"formerly served as associate editor of The New York Sun"

What is up with that? The Sun is endevouring to be NY's conservative non-tabloid paper.

I'm confused!

Lotta "formerly" this and "has done" thats in his bio. I think reading between the lines spells out "unemployed."

Mullahs of the religious right? If the writer is so stupid that he can't tell the difference, I can't bother to read any further.

Hate, hate, hate, hate. That's all these people can spew. They hate God, they hate freedom, they hate anyone who disagrees eith them, they hate the Declaration of Independence, they hate babies, they hate REAL liberal education, they hate this country. The true religiously intolerant people are the far left wackos who censor and insult anyone who disagrees with their worldview.

Guess what, they lost, they're the minority, they have no ideas for making this country better, they are the enemies of America. They have nothing in their hearts except for the same old tired slogans and hate for the majority of wise people who saw through their lies and intolerence. They are bigots of the highest order. Go cry somewhere else, I'm not listening.

Consider the following events, all of which have taken place since Election Day.

  • The ACLU used the power of the state, as manifested by the courts, to force the Pentagon to withdraw sponsorship from Boy Scout troops across the country, on the grounds that the Scouts violate the established religion of the state, which is secularism.
  • A teacher in California was forbidden to teach students about the Declaration of Independence, on the grounds that it violates the established religion of the state, which is secularism.

Posting an opinion on a web site qualifies as an event in this jokers world. The libs are still in denial that they got their ears pinned back Nov. 3.

America in the age of the mullahs has strayed a long way indeed from Kennedy's wise words.

Kennedy was a tax cutter as well. The left never recognizes JFK's conservative side.

"America in the age of the mullahs has strayed a long way indeed from Kennedy's wise words."

Just a note: Kennedy said his "wise words" during a campaign where one of his biggest stumbling blocks was that the non-Catholic public was fearful of him becoming president. Rumor was that he would just be a figurehead for the Vatican. Kennedy was trying to dispel that feeling and get himself elected.

Possibly a "mistake, there's a Black Newspaper called

The City Sun

The City Sun Publishing Co., Inc., GPO 560, Brooklyn, NY, 11202; 718-624-5959.

Which was pretty hard core left wing,although he might have left the NY Sun when it started to swing right.

Of the four words he used to describe the US, only one - "constitutional" - has any validity in describing our system. While our founders did adopt democratic forms, they certainly were not concerned with being "modern" or "secular". Forget about erosion, how about obliteration?

I agree that these two occurances are examples that should not occur, but your using secularism as a religion is I hope sarcasm. The belief in something that calls for the ouster of religion in civic matters or the holding of a philosophical view to exclude religion, would only oddly be held to be a religion.

Ok I think I get it. Its ok for them to force their twisted perverted silly ideals on us but we better not try to mention God. Wayyyyy to dangerous. They have never really explained how God is a danger to people. Its strange, too, cause He created the very people who hate Him.

Can we stop the idea that it is somehow a religious values clash that divides.

It is socialism, pure and simple, that is causing the rift.

I dispise the socialist agenda. In fact, I don't need religious polemics to argue against the socialists, and that is what the democrats are: SOCIALISTS.
We are fighting socialism and its ilk.

Time to diffuse the left's playbook because while they can and will make a mockery of religion and religious people, and hide behind this cloak of obfuscation, we need to make them understand that the jig's up. The real agenda is out there.

I met my cousins lesbian "partner" yesterday at thanksgiving dinner. They seemed a little concerned about being in the same room with such a dangerous "right winger" as myself. I like to think that I planted a small seed of reality in their heads.

They didn't find the raging homophobe gay basher they obviously expected. What the found was a rational person with a different opinion.

Marxists who have killed hundreds of millions and 40 million + US preborn citizens
Use the BIG Lie of 'Moral Equivalence" between Evangelical Christians and the Spiritual Father's of World Terrorism...

When the Marxists take over ...death and torture and slavery are abundant...a way of control
and any one and everyone is suspect and for the wrong word the wrong look are whisked away in the middle of the night never to be heard from again...a brief lie in the state controlled news and all the victims property seized by the state or given to up and coming cronies...

The worst enemies of Marx are Christian Evangelicals and the Marxist's latest tools are the Muslim terrorists..and the mullahs..and the perverts of American education, news, law and entertainment..

imo

Secular Humanism IS a religion, complete with the sacraments of homosexuality, depravity, hubris, indolence and, of course, abortion. (I may have left a few out.)

you can call it whatever you like, that doesn't make it true. We are just as guilty of bastardizing the language as the left when we do this.
