Alabama, land of RIGHTeousness

I've mentioned cases like this in previous journal entries, but I'm hugely opposed to ANY religious artifacts being on display at a government institution, building, assembly, or what have you. I'm all for separation of church and state, and I believe there is no place for religion in government. Alabama, of course, is no exception. Listening to Roy Moore speak is like listening to the Segregationist Gov. Wallace speak in the school door. I can just hear him saying "10 commandments in the rotunda now, tomorrow, and forever!"

Hey Moore, my girlfriend tells me that the Bible says you should kill anyone who works on the Sabbath. Why isn't this allowed in the constitution, or in Alabama state laws? Why are you a judge? I thought that was forbidden in one of the 10 commandments. Aren't there other rules in the Bible you should be following?

So I'm ranting, but really, this right-wing bullshit has got to stop, or I think I'll seriously consider moving to a place where society progresses, not regresses.

Here's another interesting opinion, from Slate.

I welcome discussion on this, pro or con, flamebait, or not.
