"From the article:
A prayer is given at the beginning of each Senate and House session, and attendance is hit or miss, particularly on Mondays.
I guess this means that the legislators who are not present / walk out for "business" or any other reason on any other day all also Bigots? I assume that you, Illbay will also call for thier resignation?
The only "tolerance" garenteed in the constitution is that: "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; ". This does not force us to listen to them, only to allow them to beleive what they want to. That is true tolerance, both sides tolerate each other! "

Please tell my which parts of my post were "spurious".
You sir, do not like facts and, when confronted with them chose to hide from them instead of confront them!
The part where you assume that legislators don't attend the opening session of the legislature because of bigotry. That's just a spurious argument.
Contrast it with the STAGED walkout by these to legislators. That WAS bigoted, and inappropriate. If they wanted to be appropriate, they would have stayed away altogether. That way their bigotry could have remained unnoticed.
