God-fearing homosexual vs filthy atheist Presidential deathmatch
Kos has a Gallup poll, that I heard about from CV. You can check it out at either of those sites, but the take-home message is that an atheist is only going to win a Presidential election in a three-way contest against a chicken molester and a necrophiliac, and only if neither of those makes a big deal about believing in God.
It seems a bit weird. I mean, surely anyone can see that there could be capable atheists, capable christians, etc? If you set a political stage like that, anyhow, you’re just inviting people to lie to you. It’s not as if faking religious belief is going to stretch a politician’s abilities in the field of deception.
I find myself wondering where “Muslim” would finish in that poll.

Sucks not believing in fairy tales. I guess the fact that I’m a Libertarian and an atheist means I oughta stay out of politics, eh?

If you want to win whilst telling the truth.
