184. If I want to see my president take the oath of office
I have to listen to a prayer from Rick Warren, a fundy asshole (not to bring that up again) who thinks people like me shouldn't be able to hold public office.
Want to swear on a bible? Fine. The prayer however is creepily close to government sanction of religion. I know the FFRF isn't going to win this one and that it may not be technically illegal but it rubs me the wrong way when to participate in a national function I have to be prayed at.
Even Jesus said the ones who pray on street corners for others to see already have their reward.
