Some good stuff From Rick Perry

A) It shouldn't be nuts for an elected official to mention GOD. This country was founded on Christian principles, whether you believe in a deity or not. The values that accompany this is what made America once great. You guys (atheists, religion haters, whatever) are way too fucking sensitive on this one.
B) Reference Marlin's signature...SARCASM. Maybe she believes in Zeus too right?

Holy shit... someone actually said it!

Tong, just to play devils advocate here. You would be cool with references to Allah then?

That would be like electing a Communist in the middle of the Cold War.
Whether you accept it or not, the west and the major religions are at war with Islam. Yes, the religion itself, not merely the political aspect of it.

Sure wouldn't. Islam is a pretty drastic example to play devils advocate with. But let me give a better example. An atheist candidate, who didn't believe in God, but believed in the principles, ideals, and values this country was founded on. I wouldn't say whoaaaa this guy is way too Godless for me.

We need some values and some SPINE back in the white house. It's totally different to recommend a religion/social structure that has zero to do with the founding of this country as my post stated. I just don't want to see a guy discredited because he's too religious, when his values and ideals might be what is needed, somebody that stands by his values and ideals.

Just look at the other thread with great quotes from our forefathers that was started today.

I didn't mean to get on whoever posted that one, wasn't my intention.

Run for pres. You'd have my vote.
