Unbelievable. Did I wake up in Iran this morning?
Washington, DC After several weeks of preliminary preparation, the Smithsonian Institution has decided to scrap a series of exhibits that would have shown the history and culture of Atheism in the United States, after a number of organizations lashed out against their plans
and a few had even vowed violent retribution...
Kansas State legislator Tom Edison (R), who made headlines last month after pushing a State bill that would have banned the Fox television show Cosmos from airing in Kansas, was organizing a protest rally against the Smithsonian..
Liberals want us to believe that America is a secular nation, but it isnt. This is a Christian nation, and there [isn't] any denying that, Edison claimed during an interview recently on an AM radio program in his home state. Christians are persecuted every single day in this country, every time one of these atheists start flapping their gums. We cant worship in peace without some liberal atheist voicing their opinions, telling us were wrong. Thats oppressive. And we arent going to let the Smithsonian celebrate that oppression with a museum exhibition. No way.

I may self-delete this. I did self-delete it in The Other Group.
Or I may let it stand, as a reminder to myself to be more careful next time. And Google the name of the state legislator BEFORE posting the article.
