Detroit Strip Clubs: Thoughts From the Interface of Science, Religion, Law and Culture

July 28, 2009 at 5:25 am | In Detroit strip clubs | No Comments

A local fundamentalist group has decided to wage war on church-state separation by posting ten billboard advertisements that send the message that “America’s government was made only for people who are moral and religious.” The billboards highlight quotes from our Founding Fathers that are misleading, false or taken out of context. For example, one of the messages attributes this quote to George Washington: “It is impossible to rightly govern the world without God and the Bible.”
Worse yet, the guy who is putting up the billboards knows this is a fake quote. And he doesn’t care.
It’s clear the truth seems to be lost on Community Issues Council (CIC), the group behind these billboards. CIC seeks to “promote and protect Judeo-Christian values” and first came onto the scene in 2005 when its members worked to shut down a strip club in Valrico, Fla.
