Many members of the Republican state legislator of Tennessee, never having heard of the separation of church and state, or not having enough schooling to read the Constitution, have advanced a bill to make the Bible the official state book.Since the House of Representatives is Republican-controlled this kind of insanity is hard to avoid. Naturally these zealots are not concerned that this offends all non-Christian religions, not to mention atheists, and even true Christians who avoid this kind of evangelical madness. In fairness the Attorney General said it would be unconstitutional, and Republican Governor Bill Haslam has called it disrespectful. But when you have a majority of 55 rigid, unChristian, narrow-minded, fundamentalist bigots who haven't a clue what reasonable thinking involves, then absurdities like this happen. States like Tennessee, Kentucky, Arkansas, and Indiana will all be so much better off in the future when all these mostly elderly crackers have died off.Oops. Did I choose the wrong photo? These fantatical groups are all so much alike.
