Barr is a POS lapdog.
Always love to see the Constitution quoted: if one loves freedom, one should know it better than one’s own dick.Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.
Congress does not own this site and offers no guidance as to content.

Depends frankly on what we mean by religion: if the Roman church is the standard, then I think the harm of religion far outweighs any putative benefit to the individual or to society...and honestly, after 2000 years of hegemony, we have barely begun to see outside that box, and one of the effects has been the loss of much real knowledge about other religious contexts explicitly thanks to Christianity specifically.Religion - VERY touchy subject - has led to many wars - because one side calls the other side un-believers - or disbelievers - or heretics - or Kafir's - or a whole swath of other nasty names - which all inevitably ends up in fights, then battles - then wars -
The question is - does all this religion actually do humanity more good than harm - or more harm than good?
Gee, too bad there isn’t some way kids could learn about the American Experiment, and how our government is supposed to work and not work, and how to know when we’re doing it right, so they don’t grow up to be gullible and stupid and help assholes take overThe first amendment applies everywhere. Even here.It just doesn’t guarantee publication and only pertains to actions of our own (U.S.) government.
Barr is a POS lapdog.
I can only imagine what you will think of him a day or two from now

what we add to religion is evil. It’s incapable on its own.
Pretty sure the Serbian nationalists, turn-of-the-20th anarchists, and the good ol’ IRA all beat them to the punch, since there were no Israelis back then.Israelis were the original bombers.Zionist liberation army.

Wasn't it JFK who was trying to stop Israel's nuclear weapons development - back in the early 60's? - Nuclear Proliferation they called it - Some say that may have been a reason he was taken out - so many theories -
I had the privilege of working with a couple Israeli architects a few years back. Three actually.Two women, the third a guy had immigrated to Israel from Iraq. All Jewish, the two women were Jewish atheists. We were doing an “earthworks” project. McCain supporters. They told me Iran wanted to destroy them. I considered them friends.Pretty sure the Serbian nationalists, turn-of-the-20th anarchists, and the good ol’ IRA all beat them to the punch, since there were no Israelis back then.
I have no love for Israel, due entirely to their treatment of the Palestinians from the very beginning; not down with the matter-of-fact dissing of Jews as Jews - any more than I am with the same sort of casual contempt for government as government or religion as religion. Again: ancient whipping-boy status is not self-justifying; ignoring the centuries of pure profit based on the exploitation of whipping-boy populations does not justify whipping-boy status.
Worth reminding ourselves that slavery was all about the justification of whipping-boy status, and is still raised by Cliven Bundy and his ilk as being in fact self-justifying.
The really dirty little secret about all this is that our entire economic world requires an un(der)paid servant population to work, whether they are ‘employees’, indentured, owned outright, or simply captured. This is the basis of our problems here and sound the world.
We are simply not capable of running the modern world as we do and even DENTING income equality. We need a serious rethink.
