Reply #84: Thank you

I'd say that you, indeed, understood exactly what I intended.

BTW, former Canadian Prime Minister Kim Cambell has said some refreshing things on this topic in her occasional appearances on Maher's "Real Time":

CAMPBELL: You know, I don't think in Canada you could be prime minister if you were ever quoted as saying that you thought God wanted you to run, and you thought the jury was still out on evolution.

CAMPBELL : I think when we face radicals who actually don't accept the rules and don't accept the historical consensus of the separation of church and state, who have no respect for the notion of what science is, all of these kinds of things, it is so mind-boggling that people are kind of paralyzed. They don't know what to do. And so they keep thinking, “Oh, it's just a marginal thing; they aren't really this focused at changing things.” And yet they are.

Here, though, it's "Thank you Religious Right, please beat me over the head again with your unsatisfiable (especially by Democrats) demands for fealty. We love baby Jesus almost as much as the Republicans do, so please let us almost win your votes."
