Here's a shocking thought:
madpriest's thought for the day
If 53% of Californians were either Jewish or Muslim you could end up with a Prop 8 situation where every man, no matter what his age or beliefs, could be forced to undergo circumcision. I may be wrong but I don't think even the Iranian government insists on that from its few non-Muslim citizens. This means that the majority of Californians have a less enlightened attitude towards personal rights and freedom than those peoples their previous government regarded as barbaric.
Comment: Actually it would be 51%--truly frightening.
If you've been locked away from all news sources since November 2008, Proposition 8 in California took away equal marriage rights for LGBT people. It is now being settled by the Supreme Court of California, and we will learn more in two to three months about their ruling.
