Has Anyone Ever Seen This Anywhere? Politics & Religion Comparison
As in, it isn't original work is it? A RW idiot has posted it on another forum and claims it to be his own work. He was exposed last night for plagarism (by me), and I would love nothing more than to do it again.

Any help is appreciated in finding a link.

1. Jesus would be real happy with what's been done in his name.
Naked monkeys, and not even from a pleasant family.

2. Lots of ideas are "religious beliefs" w/o being admitted as a religion.
Any belief system ie political, religious, secularism can breed fanaticism.
