Having a Hindu chaplain give a routine invocation in the United States Senate turns out to be one of the more traumatic things that's happened to American fundamentalists of late. From the perennially outraged and aggressively creepy American Family Association, via John at AMERICAblog:
"In Hindu, you have not one God, but many, many, many, many, many gods," [David Barton] explains. "And certainly that was never in the minds of those who did the Constitution, did the Declaration [of Independence] when they talked about Creator -- that's not one that fits here because we don't know which creator we're talking about within the Hindu religion."
Hmm...
But it does me no injury for my neighbor to say there are twenty gods or no god. It neither picks my pocket nor breaks my leg.
-- Thomas Jefferson, 1782
Dumbasses. I guess they're going to have to boycott Jefferson now.
