And in a related story........The Protestant Reich Church (Reichskirche) was formed by Adolf Hitler in 1933 by merging 28 regional churches into one Church. The merger was based on Nazi ideas of creating a “positive Christianity”, namely purifying Christianity of any Jewish elements, including even the Old Testament. Ludwig Müller was elected “Reich Bishop”.

There's no quicker way to eliminate faith in God than by getting government involved in it.

Which is why Bush's involvement of government in "faith-based initiatives" was one of the dumbest of his dumb ideas. It put the Fed. govt's foot in the door. Thanks a lot, Jorge.

"This new council will be made up of religious leaders across the ideaological spectrum."

Sure it will. Protestant Socialists; Catholic Socialists; Fundy Socialists; Islamic Socialists; Hindu Socialists; you name it. And there will be an out-reach program for Atheist Socialists; and another for the Homeless Socialists; and so on (don't forget the GLTB Socialists). Alright now, everyone. Unity, unity, unity. Everyone get behind this grand ecumenical concept or else the Obama Civilian National Security Force will be busting heads just as soon as they get their uniforms designed and produced. People are working on that even as we speak.
