I’ve got news for you, crackpot. The rapture already happened and you, the self-righteous, have been left behind with us, the great unbelieving. Let that sink in.

    No, it suggests that I don’t allow assumptions to dictate my thoughts on a subject. And nothing it the comment I responded to is empirically truthful in any way.

      Bury your head in the sand if you choose. It won’t save you when they come for all of us.

          So while Johnson’s legal career reflects decades of arguing for free speech and free expression of religion, it has consistently been for the same religion — and not evidently in furtherance of an even-handed legal principle that would protect all religions equally (in addition to the right to reject religion altogether). Johnson’s theory, summed up, appears to be what might be dubbed, “the First Amendment for me but not for thee.” As he has described it in his own words, “the founders wanted to protect the church from the encroaching state, not the other way around.”

          But only when that church is Christian.

          I repeat: you are not paying attention.
