Truly unhinged.
Truly Anal!
Please, have this lady trot over to the Representative from Tennessee (I think it was) who compared Pilate to "governers" and Obama to Jesus, and express her rage at him for bringing religion, a private matter, onto the House floor!
No one can impose their religion on another - unless it’s Radical Islam. The funny thing is that this “intellectual” doesn’t see any hypocrisy.
And if you don’t subscribe to MY idea of what a woman should be, YOU are not a woman.
Nope, no hypocrisy here.
Yeah, now Sarah Palin isn't even a woman.
Sarah Palin has inspired more male ardor in a week and a half than a hundred Wendy Donigers. Maybe that's the real issue: Wendy and her ilk are just plain jealous.
But, of course, abortion isn’t “imposing” on a baby....

The only "religion" that is forced on people is that of leftwing secularists, in the form of climate worship, mandatory sex "education" in schools, taxpayer funded abortion, the wholesale removal of any and all Christian expression from public view, banning self-defense.... Remind me again -- who is forcing whose beliefs on whom?!?!
I agree.
So let’s get the atheist religion out of politics please....
Abortion is enshrined in the Constitution? I must have missed that part.
If my religion says that women who cavalierly condemn unborn children to death are non-persons without rights who should be stoned will she defend my right to believe and act on my personal convictions?
Didn’t think so...
Sarah Palin is a woman with conviction. She has family values that the left, left behind for power.. The country has fallen in LOVE with Sarah and the left can not comprehend that most American’s don’t want to be a socialist Nation.
Why suddenly are we overwhelmed by all these opinion page articles that read as though they were lifted straight from the pages of The Village Voice, only now they “grace” the covers and front pages of our traditionally respected publications?
Is it because it is the media itself that has gone mad and not one political party?
“people who write evil things such as this should be stoned.”
There’s a good possibility that she has spend a significant portion of her life “stoned”.

somehow I knew that I would get that very comment. :)
This person displays great ignorance of America's history and its leaders' religious beliefs and practices.
Perhaps she might visit here to hear and read the Dem's FDR, as he led Americans in prayer on that historic day in 1944.
Then, if she wished to expand the boundaries of her provincial thinking a bit further, perhaps these words might help:
"In this situation of this Assembly, groping as it were in the dark to find political truth, and scarce able to distinguish it when presented to us, how has it happened, Sir, that we have not hitherto once thought of humbly applying to the Father of lights to illuminate our understandings? In the beginning of the Contest with G. Britain, when we were sensible of danger we had daily prayer in this room for the divine protection.- Our prayers, Sir, were heard, & they were graciously answered. All of us who were engaged in the struggle must have observed frequent instances of a superintending providence in our favor. To that kind providence we owe this happy opportunity of consulting in peace on the means of establishing our future national felicity. And have we now forgotten that powerful friend? or do we imagine that we no longer need his assistance? I have lived, Sir, a long time, and the longer I live, the more convincing proofs I see of this truth- that God Governs in the affairs of men. And if a sparrow cannot fall to the ground without his notice, is it probable that an empire can rise without his aid? We have been assured, Sir, in the sacred writings, that “except the Lord build the House they labour in vain that build it.” I firmly believe this; and I also believe that without his concurring aid we shall succeed in this political building no better, than the Builders of Babel: We shall be divided by our little partial local interests; our projects will be confounded, and we ourselves shall become a reproach and bye word down to future ages. And what is worse, mankind may hereafter from this unfortunate instance, despair of establishing Governments by Human wisdom and leave it to chance, war and conquest." -----------Benjamin Franklin, at the Constitutional Convention, 1787
And, then, from that favorite of the Far Left and their minions (when they quote his "separation of church and state" phrase), Thomas Jefferson:
"I shall need the favor of the Being in whose hands we are, Who led our forefathers . . . from their native land, and planted them in a country flowing with all the necessaries and comforts of life; Who has covered our infancy with His providence, and our riper years with His wisdom and power . . . I ask you to join with me in supplication, that He will so enlighten the minds of your servants, guide their councils, and prosper their measure, that whatsoever they do shall result in your good, and shall secure to you peace, friendship, and approbation of all nations." ---Thomas Jefferson, Second Inaugural as President of the United States of America
