And louder voices that the media goes to for sound bites. Not the not the current talibanic group of people whose corrupt faith have drowned out the others.

As a nonbeliever in any of these myths I find it disturbing to have to live in a country that tries to put their myth on a pedestal above all others.

would start with the blatant 'truth' (e.g. what the constitution states or does not) then follow with the 'absurd opposite of the truth'. I believe that's more effective for those who won't stick with the video long enough to understand the truth.
