Didn’t people hear this same line from Joe Stalin, Mao, and Hitler, the most prolific mass murderers in human history? Gee, since Roman times the people have been fed the pablum of worship the almighty government; we are the enemy of life.

Where as worshipping the State, and the people who run it, creats ...
Worshipping liberalism creates scary people: Hillary, Ted the Swimmer, Boxer, Biden, Barney Frank, etc etc etc
Why is it that the media (newspapers,TV, radio, journalists of all persuasions) are taken at their word when they are only agent provocatuers? They have no allegiance save their next paycheck. They have no beliefs, no fear and no common sense. They have no professional or personal authority. Television is the reason they have so much power - we are all brainwashed by watching the default mass media programming on free tv.
So the network that featured Eson Jordan claiming that he had proof that 12 journalists were targeted by US Soldiers for death is now to be trusted in framing any debate on values?
Who still watches CNN aynway Iwannajihad and guys with patches on the arms of their Tweed Jackets?
She needs to stop and ask herself, if she got lost in an inner city neighborhood at night and saw a group of young men walking in her direction, would she breathe easier seeing them carrying Bibles, or bats and knives?

There's some on this forum who really honestly believe that the right wing religious types want to impose a theocracy on the US, halt all *scientific progress* and research and take us back to the Dark Ages. Yet they don't have any qualms about imposing their worldview on us. It sounds just like this.
This is why some, seemingly intelligent, people fear George W. Bush. They were just SURE he was going to create a Theocracy! These kinds of folks are suspicious of anyone who mentions religion in public. Stephen Carter from Harvard wrote a book about that; folks just get nervous when other start talking about religion outside of Church. They distrust folks they consider overly religious, cause they think they're being proselytized.
A friend of our #1 son said once that he was worried about President Bush pushing his own religion on the country, thus forming a Theocracy. I asked him where he was getting this idea; what kinds of publications did he read? He mentioned "The Guardian", and I told him he needed to broaden his mind and read other publications that might present a different point of view. Heck even I read the New York Times and the Washington Post from time to time!
You can't say the same about your Muslim neighbors who go off to Allah camp.

And, don't forget sameful trashing those same ones heaped, ad nauseum, on Romney and the Mormon Church on this forum just a couple of weeks ago.
I advise everyone to know where the mosque/Islamic center nearest to their home is, and to keep an eye on it. (Just look — do not trespass or harass the people there.) If the government won’t acknowledge the danger, it’s up to us to do so.
It’s a shame that CNN is a willing mouthpiece for Amanpour’s hate of religion and those who follow it. She ignores the atheist dictators of recent years and throughout history who murder in much greater numbers in the name of good of the state. Not to mention the gullible who will reject faith based on her biases.
