When Is A Religion Not a 'Religion'?

[PoliticalChic]

A religion is not a religion when evangelical "christians" vote overwhelmingly for the most immoral candidate for the presidency in decades and practice "prosperity" gospel. These people are immensely dumb or immensely stupid. Likely both. Voting out the morons who support this bullshit and are trying to bring it into politics should be priority #1 for patriots everywhere; this country was not founded on religion and putting religion into government goes against everything our founding fathers fought for.

"But with Paula Jones and Monica Lewinsky, we know what happened: A president being sued for sexual harassment tried to buy off a mistress-turned-potential-witness with White House favors, and then committed perjury serious enough to merit disbarment. Which also brought forward a compelling allegation from Juanita Broaddrick that the president had raped her.

The longer I spent with these old stories, the more I came back to a question: If exploiting a willing intern is a serious enough abuse of power to warrant resignation, why is obstructing justice in a sexual harassment case not serious enough to warrant impeachment? Especially when the behavior is part of a longstanding pattern that also may extend to rape? Would any feminist today hesitate to take a similar opportunity to remove a predatory studio head or C.E.O.?" Opinion | What if Ken Starr Was Right?
