*This* is what's wrong:

"Evangelicals who dominate the Iowa and South Carolina nominating
contests are unlikely to back Romney or former Utah Gov. Jon Huntsman;
some call the two men's shared Mormon faith a disqualifier."

Just a sentence from an AP election 2012 roundup.

*Not* voting for someone just because he or she doesn't share your
religious beliefs seems like something more appropriate for a Muslim
country, eh?

What's wrong with America? We have lots of problems and some are
directly tied to religious fundamentalism.


Religion is for those without a brain big enough to cope with the big
picture reality.

I am not an atheist wither, I am agnostic. Man has botched the whole
meaning of god for political gain and herd control. Religion is a
weapon used to control weak minded people. The weaker the mind, the
better it works.

That being said, religion has its place if it confines its activities
and teachings towards peace, values of honor and integrity and well
behaved way of life. Religion when practiced unbiased for good reasons
adds big value to society as it presents guidance for many.

Trouble is, politics gets in like evil demon seed and the religion
becomes a farce. I don't know who orginally coined "separation of
church and state" but they were indeed brilliant.


You're not an agnostic. You're a moron.
