Announcing The Truth Project: Promoting the Dissemination of the Truth about Islam.
A group of right thinking bloggers have announced the formation of The Truth Project. You can find the announcement for the blog here at Always On Watch. What is interesting in the announcement are the multitude of comments, some laudatory, some not so laudatory. Guess which ones are not laudatory, lefty's or righties? At any rate, this ought to be good reading regardless of your political POV.

Religious bondage shackles and debilitates the mind and unfits it for every noble enterprize, every expanded prospect.

From comments on this site:

JJ, I realize that SOME might have been simply deists, but the early colonists came here for religious (Christian) freedom and our Founding Fathers had many more Christians than not. I remember George Washington's time of prayer during the Revolutionary War and his taking the oath of office with his hand on a Bible, which continues to be used for that purpose to this day. (Well, I don't remember it, but I know that he did.) This country has too many ties to the Christian religion to pretend that it isn't so.
