Quote of the day:
"The government of the United States is not in any sense founded upon the
Christian religion" - John Adams (1735-1826)

Thought of the day:
People have accused me of being a liar when I've presented the above quote.
Really I think people are too hung up on what our "founding fathers" intended
or wanted for this nation. There is often an out cry that this nation was
founded on Christianity, which I think the above quote puts into serious
question.
But really this nation was founded with a lot of hypocrisy and bullshit to
which I would hate to be used as a standard of what this nation should be.
Really
if you use the founding fathers as an ideal, then only white males of a
certain amount of wealth and social status should have any real rights. We have
evolved so much over the years and still have far to go. Honestly when I hear
people talk about how things have gone down hill morally, I just want to ask
when
were things better? Was there a week in 1979 that I missed?
