Slowly, with agonizing deliberation and halting steps, the US is being pulled out of the shadows of bigotry.

Or maybe not.

My feelings about America can be summed up in this one article and the comments posted about it: a wellspring of pride followed by crushing embarrassment.  Reading some of those responses solidifies my views that religion is a poison that rots from within, causing blind, unthinking adherence to primitive dogma and poor grammar.

A victory, yes, but the struggle continues.
