1. is this poll in response to churches giving illegal immigrants shelter?
or is this about separation as a whole including rw religious clerics?

2. Interestingly, the photo to the right of the poll is Al Sharpton (Rev. to some)
Strangely though, I can't say that I can remember any of Al Sharpton's political advocacy involving calls for the state to enforce religious doctrines.

3. Reverend to some?
For some reason Strom Thurmond always using quotation marks for MLK's title just popped into my head.

6. It probably is, and although I'm a Catholic, i don't think my church has any right sticking
it's nose in the business of secular government! They've been doing way too much of this in recent years, and I say if they continue, take their tax exempt status away!

4. This was just an excuse to bash Rev Al....
And to strike a blow in defense of Don Imus.

10. Tax the F-ing Churches!! They ARE businesses.
No one needs a church to believe in whatever you want to believe in or to be a good person. In fact, it's the people without churches who are independently moral who are the real deal.
