Poll question: Do you sometimes wish there really was a "secular progressive" movement?
I still tend to think a lot of it is Bill O'Reilly's paranoid fantasy, because he gives the "S-P's" evil character traits that no activist I know has. (They only care about themselves, they want to ban religion, etc). Another reason I'm skeptical about its existence is that it seems to me that the progressive movement is not aggressive enough a lot of the time! But do you ever wish that there was a "secular progressive" movement as O'Reilly describes if it was the threat to the O'Reilly's "traditional" (translation: right wing) culture?

1. Why let someone like O'Liely define anything
about the progressive movement? And as for our movement being PURE and having no bigoted, self-centered goons, think again. Fortunately haven't met many - but no group has a corner on rigid traditionalists.

2. Do they eat babies?
Is there a membership fee?

Is there a secret handshake? I'd stomach a few babies if there were a secret handshake.

3. Membership is free for those who come up with an original recipe for a California cheeseburger.
