		<description>One nation under god.....IRAN!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The control of religion by the state and vice versa was the entire reason we left England. It is the very reason  the founders made the laws pretty clear on not mixing the two. Some of the founders were christians, and most of them saw those laws in their best interest. It is sad that so many Americans see this as a threat.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I think we should enact a few of the lesser known laws in the bible as law first, just to let the zealots get a little taste. I will provide a short list off the top of my head.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
1. A death sentence without trial for eating shellfish of any type. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2. A death sentence without trial for anyone who wears a cloth made of two kinds of thread. This includes cotton polyester blends. The employees of fast food restaurants should be rounded up quickly.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
3. If anyone in any town or city is thought to worship any heresy, the entire town or city should be burned, and all put to death. NO trials, the accusation alone is proof enough!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
4. As stated above every disobedient child should be stoned and the entire community(minus the women, but including the father) should be active participants. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5. Those who touch the flesh of a pig, DIE, Period, no trial, end of story.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And before a believer says that Jesus changed all that, READ THE NEW TESTAMENT. Jesus stated that not a letter of the old laws are changed. I do not know the verse, look it up yourselves. I will not do your work for you. You believe the crap, you look it up.</description>

		<description>Off Topic, but . . .&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Help me out here.  Did any other idiot besides me watch the Republican questioning last night?  Quite frankly, I felt like I should shower after it was over--all that bible, anti-abortion talk was too much to take.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
But, when Mitt Romney was asked if he believed everything in the Bible, the xian bible, he said he believed in &quot;The Bible.&quot;  I didn&#039;t think Mormons believe in &quot;the&quot; bible.  I thought they only believed in the Book of Mormon.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
What&#039;s the deal?  Can he believe in &quot;the&quot; bible?  (I&#039;m pretty sure he wouldn&#039;t just say that to get votes, right?)</description>

&quot;Do not think that I came to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I did not come to abolish but to fulfill. Matthew 5:17&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&quot;But this I admit to you, that according to the Way which they call a sect I do serve the God of our fathers, believing everything that is in accordance with the Law and that is written in the Prophets; Acts 24:14</description>

		<description>To follow up on Matthew bit:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Matthew 10:34: &quot;Do not think that I came to bring peace on the earth; I did not come to bring peace, but a sword.&quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I wonder if we will all have the right to bear swords.....</description>
