Good Show, Good Show Far Right

If you ever need to prove you are an ignorant simpleton, just do something like Pastor Roger Byrd and put on the church street sign:
“Obama, Osama, hmm, are they brothers?”
The article points out the pastor claims to be trying to get people to think - but specifically questions Obama’s religious affiliation, and specifically implies that a Muslim would be a terrible thing for the office of the president, and the country.
Friendly Atheist made a comment on a previous article on the topic. I felt the need to comment here in a little more detail for one reason - it is a clear example that the far right is completely devoid of logic, not just when it comes to creation/evolution, but irrationality is open season for these people. I might disagree with Obama’s religious stance, but I’ll happily take him at his word rather than question his authenticity based on his name and/or skin color. This Roger Byrd character is a sad sack who should probably consider reading some of the parts of the Bible that have to do with kindness as opposed to being a shit head.
The complete lack of separation between church and state is making me sick. This separation exists mostly in name, and grudgingly, for most members of both church and government. This leads to a sad state of affairs where a person’s real, alleged or lack of religious beliefs mean more than their abilities and opinions in terms of managing affairs of state.
