(I was always taught that religion is bad but that spirituality is good. This is definitely religion.) The pastor's comments about being in favor of preemptive war were chilling. What about the ten commandments they have been raising such a ruckus about? Everyting seems to be based on the most violent scriptures in both the Old and New Testaments. Culture of death is a more appropriate slogan. Justice = JustUs or JustUS.
