The president is subject to the same laws as I (though money and power always helps in litigation). Were you honesty unaware that the POTUS is -at the heart of it- just another citizen? What did you think happened when a president was elected, that our laws no longer applied?
Quote:The creation of any god has nothing to do with why people aren't treated with equality. That's a human endeavor...and if it were me, I wouldn't be so eager to pin that little bit of nastiness on my god. You, and people like you, are the reason that people are treated like sub-humans (which to my mind, puts you in the sub-human camp).this is circular logic
People are equal because there is no God
and there is no God because people are equal
You need to think like this; if there is a God then people are not equal
