Do I have to listen to them pontificate before I buy a car? do I have to pay a special tax to supplement their income? I will not have the "used car salesmen" in Washington pontificate to me and demand taxes to supplement their "church goin' " supporters. Most legitimate churches WANT to be seperate from government. To quote Sr. Mary Ellen--"THE CHURCH IS NOT A DEMOCRACY!" --no divorce, no premarital sex, no capital punishment, no abortion, no homosexuals. When the homosexuals and abortionists are finally outlawed, will they go after the divorcees next? Then what? Goodbye democracy.There is nothing whatsoever democratic about religion--so why do the bible quoting, church going types take their flags to church? Why do they quote the constitution like its some kind of bible? Why do they elevate the founding fathers to the level of apostles?

No body cares what a car salman does. he represents no one but him self. our elected officials must abide by the status qou. that is the foundation of our country, the car salsman can pontificate all he wants. as long as i get my price. why do they elevate the founding fathers ... notice no body is caninising todays fathers. that's because it took some mighty big balls to do what our founding fathers did. they sure dont make em like they used to.
