Religious insitutions and people whose only purpose is to rant about this and that have the same right to say as they wish as I do.
If I am to have the right to say that religion is the worst thing to ever happen to humankind bar smallpox. Hate to say it, but organizations like the Westboro Church have the right to spew their hatred all day long as long as they don't cross the line into violence.
My point was that we have positive forces working towards the adherence to our founding documents, and I don't think the fact that the ACLU protects all free speech is a detriment to my intention.

Perhaps. That aside, the U.S. is still very lax on allowing religious doctrine to be inserted into non-religious affairs. You wouldn't see what happened in Australia happen here...at least not in the next few decades.
You really believe in a man who has helped to save the world twice, with the power to change his physical appearance? An alien who travels though time and space--in a police box?!? [Image: TARDIS.gif]
