Love cannot exist in peace, it will always come accompanied by agonies, ecstasies, intense joys and profound sadnesses.
I choose to worship not believing in God and government should not thrust a religious idea down my throat.
I believe in the Constitution. The Constitution says that government isn't supposed to be infusing religion into our society, and so I asked to have that upheld.
Most people I know I think agree and even many theists agree with this. We don't want government involved. When atheists become the majority in this country, I don't think the theists are going to be glad to have "one nation under no God" inserted in the Pledge of Allegiance.
There's a principle here and I'm hoping the court will uphold this principle so that we can finally go back and have every American want to stand up, face the flag, place their hand over their heart and pledge to one nation, indivisible, not divided by religion, with liberty and justice for all.
A lot of God-loving people think that killing people who don't agree with them is OK.
Obviously, I'll keep fighting to uphold the Constitution.
