Maybe a nice religious group like "The Slaves OF God" should volunteer to 'weed wack' around all those thousands of standing crucifixes free of charge every weekend.

Just a thought.

Guess Rad gave up on trying to propound George Washington as supportive of mentioning a specific God in his speeches? Or is he digging to find any public speech where he did?? I say good luck. Just from the careful wording of his farewell speech, I'd say he was very sensitive to the varying beliefs of the people (even IF he seemed to think of religion as a tool towards keeping the peace).

???

Is Radorth admitting that he considers the Song of Solomon pornographic?

Which makes me wonder what he thinks of the story of Ham seeing Noah's "nakedness" or of Lot's daughters getting their father to make them pregnant. Does he read such stories to his kids?

Can you refute that?
I need a license to get my baby killed?

Oh wait. I know. I can't technically have a baby.

You know exactly what I'm talking about Rhea, don't you? Why waste each others time? Everybody else gets my drift I'm sure. We have a license to kill babies called Roe v. Wade. OK I'm technically a liar and you're an inane legalist. Let's call it even and try to move on now.

This will probably get deleted but that is the STUPIDEST thing I've seen all day.
