go to the website and roll your mouse over the people for his fascinating explanations of who they are. 'Immigrant' on the steps at bottom left is my favorite. Also 'Supreme Court Lawyer'

College student: He is holding some books under his arm. This book on the top is I believe the most important book written of why America is so great and how it has influenced the world. It’s called “The Five Thousand Year Leap” by Cleon Skousen.

My fave thusfar: Professor: "He tightly holds his \"Origin of Species\" book by Charles Darwin. This represents the liberal lefts control of our educational system. His smug expression describes the attitude of many of the educational elite. There is no room for God in education. There is contempt for any other viewpoints. Humanism dominates the educational system of America and I believe that is wrong. Notice that he is the only one sitting on the top step. He tries to place himself on an equal footing with God, but he is still nothing next to the intelligence of the Creator." ... oh this is rich ...

Barack Obama
The 44th and current President of the United States, he is the first African American to hold the office. President Obama says he is "a Christian by choice." Obama made the following comment, "you have an obligation to those who are less fortunate, although I believe you do have that obligation; not because you have a debt to all those who helped you get to where you are today, although I do believe you have that debt to pay. It's because you have an obligation to yourself. Because our individual salvation depends on collective salvation. And recognizing that my fate remain tied up with their fates, that my individual salvation is not going to come about without a collective salvation for the country." We can never be saved unless everyone is saved? I believe each of us will have to stand as individuals before God and be accountable for our own actions.
hes mad at obama for saying you have an obligation to yr fellow humans

Although, I should specify that's it's not the particular tenets of a particular theology they long for, but to be happily ensconced in a full authoritarian frudalized society, where's there's a place for everything and everything in its place.
These kinda works aren't theological in nature but psychological, in other words.

trouble is that roosters would wake everyone up, whereas chickens can be trusted to provide a more discreet, personalised waking service
