You are actually arguing for “establishment of religion” by a state entity? You are arguing against 200 years of legal precedence, going back to the 1st and 14th amendments?
What type of religion do you have in mind for being the official state religion? A religion that acquiesces? A religion that tacitly sits by and supports your assault on the poor, on education, on women’s rights? (Is he talking about Christianity or Islam? -ed.) […]

Screw you and your prejudice.
Screw you and your moronic arrogance.
Screw you and your bigotry.
