With or without religion, you would have good people doing good things and evil people doing evil things. But for good people to do evil things, that takes religion.

How is that not democracy working? It was a popular democratic uprising against the establishment. It worked in a whole lot of places. However a lot of people disagreed that the Tea Party had good ideas, so it didn't work everywhere.If there is no sound in space, how come you can hear the lasers?

Grass roots movements don't get pumped 24/7 by a political party's official propaganda outlets for months before they even exist nor do they get primarially paid for by political groups & their donors. Or do you think those free buses to get to tea bagger events, those free coffee & donuts, the free signs, the paid speaking gigs by said political hacks, the political groups to pay for the event licenses to get filed, and the endless stream of pre-paid propaganda and advertising all magically appeared on their own? What a joke; it's proof this country is controlled by an oligarchy.A lot of Republicans are not racist, but a lot of racists are Republican.
