Colling said Ellison's office has received hundreds of "very bigoted and racist" e-mails and phone calls since Prager's column appeared. "The vast majority said, 'You should resign from office if you're not willing to use the book our country was founded on,' " Colling said.
That's right, this country was founded on genocide and slavery, both of which are definitely biblical values.

Wow, that was an interesting picture. You reminded me about the former Pope when he kissed the ground when he reached to Palestine i guess, if i'm not mistaken.

You can know about Star Wars, not believe in the force and still find much meaning from the movie, can you not?

I don’t see why.

The oath is to the One True God in which I thought we shared in. Nothing more, nothing less. If you don’t believe in God then your loyalty lies in whatever binds you. The purpose of the oath is to bind.

So if the oath is to the one true god why is it so bad to request the book that best describes how you worship that one true god to give your oath on?

I have no oppostion to that, I'm just trying to understand why such opposition was taken by the politician.
