ACLU director compares mindset of Tangipahoa school prayer supporters with terrorists - “They have always crossed the line of separation of church and government… They believe they answer to a higher power, in my opinion… which is the kind of thinking you had with the people who flew airplanes in the buildings in this country and people who did that kind of thing in London.” - Joe Cook

Here's another one for the "Christians are the Taliban" file.

Rushdie bemoans role of religion in public life - “It’s a pretty bad time for us who don’t believe that superstition should rule the world... superstition needs to be pushed back in the cupboard where it belongs.”

Notice some of our own "evolutionist" promoters of Scientocracy jump at the chance to suggest that the USA should treat those who want to control their own children's education are the equivalent of mohammedan terrorists who should be hunted down and killed.

The "evolusheviks" can't stand even the idea of religious freedom.

ADL's Foxman warns of efforts to 'Christianize America' - "Foxman identified the central cause as a sense of persecution and the perception that religion, in general, and Christianity, in particular, are under attack from the liberals in the U.S." (Gee, I wonder what ever could have given us that idea?)

“What darkens things is the Christian right. They’re a contradiction to what the conservative ideology has always been about; they’re trying to impose their value system on everybody else and utilize the government to do so. They’re very similar to Wahhabism is this way.” - John Zogby

The bigotry and stereotypes directed against religious people never fails to astound me- I suggest that a lot of projection is at the heart of it.
