By "Executive Order", George W. Bush has created a Center for Faith-Based and Community Initiatives at the Department of Homeland Security.
Think about this for a minute - within what amounts to the most augmented spy agency in the world - with powers that make the former Soviet Union's state police agency, the KGB look like small time pikers by comparison.
Remember, this is the agency charged with "securing" the United States. What the hell does religion have to do with national security? (Oh wait - I'm being rational about this)
Coming soon - The Republic of Gilead - in all it's horrorifying stupidity.
