Now, I know he's hella smart. I feel sorry for gay believers, who are rejected by religions institutions. It has to suck to want to belong to a group that preaches unconditional love and acceptance from Jesus, for everybody BUT you. How nice to be free of that burden of constant rejection. Be free from true discrimination. You go, Barney.

It really does make my day when atheists step forward. I despise the idea that we should be ashamed of our non-belief.

I suspect it would've been difficult (if not impossible) for him to get elected had voters known, what with atheists being seen as less trustworthy than rapists and all.
