Nah, they wanna take us even farther back to the likes of the Spanish Inquisition.

The Spanish Inquisition is too Catholic and Papist for the fundamentalist Protestant nutjobs here in the states.

Now, the question is, which is the "right" type of Protestant?

I hope the Catholics in the US never have to face the day that they reap what they sowed. The unholy alliance they have with the evangelicals won't last. And historically has always been the case. I hope they never experience it because I give a shit about people.

Only a secular government can have minorities, and most secular governments aren't even that good at that.

So's most of SCOTUS, but that doesn't seem to bother them as long as they get their way.

These aren't reasonable people bothered by such details as glaring hypocrisy..

At least the Spanish Inquisition stopped witch-hunts. I'm not so sure Republicans don't want to start witch-hunts themselves.
