They are ever-so sure that their god hates homosexuality and by golly, their magical book says it! One of the more amusing people being so sure that they are the only TrueChristian is Ken Ham, he of … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – Human rights and primitive religions

What the Boss Likes – Rally against the War On Women, April 28, 2012
