I wish everyone would stop calling me a moron and a bigot. There is a lot of anti-penguin prejudice going on here. All I said was that religious practice and the belief in a superior being defies rationality. I am neither papist nor Iranian. I am a British penguin and our head of state, Liz Windsor, has been chosen by God to govern us, evidently; although I think this is not quite so readily believed nowadays.

I must admit, I don't follow American politics that closely, but I understand that a lot of fundamentalist christians believe in the existance of the State of Israel as a prerequisite for the coming of the Lord. On the other hand, they also believe that unless Jews accept that Christ died on the cross for their sins, they will go straight to hell. So they are both pro-Israel and anti-semitic at the same time. Christians: Doncha just love 'em?
