and? Why should they have special protection over things? Why cannot some other made up, modified over the years stories be held in such high regard?
- bcook 11y agoHate is retarded. Reason is golden. I was critcizing the hatred. The object of the hate is unimportant. Drop the emotion and share the logic. The OP's entire rant was an unfounded strawman attack on religion.
- x5n1 11y agoThere is no reason when it comes to worshiping imaginary beings or hero worshiping people like Jesus Christ. That's not the home of reason, and no my "rant" was not an unfounded straw-man attack on religion. My "rant" was a pretty well founded "rant" on the basis of God or other founding myths used to try to control people with real power.

No it wasn't. That was a side point. The main point was that the constitution isn't Gospel -- we can change it and shouldn't treat it as perfect.
