The Worship of the State

[unspeakablehorror]

I think patriotism is a religion, and one that is slavishly enforced in the US regardless of what other religion or religions the people enforcing it are or are not following.  To this end, I propose that we not allow government funding of patriotic displays as a way to properly enforce the separation of church and state.

ramble-tags: which is not to minimize the many other religious issues this country has, just to say, I firmly think this qualifies as one of them
