Fundies lie?

Since this systematic approach to remove every mention of God from our schools we have seen, according to the CDC out of Atlanta, teenage pregnancy, abortion, unwed motherhood, drug abuse, rape and violence exploded in our schools. We have also seen Columbine High School, Jonesboro Ark., Pearl, Miss., and Paducah, Ky., and the list goes on.
Didn't all this seem to start right after we added "Under God" to the Pledge and made "In God We Trust" our national motto?

At a guess, someone who has their head up their ass. They're wearing their ass for a hat... hence, asshat.

I like it.
