Re: Debate about Rep-Elect Keith Ellison's right to swear on the Qur'an.
Not sure what is to debate? I wouldn't swear on a book I don't take seriously or believe in. If they gave me a bible to put my hands on, my oath would be meaningless to me. It would only satisfy the hypocrites.
I can't even understand why Christianity is considered a religion or why the 'bible' has any weightiness when it is wrought with logical inconsistencies, has no textual integrity and dubious authors at best.
I have respect for a man who speaks his mind. For indeed it is a child that drivels to suck up and a man that lays it out with no cover, cowardliness or florid terms.. we only need to look to any presidential hopeful skulking up to the AIPAC to understand fully just what that drivel means.
