Was just listening to this story on Kojo Nnamdi (local NPR show in the DMV) and two things to note:

I would just like to use this opportunity to mention that the very same people who trying to pass laws banning the supposed threat of Sharia Law, are also trying to force "Christian Law" into actual law..... Because in America you are free to practice your religion as long as it's Christianity, you are free to carry a…

No, they're just not going to label the time off of school that the students receive for Christmas/Yum Kippur as "Christmas Vacation" or "Yum Kippur Observances". They're just going to be, "HEY!

Shocking that a humble, solid major league pitcher could intelligently design himself into a loudmouthed douche with no financial acumen.

Keith Law has joined the fun.

Whether or not a specific "God" exists has major implications in the world. See 9/11; See also War on Terror; Crusades; etc

because he's wrong?

When you make the Pope look like an anarchist revolutionary, it's time for a reality check.

So let me get this straight. These people don't believe in evolution because it doesn't work like it does on the Pokemon cartoon?

I did once see a workhorse evolved into a jackass.
