Subject: RE: BS: Our Attorney General
Oh yes, I almost forgot. Do I consider Christianity dangerous? Not on its face. Do I consider Fundamentalism dangerous? It can be. Do I consider those who try to impose fundamentalist religious dogma into public policy dangerous? You bet your sweet *ss I do. And I do not care whether it's fundamental Christianity, or the Taliban, or whatever.

I will not question your belief system as long as you do not try to impose your dogma on my life. That shows disrespect for my belief system. Do I make jokes about people and their foibles? Yes, I do. I will joke about the goofy things we all do, but not the way that we are created or the things that we believe. Unless those beliefs lead us to act the fool. Then all guarantees are void.
