Those who would impose their religious beliefs on the rest of us are no better than the Taliban, the right-wing Orthodox in Israel or the Iranian mullahs. They have no place interfering in our secular government. Period, end of story. Render unto Caesar, etc. Also, try reading the First Amendment some time.

Being a bigger asshole than the average Trump advisor is an accomplishment that should be recognized.

But, but…god has told them that they are Right, and the rest of us are wrong. That makes them superior to us, and that is something they will never give up willingly.

My niece attends Two Rivers, my sister just confirmed that if this lawsuit is found in favor of the protestors it would probably shut the school down.

I do not suppose or expect that the lies these fanatics are just positive that they are right about will ever be accepted by them as false. Facts do not matter. It is religion with them, and in their solidified minds they are crusaders for god, so anyone who disagrees with them is just a heathen, and not worthy of consideration.
They do not care who they hurt on their way to cram their religion down our throats. It is god’s will.

Jenna Ellis, Weld County Colorado. If you have ever driven through Weld County, you cannot forget the smell of the place. She is such a part of the stench that there is no way she can ever rid herself of it. They say everything trump touches turns to shit, well she is proof positive that even shit can turn to shit.

God, via the Bible, never said they (many Bible beaters) were right. Even the Bible is pretty explicit that the fetus does not become a human until it takes it’s first breath (of air, I would presume). Several times God, through the Bible, says that only he has the right to judge anyone.
I know you were being sarcastic but the above is a couple of facts you might be able to use.

Isn’t it about time the pro-choice folks exercised their First Amendment rights and marched around outside wherever these anti-choice folks hold their planning meetings? Let their neighbors know the American Taliban lives next door.

I fully realize that the Bible does not support much of what the christofascists “believe”. The thing is that they understand the Bible just about as well as they understand our Constitution. They let others do their “understanding” and interpretation for them. Much easier than actually thinking for themselves.
We who are secular and the mainstream christians have accommodated their ignorance and their fanaticism in the name of being liberal and broad minded. It is up to us to fight back from way behind now in order to restore some sort of sanity in this country…not to mention democracy.

This is the kind of sneaky shit these pukes pull all the time. Makes me wanna spit. I just hate their underhanded tactics. I’m so grateful someone is keeping a watchful eye out for it because they do this kind of thing all the fucking time, in going against what most people would never want in a million years. You can almost set your watch to it (though I’m not sure people wear watches much anymore).
