Really? You honestly haven't heard that? I've heard it many times, especially when I lived in California. Sometimes, if Atheists or Agnostics are bothered by the outcome of some morally significant legislation, they pull the "separation" doctrine out like it has some type of relevance. I'm too lazy to find a source, but I promise that I'm not making this stuff up.

I am very much in support of people who are gay, but I am slightly sick of hearing that when people make voting decisions based on their beliefs, they are somehow violating the "separation of church and state" doctrine.


Really, you've heard people make that argument more then once? Enough times to make you sick of it? If you can find some example that would be awesome, because it seems like a straw man to me.

The thing that upsets me most is that the majority of the congress is complicit in allowing this to pass. We have to expect this sort of thing from Bush, but why are the Democrats helping him? The law "being rushed through" isn't an excuse for it so easily passing in a democratic congress. I see it as a failure by those who voted for it and didn't understand it, and a betrayal by those those who voted for knowing it's contents.
