Blurring the line separating church and state...

Where are the laws that say how many pigs or chickens you get when you become mayor?

Crackle, you're frickin insane. SO really has you by the balls, but you won't admit that you lost...

SO - didn't know about the alternate oath, but it's a step in the right direction, and actually a point I addressed in my first post.

Well, why doesn't it have business there?

Hmm, should I say it's because religion is a concept that's hundreds of years past its usefulness? Should I argue (again) that posting the beliefs of one religion ostracizes other religions? Should I remind you that this could leave them open to litigation by some politically-correct douche?

Actually, I think I'll just say that religion always was and always will be a form of controlling the masses. Except, now we have laws for such things. You don't need to worry about punishment in some ridiculous afterlife that you invented because you're afraid of death - if the cops catch you doing something wrong, you get punished for it now..... and that's probably the reason you're going to any court anyway.

If fire and brimstone rains down on the next gay parade like Sodom and Gomorrah, I might start to believe in god. Otherwise, even if he does exist, he just doesn't care anymore. :grin2:
