    She absolutely rocks!

    Also, I find it interesting about the anger she experienced when asked if she was a Christian. I mean, I’m an atheist, and while I find religions kind of silly, I don’t get angry with people for believing in them. So long as they follow the law, I think it’s no problem in general for them to believe. Kind of like people who believe in UFOs, really. Yes, there are a metric ton of exceptions (like relying on faith healing), but they are for another day.

    It’s just sad at the end, though.. (paraphrased) “We’re tolerate all other beliefs and religions, but we don’t tolerate atheism”.
