Religious Freedom Restoration Act

Indiana has taken a major step backwards because signing the "Religious Freedom Restoration Act" is no different that the "Jim Crow" laws of the South that allowed businesses to "reject black customers."

I suppose we'll start seeing signs in restaurants in Indiana, "Heterosexual Only."This law will be a bit difficult to enforce, compared to the easily enforceable immoral law of keeping black people out of public establishments.

The Arkansas House approved a religious freedom measure very similar to the one signed into law last week in Indiana that will open the door to discrimination against gays and lesbians.

The ancestors of those idiots, justified their actions in the very same way. They made horrendous, despicable decisions that adversely affected lives, based on "blind faith" and the primitive balderdash written in the Christian 'holy book' (a book that is replete with archaic fairy tales, myths, and 80 percent plagiarized from Egyptian folklore).

Who would believe the same type of "legal" discrimination would revisit us in 2015?

The common denominators between the late, George C. Wallace (45th Governor of Alabama and third longest gubernatorial tenure in post-Constitutional U.S. history, 16 years), Indiana Governor Mike Pence, and the Ku Klux Klan, are fundamentalist religious beliefs, Christianity, and the Bible.

One interesting fact about Wallace's first of four terms as Alabama Governor, in 1962, after losing his first attempt in 1958, he ran again on a platform of racial segregation and states' rights and was backed by the Ku Klux Klan.

When are we going to wake up as a society and understand that religion, specifically Christianity and Islam, are the two most divisive, malevolent, criminal forces in the history of humankind?

CNN - Mike Pence: 'Was I expecting this kind of backlash? Heavens no.'

I'll close this blog post with an excerpt from Zeitgeist:

"Christianity, along with all other theistic belief systems, is the fraud of the age. It serves to detach the species from the natural world, and likewise each other. It supports blind submission to authority."

"It reduces human responsibility to the effect that God controls everything, and in turn, awful crimes can be justified in the name of the divine pursuit."

"Most importantly, it empowers those who know the truth but use the myth to manipulate and control societies."

"The religious myth is the most powerful device ever created, and serves as the psychological soil upon which other myths can flourish."
