I want bad people to look forward to and celebrate the day I die, because if they don't, I'm not living up to my potential.

Very nice!

What the deuce ever happened to separation of C&S anyway? I mean, our highest elected official with his hand on a bible during an oath to uphold our constitution, which explicitly says not to do such a thing? Oh well, I really like Obama, and he did mention us in his speech...

I've been wondering that myself. Hand on the bible to get sworn in as president. Hand on the bible when swearing to tell the truth in court. My question is, what would happen if you refused to put your hand on the bible in court because of your atheist beliefs? Do you think they'd let me substitute On The Origin of Species in court instead of the bible? I think not.

I'm at work so can't do YouTube (no idea what it's even about) so all I can say is Kirk would kick Picard's arse any day of the week, month, year or millennium.

Don't make Picard angry. You wouldn't like him when he's angry.

I've been to court on several occasions and they never handed me a bible.  They actually swore a group of witnesses in at once and then we signed, no bible.  I think it depends on where you are but in Bell County, Texas and Henrico County, Virginia there is no bible.  It's not like it would affect my telling the truth anyway.....but maybe it gets the Christians to behave so works for me, ha! :D
