Jesusland

Last night I got into a little argument with a couple of fundamentalist Rick Perry supporters on Twitter. I won't rehash the whole argument right now, but just say that later on it made me think of this song by Ben Folds, which I think captures the spirit of fundamentalist Christianity in America perfectly.

Town to town

broadcast to each house they drop your name

but no one knows your face,

billboards quoting things you'd never say

you hang your head and pray
