145. You make an interesting point about organized religion....

such as Warren's. First they will try to strip the GLBT community's claim to humanity, but what comes next? The ultimate goal for any right-wing based theocrat is to relegate all non-believers to second class citizenship. They may appear to be as altruistic as they can, but placing their following above all others is their ultimate goal and it is incredibly anti-democratic. Anyone who is truly against democracy in this way SHOULD be viewed as an enemy of democracy. We can certainly tolerate their right to free speech, but we don't have to compromise one bit.
