For people who apparently have an entire Deity in their back pockets, they sure require a lot of constant reaffirmation about this subject, don't they?

Actually, the Urim and Thummim disapparated even before the translation was complete, leading to Joe completing the work by staring into his hat. (True story)

As told by a shiny Gold Plate. From the hills of New York. Buried in a stone box. Translated from their original "reformed Egyptian" language. Or a box of Chablis. I forget which.

Oh fer fucks sake, can't all these goddamn religious shits just lock themselves up in a church somewhere, pray to their stupid gods alone, AND LEAVE THE REST OF US IN PEACE?

(Sorry, no mood for snark.)

Being a heathen sodomite, I feel we're overlooking the important thing in this post: that Jesus in the picture is really, really hot. "Our Father" indeed!

Yep, that's right, in the time of Jefferson and Adams the word "God" had not yet been discovered, so in their ignorance the founding daddies called him the "Creator." It most certainly WAS NOT because those Deists knew the word "God" but chose to make the Declaration a secular document. And that's why they didn't put "In God We Trust" on coins until 1954. "Creator" just wouldn't fit on the dime.

<i>An atheist could never get elected dog catcher, much less president.</i>

Holy fuck! I haven't been voting in the dog catcher election.

The Repubicans have added a strict voter ID requirement for dog catcher voting. "To stop fraud," they said.

Santorum for Dog Catcher 2016!
