In today's tragic occurrance, they are showing us their religion's dance steps:

If you read the article, whether you are squeamish about the topic or not, his man obviously does not know who God is. God does not
"let" terrorists attack America, and we should not "let" them do so either.
If we do not use our military advantage to keep the peace, we will not keep our military advantage OR the peace.
We are protected from terrorism, not by oppressing folks who represent Falwell's greatest phobia, but by our nation's WILLINGNESS to do what is necessary to protect ourselves. It has never been necessary to burglarize Democratic National Headquarters, as Jerry's coalition-partner G. Gordon Liddy did. And Jerry's pet phobia is not as much of threat to America
as Jerry and G. Gordon are, since both of them
have been advocates against the Constitutional
rights of Americans.

Finally, we should hear what the peace movement has to say about the following atheist country in possession of weapons of mass destruction.
Since I am part of the peace movement, I will go first (borrowing a quote):
"I am AGAINST the death penalty, and I would like our friends, the would-be murderers, to join us in taking the first step." We should be willing to dance with them, but we should not be willing, as a country, to die for the privilege. Therefore, we will have to be ready to dispatch any dance partner who is trying to kill us, or (metaphorically) dance lovingly with any trustworthy dance partner.
