Case to Watch

I don't see America as being Christian, although I know a lot of people do. I also think that according to what the judge was saying about being a Muslim it is much more than a religion it is a cultural identity.

Yes, people do try to get others to change, but I really think that it mostly happens within the context of our social norms and cultural identity.

I think zealous fundamentalists, regardless of what god they pretend exists, are all pretty much the same once you unwrap them.

To me the scarey part is that instead of defending the zombies right to free speech Christian fundies may realize that common ground with Muslim fundies and start working together to further special exemptions for religious over secular society.
