Separation of Church & State.... Kentucky Style

Sep 08, 2009 13:42

First off, Kentucky is appealling the decision to fire Almighty God from the state's homeland security organization.

Elsewhere, a high school football coach takes some of the team out for a free steak dinner and baptism at the school superintendent's church. This is okay since it was voluntary and another coach paid for the gas for the schoolbus.

But my favorite part is... The church's pastor, the Rev. Ron Davis, said that he requires minors to obtain their parents' consent to be baptized, but he added: "Sometimes 16-year-olds look like 18 years. We did the best we could."

The "He/She looked 18!" defense is usually not a winner.
