I interviewed Q&A person for gateway today. I don't wanna share her info here without permission (like her name, picture, voice, etc) but I do wanna share some of my favorite quotes from the interview.
"Well you can’t have freedom of religion without
freedom from religion. The whole thing, the whole idea behind the separation of
church and state and all that is that people get to believe and live their
lives the way they want to no matter what anybody else thinks."
"And it’s not that I want to take religion away
from anyone – it's that, you know, if you want to believe that, fine, but don’t
come and shove it down my throat, just because, you know, it’s rude."
"You know, as far as, you know, Islam, and all that, you
know, there’s crazies in every population, it doesn’t matter what you call
yourself. I don’t think they’re any different than the Christians in this
country. Fundamentalists are fundamentalists and to me they’re just people."
"The fifties and sixties, that's when they got their momentum. It was to fight this evil machine out there
taking our children and making them smoke dope and sleep around..."
"There’s good that
can come out of anything. You can always find some sort of
good in whatever you’re looking at. It’s just how you want to see it."
"Jefferson went through the Bible and actually took out
everything that was super natural and just left the reality stuff. It ended up
about this thick." (Note: This is an audio interview.)
