A school in Wisconsin was recently told that they could not have their graduations in the church they'd been having them at because it was obvious violation of the Separation of Church and State.
Republican candidate for the Colorado General Assembly, Gordon Klingenschmitt, had an interesting response to this.
I'll leave the correcting of his errors to Hemant Mehta, who's already covered it better than I could, because I have a different response.
Challenge accepted.
I welcome Mr Klingenschmitt to come to Nebraska and perform whatever exorcism he likes (within legal & medical limits, of course) on me. We can record the process if he wants. I will go to any venue within 50 miles of Omaha, Nebraska for the event. If he's any good at it, he should be guaranteed to leave the event fully satisfied that any demons currently in me have left.
While, I'm obviously comfortable enough inside a church to attend services occasionally, I am regularly offended by things I see there, and I do have my own fights on Separation of Church and State. I challenge Klingenschmitt to come to Omaha and perform an exorcism on me.
If he has any faith his ability to exorcise demons, or in his god, he should have nothing, including failure, to fear. Or is he afraid that I'll still be an atheist/secular activist after he gets the demons out of me?

If the atheist complainer is so uncomfortable when they walk into a church that there's something inside of them squirming and making them feel these feelings of hatred toward the cross of Jesus Christ, don't you think it's something inside of the atheist complainer that's wrong?I have a solution. Let's do an exorcism and cast the Devil out of them and then they'll feel comfortable when they walk into church.
