GOP's Theism: Wacked Out On Wafers

The fusion of politics and religion - from the world of Islam to the West Bank in Israel to the core of the GOP, is objectively dangerous and neurotic in our modern world. But there was a warning from within:
"When you say "radical right" today, I think of these moneymaking ventures by fellows like Pat Robertson and others who are trying to take the Republican party and make a religious organization out of it. If that ever happens, kiss politics goodbye." - Barry Goldwater in 1994
After watching CPAC this weekend, the Right are still reflexively ignoring the facts and circling their God Squad wagons to shield themselves for the obvious multi-cultural future of the US. How long can the "scared white guy, anti-science, pro-God in vengeful" schtick work?

God transcends duality. God is light and dark, male and female. God is eternal. Yet the Republicans think God is on their side? God has no side. God is in us all. It would impossible to defend such a statement. That being said, God does not exist and would surely never vote for conservatives.
