Public Prayer in Hall County, Georgia

Yup. I can't stay away from the hypocrisy of forced prayer. Why?

No one has a right to intrude upon my faith in public or in private. No one. But, that doesn't stop the mighty Faithful from trying. In the Gainesville Times, some pious ass asserted a right to pray anywhere and any time.

Let me bash him.

There are things which shouldn't be done in public. Among these, our society includes burning a combination of paper and tobacco. That's all it takes to make a cigarette. One burns the paper and the tobacco then inhales some of the smoke before coughing it out again.

If someone wants to burn paper, let them do it in private. If they want to call tobacco incense, there's still no right to burn it in public. Is that so hard to understand? No.

In keeping with that, what about breathing. I have an absolute need to breathe. Should the state or an individual terminate breathing? No. That's not hard to understand either.

So what about emptying my bowels? I have to do that just as much as I have to breathe. Only, there are damn good reasons I don't squat at public meetings to meet my needs. That is a given.

So, people may have a right to pray just like I have a need to shit. Both those activities have a time and a place.

Back to force. Don't force your prayers on me and I won't shit in your living room.
