2. The biggest problem I have with FBI is how discriminatory they've been
in handing out the funding. My understanding is that no money has been granted to Islamic institutions when they've applied for grants.

5. 5th rec and PROUD
I am so sick of having religion tossed at me. And what the fuck is it doing in my government??

The FFRF is a fine bunch of people.

I was thrilled when Obama gave props to 'nonbelievers' in his speech.

6. Obama very publicly PROMISED to EXPAND faith-based initiatives back in July

In light of recent negative rumblings about his use of "non-believers" in the inauguration address, I expect to hear more about this fairly soon.
