I'm more of an "E pluribus unum" guy, myself.
The one thing admirable about the mohammedans is their unwavering dedication to their beliefs. I find the beliefs themselves to be repugnant ... but then I also find the non-beliefs of atheists to be both repugnant and risible.
While I can't speak for atheists (as I'm an agnostic) I'll admit that I disagree with most of them when it comes to politics...but to characterize the assertion that the supernatural does not exist as "repugnant" strikes me as more than a bit peculiar!
Sorry for the double posts...getting all sorts of error messages when I try to reply.

But before that, I'm a
I believe in one God, the Father almighty, maker of heaven and earth, of all things visible and invisible. I believe in one Lord Jesus Christ, the Only Begotten Son of God, born of the Father before all ages. God from God, Light from Light, true God from true God, begotten, not made, consubstantial with the Father; Through him all things were made. For us men and for our salvation he came down from heaven, and by the Holy Spirit was incarnate of the Virgin Mary, and became man. For our sake he was crucified under Pontius Pilate, he suffered death and was buried, and rose again on the third day in accordance with the Scriptures. He ascended into heaven and is seated at the right hand of the Father. He will come again in glory to judge the living and the dead and his kingdom will have no end. I believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord, the giver of life, who proceeds from the Father and the Son, who with the Father and the Son is adored and glorified, who has spoken through the prophets. I believe in one, holy, catholic, and apostolic Church. I confess one baptism for the forgiveness of sins and I look forward to the resurrection of the dead and the life of the world to come.
