i guess i don't see why having an open disdain for the religious right is the right prescription for the Republicans. all too often it seems that anyone who is open about their faith is somehow demonized. i just don't get why that is.

it's not that others have issue with their faith. it's when it impacts policy making that i think some take an issue-stem cell research for example. or teaching evolution in school-we can't teach science in science class, it might confuse junior.
then there's the crackpot comments such as when katrina hit, and some said it was because of the sin down there.
when huck was governor here, he took offense when the tornado hit arkadelphia and did a LOT of damage. why was he offended? he didn't like that being referred to as an act of god. his god you see is one of love, etc. of course, he still doesn't want to include homosexuals as being beloved by their creator....
