Projection, that's what it is. Conservatism is the most godless concept on earth.

One time when I was visiting a friend at a care center, the living room was crowded with residents watching a Democratic convention opening on tv. Someone turned to me and gasped in wonder: "I didn't know Democrats prayed too!"

Well, many of us do, but not to the Dark Side. That was one of the dumbest things I ever heard anyone say, and believe me, I've heard just about everything at some time or another.
