I great literature. However, I did come close to reconsidering having the word dick in a sentence about my ass.

I seriously believe because our religious folk are a small minority, the "silent majority" are so laid back they are allowing the religious folk to literally punch above their weight politically.
For instance despite opinion polls showing a clear majority supporting the legalization of same sex marriage. Reports from federal MP's who were asked by a federal parliamentary committee to "survey" their electorate about the issue. Most federal MP's came back with reports saying their electorates overall did not support same sex marriage.
I blame that on the "silent majority" being so apathetic and the religious folk being able to punch above their weight (as I described earlier) by sending shitloads of letters to federal MP's and Senators.
Sheesh, sounds like a charlie foxtrot to me. Well, it looks like your only path to the freedom you seem to seek is pushing the buttons of the apathetic crowd. Run around spouting off how great hemp is for everything. Don't let potheads wear patchouli and bake cookies for the fence riders. Lure them over to the dark side. The most important thing is the patchouli, though. You can't get "normal" people to vote for the same things as a bunch of people that smell like sweat and pepper.
