    no, post it. nevertheless, this is a remarkable story, it highlights just how entrenched the religious right is in the decision making process.

    I haven't read it yet, just saw it the other day while I was waiting in line to pay for groceries. I'm not surprised at all by the religious right having an influence in Texas. Just visit the state one day and you'll feel like you're in a different country. It's a disturbing place no doubt.
