America vs. the Christian Taliban

Here’s yet another story of Christian Fanatics in America whining and complaining that if they can’t throw Jesus in the face of anyone they choose, wherever they choose, their religious liberties are being violated. What rubbish.
In this case, a public school graduation was sermonized by a preacher who insisted that the only way to paradise was through Jesus.

Which is, of course, utter superstitious hogwash, and no more valid than a suicide bomber believing that he gets seventy virgins in paradise when he blows somebody up.

Christian Fanatics need to stop trying to turn America into their version of the Taliban and accept that their exclusive “faith” is off-putting to many of their neighbors because it is intolerant, divisive, judgmental and arrogant.

America was never supposed to be a theocracy. It was supposed to be a tolerant, plural democracy. Too bad Christian fundamentalists care more about their narrow, literal interpretation of the Bible than they do about the true spirit of America.
