Democrats can be crazy religious nuts too

Rob Sherman is an atheist who fights to keep Church and State separate. Last week he was appearing before the Illinois General Assembly, the state's version of Congress, to discuss a $1 million grant the governor had given to a Church via a secular school. I don't know enough about this grant business to have an opinion on it one way or the other. But I most certainly have an opinion on the crazy shit Democrat state Representative Monique Davis said:

This is the Land of Lincoln where people believe in God, where people believe in protecting their children.... What you have to spew and spread is extremely dangerous, it's dangerous.... And it's dangerous for our children to even know that your philosophy exists.... You believe in destroying what this state was built upon

That's right. Representative Davis apparently thinks that the children will have their little religious minds blown just to even know that there are other folks who don't believe in God. Is your own belief system so shaky, Ms. Davis, that you can't accept any alternative beliefs (or lack thereof)? I mean -- atheism is going to destroy Illinois? Really? Well, shit -- I guess I better get over to Chicago for one last good deep dish before it all goes to pot.
