You're right. Unfortunately your entire argument previous to this did nothing to prove thhis conclusion.

It's not just Americans that have to do the changing. You don't think the mindful pawns of the powerbrokers in other states need to stop preaching hate. I don't think it's a coincidence that the largest growing sectors of the fringe elements of religion come from economically poor areas and prisons.

I also don't think it's a coincidence that this thread comes on this particular anniversary...it's my generation's Kennedy Assassination
