Ethics

Ridiculously Exaggerated Rhetoric

By Ed Brayton

From our old friend Pat Boone:

As Washington-based Citizens United and other conservative organizations keep alerting any who will listen, ultraliberal forces like the ACLU, People for the "American Way" and various atheist groups constantly invade the courts in their determination to remove any and all mention of God or Scripture from society.

We've gone from wanting to remove God from the "public square" to just wanting to remove any mention of God from society. Again I ask: do these people just not care at all whether their statements are even vaguely related to reality? Or are they willing to tell any lie, no matter how ridiculous, that serves their agenda?
