Besides 'everything about Christianity', what our resident ignoramus Gargantua doesn't seem to grasp is that America can never be a 'Christians-only nation' due to the dangers of handing over control of religion, morality, and legality to ignorant bigots like himself.

I mean, can you imagine some a$$hole like this teaching his warped version of Christianity in schools to innocent children? Or worse, being a judge in a court of law? God help us if that day ever comes...and thank God those days are long past for now.

[O]ur resident ignoramus Gargantua...

Whoa!
You may disagree with what the dude says, but why the ad hominem attack?
Chill.

A certain individual made a remark some consider intemperate. But bigoted? Not clear.

But you did say "some a$$hole like this". Given that qualification, the statement I quoted of yours appears to be way over the top.

First, are you referring to teaching within religious schools? I imagine in those schools they teach what they commonly believe. I don't happen to like something I know was being taught in a church in my town, but what else is new?

Second, I hope it is generally accepted that religiousity does not hamper the ability of a person to do any job, including that of judge. I would agree that true bigotry would be a detriment, but I do not believe that has been established in this case.
