I'm an equal opportunity religious hater. To me, they are all BS. The only redeeming quality of religion is it's ability to bring people together as a support group. Why can't we do this on our own, without mythology? Why not have non-religious holidays just because we all work so hard? Christmas

I saw an interview with Obama yesterday, in which he was asked about Palin's Russia/Alaska proximity quote from the Couric interview. His answer blew me away. He didn't comment, and instead said that "It's for the American people to form their own opinion" and that he was running against McCain,
