Why? I think religion is doing a fine job of phasing itself out.
Well, it's true, with all of the Xtians out there making idiots of themselves - - they are their worst enemy. (I turned on the TV to Judge Judy for a moment, to catch the end of a case: a woman had waged a smear campaign against some neighbors because they were "living in sin". JJ didn't buy her protests of ignorance, and just being a good Xtian witness, and the best part was the woman ranting and raving about how Jesus is going to come soon and smite all the unbelievers. Ha.)
But seriously, here in the US . . . we have most of the Republican candidates running on a Conservative Religious platform. Ben Carson has been saying he'll return the country to "one Nation, under GOD"; Mike Huckabee helping to get that idiot Kim Davis out of jail, Ted Cruz, Rick Santorum . . . even TRUMP has said that while she should have done her job, putting her in jail was an attack on Christianity. Conservative protestant churches across the country don't just want to abolish the separation of church and state - - they pray daily for a Theocracy, with Jesus as supreme ruler. So yeah, I'm with brian1570. Plastering our favorite memes across facebook sounds like a good idea to me. Anything to counteract the crazies.
