Primitive Religions

News reached us this morning that the Taliban in Afghanistan has stoned to death a young couple accused of adultery (it's unclear what "adultery" means to people suffering from religious mania). President Obama is under attack by the Stupid Party for his support of religious tolerance. And a three-bigot federal appeals court has blocked same-sex marriages in California, although they are legal in Canada, Massachusetts, Iowa, Connecticut, Vermont, New Hampshire and Washington, D.C.
