An Atheist in Congress?
Sounds like that's the case, or someone who claims to be a "non-theist" anyway. A congressman will "out" himself as a "non-theist" on Monday.
My big question... what's Virgil Goode going to do this time? He threw a hissy fit when Keith Ellison swore in on Thomas Jefferson's Koran. And all Ellison did was pray to a different god than Goode. Goode's gonna LOVE it when a colleague of his doesn't pray to God at all.
Congress is going to get more and more diverse and, thankfully, there's nothing Virgil Goode can do to stop it. I welcome a Congress with Jews, Christians, Muslims, Atheists and, heck, anyone of any faith who can get themselves elected. I'm very interested in finding out who it is and I consider this person to be very courageous (Yes, even if its a Republican).
