2. They just don't get it.
Would rather spend time in their country club then out at a community picnic.

5. Anyone still wonder
why so many of us denounce the "Faith Based Initiative", and any other means by which religious institutions get government funding? Why should our tax dollars prop up these organizations which are allowed to discriminate against us?

6. I'd wondered that myself...
Why the government would give money to groups that actively discriminate against US Citizens. Apparently if you're gay/atheist/some other religion it's all OK.

7. Well, if they get federal funding they should NOT be allowed to do that.
