So, I got hold of a voter's guide passed around
my in-laws' church in Knightdale, which is a suburb of Raleigh, NC. It is, to say the least, the most biased guide ever. And why, oh why, do these churches continue to be non-taxable entities?

Anyways, you have columns with pictures of Kerry and Dumbya. Then, the questions, with the intellectual fervor of statements such as: "Who will eat your baby alive?"

Of course, the answers are twisted and skewed to make Dumbya appear like God's chosen warrior and Kerry like Satan's spawn.

These things make me sick....

1. Can't you use it to get the church in trouble?
Of course nobody in Bush's admin would care about your complaint. Forget I brought it up.

2. Hadn't you heard? Gawd speaks through George Boosh!

Or at least that's what I hear from my Baptist friends in Wake Forest...

3. Contact Americans United for the Separation of Church and State.
Get a copy to them. It might be worth their non-profit status, especially if they're using pictures.

Here's the local freethought communities in that area:

Americans United for Separation of Church and State, East Carolina Chapter: P.O. Box 1749 Kinston, NC, 28503 ici1239@mail.icomnet.com

North Carolina Society for Ethical culture
P.O. Box 3132
Chapel Hill, NC 27515-3132
919-833-0633
info@ncethicalsociety.org
www.ncethicalsociety.org

North Carolina State Chapter of American Atheists
Wayne Aiken, state director
P.O. Box 30904
Raleigh, NC 27622-0904
tel/Fax: 919-954-5956
waiken@atheists.org
www.atheists.org/nc


These organizations should take an interest in this.
