I feel that a secular government is the only way we can remain a civilized, industrialized nation.
Here here!!! I have no opinion on the pledge issue, but I agree whole heartedly with 2kitties on this point. I think in more ways than one we are forgetting why the first pilgrims came to this country - to get away from religious persecution. We absolutely positively MUST keep religion and politics two separate entities.

And as for Bush, I'll admit I voted for him last time, but I'm really fed up with some of the things I've been hearing about him and his "religion" lately, so it's highly unlikely that I'll be voting for him again.

Anyway, I could go on and on but I didn't mean to turn this thread into a different rant than its original intention.
