    Ummm A National Day of (Christian) Prayer?? “Congress passes a specific statute, a LAW?” WAIT A SECOND!!! Isn’t there something about “Separation of Church and State?”

    Now if Gov. Perry (Or Congress in 1952) was a Muslim, Buddhist, Jew, or any other religion other than Christian he and Congress would be laughed out of office. But since Perry’s a “Christian,” it’s perfect okay to do. Hmmm there’s something wrong about that kind of thinking. Something most Christian simply can’t comprehend

    @DaMirrorLink you made no sense just now….
    so you think there should be a religious test to have a position in government?
    he is paid to govern, now if he tries to enforce laws which are religiously motivated but not able to be defended on secular grounds that is different, so far he has not done that and he is free to make himself look like a arrogant bible thumper so long as he isn’t derelict in his governing duties.

    Damn, that bible-thumper looks like one hella inbred mothahfuckah. I hope he wins a Darwin Award some day. I **** the thought of him passing those genes on.

    @Dethreid where do you think the retards pay check comes from? perry and all the other crazy people need to realize that religion KILLS and that there is nothing besides reality and religion NEEDS TO BE BANNED FROM GOVERNMENT fucking stupid shitty religion.

  10. Dethreid says:

    Eh..ya they don’t have a case at all (the atheist dude) if public funds were being used I could possibly see a case of government endorsement of religion.
    Such as public funds being used to rent out a stadium or something.
    But they are not, though he does have a point that religion is used as a cover for incompetence, it has nothing to do with law.

    To say that god won the second world war for the US is stupid. Its not better then what the medieval kings of Europe said. In every little petty war between kingdoms each king would claim to have god on his side.

    Believe that Jesus died for you to be forever saved from hell and to have the free gift of eternal life.
    John 3:16.
    For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

    Silverman could’ve taken it from a different angle that may have been considered “conservative”, but is actually more libertarian. He could’ve said that just like the government has no right to use the taxpayers’ money to fund alternative sexual lifestyles with birth control and abortion against the majority’s will, they have no right to use the taxpayers’ money to fund a religious event against the will of a minority. Silverman probably believes in funding birth control and abortion however.

    @sfm073 Yes, so true. That would be like saying lets have slaves because our founding fathers supported slavery.
