    Apparently, in one North Carolina town, a few people haven't
    progressed past the 10th century.

    Atheist city councilman in NC challenged by foes citing outdated
    clause of state Constitution

    RALEIGH, N.C. (AP) -- Asheville City Councilman Cecil Bothwell
    believes in ending the death penalty, conserving water and reforming RS>government -- but he doesn't believe in God. His political opponents
    say that's a sin that makes him unworthy of serving in office, and RS>they've got the North Carolina Constitution on their side.

    Aren't these the same bigots that accused the a bunch of white kids for
    raping a black girl before all of the evidence was in ? How did that
    work out for them ? Odd post title that you chose for town of left
    leaning bigots, especially for the point you were trying to make.

    If you mean the Duke university mess, I noticed you left out the outcome.

    Accused college kids exonerated.

    Grandstanding DA out of a job, and disbarred.

    Accuser is currently in jail on prostitution and drug charges.

    And it isn't "left-leaning" people who want to throw this councilman out of office, it's right-wingers with their "Christian only" mentality.

    Which, in your opinion, is the MOST amusing aspect of this thread?

    -- you thinking that there are "right wingers" in Asheville, NC

    -- you thinking that the guy trying to get the mayor thrown out is a "right winger"

    -- you thinking that Duke is in Asheville

    -- or just the general fact that you cannot define "right winger"

    All of this only happened after the media and others kept the pressure
    on. I recall you immediately siding with the accuser.

    You are right, I need to change it. It should read:
