    I have yet to hear a convincing argument as to why any particular sect's religious convictions should be enforced on anyone who doesn't consent. Why megachurches think they should be able to dictate morality to the rest of the universe will forever be beyond me. As far as I can tell, they're a God damned plague–and I mean that quite literally.

    Matthew 6:5-6, KJV:

    5 And when thou prayest, thou shalt not be as the hypocrites are: for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and in the corners of the streets, that they may be seen of men. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward.

    6 But thou, when thou prayest, enter into thy closet, and when thou hast shut thy door, pray to thy Father which is in secret; and thy Father which seeth in secret shall reward thee openly.
