I'm starting to believe that I've lived long enough to have 'seen everything' :confused: :

June 21, 2004 | You probably imagine your congressman hard at work in the Capitol debating legislation, making laws -- you know, governing. But your newspaper probably didn't tell you that one night in March, members of Congress hosted a crowning ritual for an ex-convict and multibillionaire who dressed up in maroon robes and declared himself the Second Coming.

Rest of article: http://www.salon.com/news/feature/2004/06/21/moon/

You should take a few moments to read the article, as it is pretty revealing of what's going on behind our backs in Washington. If these nincompoop politicians keep hanging with inbreds like this, folks, we are in serious trouble...

Or worshipping with Billy Graham. Or thinking that Jesus wants them to be President. All of these men think they are chosen by God and have some special relationship with Him. All of these men have religious beliefs that defy rationality. And all of these men have a political constituency and cash to deliver.

And I don't say this out of a pro-Judeo-Christian bias. His beliefs may be just as sincere and no less legitimate than mainstream religion, but his practices are genuinely deranged.
