Briboy -- every last one of the 'moral' themes found in Christianity predates Christianity -- sneering jackasses like you not only are not the source of and have no monopoly on morality, much of what you say and do evidences a profound lack of it

its easier to believe in science and reality for non-believers... than myths, fables and farces that have been used to justify some of the most horrible historical events throughout the history of mankind...

Christian fundamentalists are suggesting gays and lesbians are to blame for Wall Street’s woes, a frequently made charge in the wake of national calamities.
In a September 25th blog post titled ‘The Nation Will Right Itself If It Fixes Sex’, Christian Civil League of Maine Executive Director Michael Heath writes that the financial crisis facing Wall Street is a symptom of America’s sinful sexual culture, including the acceptance of gay unions.

“Our crisis is a symptom, not the cause,” writes Michael Heath. “I am not saying I know whether this financial crisis is God’s judgment or not. It is not for me to know that definitively.”

Heath has a list of issues that he wants Maine’s politicians to address to get right with God and, ostensibly, financially strengthen the state in some manner.

1. Put Maine on record as being against abortion the nanosecond the Supreme Court releases the Roe shackle.
2. Defund the Family Planning Association of Maine.
3. Amend Maine’s Constitution to define Marriage.
4. Eliminate domestic partnerships and ignore pleas to create civil unions.
5. Unleash Maine’s private sector to make Maine energy independent.
6. End discrimination against private religious schools and homeschools.

If we did that in 2009 I think God would crack a smile.
