Drowning Out Hateful Christian Facists

As Luce and a few hundred youth supporters rallied on the steps of City
Hall in San Francisco, behind a line of police and a row of barricades,
they were drowned out by protestors chanting, “Religion Is One Thing,
Theocracy Is Another! The Christian Right Is Wrong!” and “Battlecry Is
Based On Lies, Think For Yourself, Open Your Eyes!”
[snip]
And the aim of Luce and other Christian fascists is not just to win
converts for this but to impose it on U.S. society as a whole. A few days
after the San Francisco rally, Luce will be a featured speaker at a major
rally for Vision America, a group headed by Rev. Rick Scarborough, a close
associate of former House Speaker Tom Delay. Scarborough is the author of a
booklet titled "In Defense of…Mixing Church and State." It argues that the
belief that the Constitution provides for separation of church and state is
"a lie introduced by Satan and fostered by the courts."

.. . . You can't understand a phrase such as "Congress shall make no law
respecting an establishment of religion" by syllogistic reasoning. Words
take their meaning from social as well as textual contexts, which is why "a
page of history is worth a volume of logic." New York Trust Co. v. Eisner,
256 U.S. 345, 349, 41 S.Ct. 506, 507, 65 L.Ed. 963 (1921) (Holmes, J.).

USAF LT. COL (Ret) Buffman (Glen P. Goffin) wrote
"You pilot always into an unknown future;
facts are your only clue. Get the facts!"
That philosophy 'snipit' helped to get me, and my crew, through a good
many combat missions and far too many scary, inflight, emergencies.
It has also played a significant role in helping me to expose the
plethora of radical Christian propaganda and lies that we find at
almost every media turn.
