    I got into a little tussle with a bible thumping friend of mine over this today. He just couldnt get his head around the fact that social conservatives want a stronger, more authoritarian police state like govt than even the most liberal liberals. They really do want full control over who you love, how you love, and what you do with your body.

    The Georgia State Constitution says so. Leave the Bible out of it.

    Actually, voters had to pass the constitutional amendment. I don't recall anything being on the ballot asking what religious affiliation a person was.

    Democrats want your wallet, republicans want your bedroom.... it's easier to lock your bedroom door than it is to keep them out of your wallet, and like anyone else who tries to steal your wallet, they would also prefer you didnt have a gun.
