Remember: Over there, saying that religion had any role to play in something bad is bigoted.

Does Islam have anything to do with Al Qaeda? If you answered yes, you're an bigot.
Did Christian churches push hard to pass homophobic legislation? If you answered yes, you're a bigot.
Do you think theology is a bullshit area of study? If you answered yes, you're a bigot.

and my personal favorite..

Did the Catholic hierarchy play any role in the child rape scandal? If you answered yes, you're a bigot.

Do you disagree with a statement made by someone else? If you answered yes, you're a bigot.

Some religious viruses are like the common cold, and some are like ebola. It's clear that North Carolina has one of the more virulent and deadly strains of religious virus.

Let me know how the alerts go.
