has been airing a 3 part series called “God In America”. (Haven’t watched all of it yet – just the first 2 hours). A really good background on the role religion plays in our government.

For example – I learned that Virginia had tax dollars going to the Anglican Church prior to the constitution and bill of rights. I learned that religion in the public classrooms, in New York was standard until the Catholics protested that it was all protestant teachings – and disallowed Catholic teachings.

It gives good background on how the 1st amendment was put in place to specifically to NOT favor one religion over another – and the background behind that need.

Very interesting series.

(You can watch it online, too.)

I watched the first part online (I finally hooked up a computer to my TV).

I do take exception to their saying that religion is part of our DNA. Religion is part of history, nothing to do with DNA. There is no historical and cultural DNA.

Some of us may think that we have a special relationship with God, but we don’t, because there’s no God.
