I thought classical music was supposed to be civilizing!



Or were they two music critics?

Cardinal Dolan Urges 'Freedom Of Religion Battle'

The church has become an organization of crybabies.



If they cannot follow our secular laws, they should get out of the hospital business unless they privatize these organizations so they get out of our health care system, period.



And I've long argued that if they want to get into politics, they should pay their fair share of taxes.



"Freedom of religion"?



No, religious license and oppression, as usual!

Santorum's College And Faith Loss Remarks Challenged By Experts

Rick is only worried that this kind of "snobby elitism" that is higher education would turn anyone against voting for him or the other cons.



All I can say, in rebuttal, is that his 3 degrees didn't do anything to cure his own ignorance!



So stop worrying Ricky!

'Jesus Discovery:' Jerusalem Archeology Reveals Birth Of Christianity

I've seen these guys' names a lot and I wouldn't trust anything that they push. It's just publicity!



Even if the tombs had not been altered which is by no means certain, the names on the Talpiot tomb, for example, were all common Maccabean names, as real scholars have pointed out.



In other words, they've got a bridge in Brooklyn to sell you!

How The 2012 Primary Has Revealed A GOP On The Verge Of Collapse

The Tea Party is probably the worst thing that has happened to the GOP.



I suspect that many of the saner party members (such as still exist!) have seen that it is headed quickly towards the cliff but they are powerless to stop it. And they won't! Not without some sort of miracle.



When you have the two leading candidates running respectively for a Trump-type CEO and Pope, it shows the desperate situation the former party of Lincoln is now in.

Richard Dawkins, Famous Atheist, Not Entirely Sure God Doesn't Exist

If you think that a guy with wings flew in to the room of a Jewish lady who was with child without benefit of a father, who didn't turn a hair but recited the Magnificat, if you believe a Jewish rabbi raised people from the dead, walked on water and was resurrected bodily and sits on the right hand of god, if you think that when you drink red wine and eat a wafer, that you are cannibalizing some son of a deity, then I think you are in denial and more than a bit strange.



Do they believe in the same trinity on an inhabited distant planet? Probably not.



Is the deity a large bearded Michelangelesk man in the sky? A nice idea but come on!



Is it something else? It's possible.

Franklin Graham Calls Obama's Religious Beliefs Into Question

Oh, here we go again! I don't care if Obama is a Christian or not because I don't consider that a prerequisi­te for being president. (Remember separation of church and state?)



As for giving Islam a "free pass", he has dealt decisively with Islamist terrorism which is all I care about. Peaceful Muslims are fine with me though I was not planning to join them or any other religion.



I'm really tired of this holy nonsense. As I've said before, if you want to believe this stuff, believe it. Just don't try to inflict it on others.
