You do realize that only Catholics and Jews have been appointed to the SCOTUS for decades? It's time to kick their asses to the curb.
Catholics and Jews? Oh my!

Not really, though. It is a wildly misrepresentative paraphrase, if you could even call it a paraphrase. I cannot stand Scalia as a jurist; I think he let his religion dictate his stance rather than the Constitution, which is his job.
But I wouldn't stand for someone wildly misquoting Bernie Sanders for political gain, and I don't think we should willfully do the same because we don't agree with someone's politics, even if the person is a veritable theocrat.
"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great
