CHURCH AND STATE

From Right Wing Watch:

Flip Benham’s group Operation Save America disrupted the services of the First Unitarian Universalist Church of New Orleans on Sunday while the congregation was honoring a member who had died. The organization framed their action as simply an effort to “present the truth of the Gospel in this synagogue of Satan” as part of their efforts “to defeat the culture of death.”

And

On the day of the protest, New Orleans Mayor Mitch Landrieu issued a certificate of recognition to Flip Benham and Operation Save America.

Textbook example of why we must have a wall of separation between church and state. The strong will dominate the weak. And the government. And then everybody. I mean, this is like something out of the lead up to the English Civil War, which is, of course, what was influencing the thinking of our founding fathers when they drafted the first amendment. Creepy stuff. And it's a damned shame so many Americans just don't know any better.

Also, Mitch Landrieu is a trashy and pandering p.o.s.
