Welcome to the dark ages of this country.

We're thick on self-righteousness, thin on brains. Everybody's got a moral high horse and no one's thought logically about progressing as a tolerant, malleable mass of people that a republic like ours should be. The whole idea behind this nation was tolerance, but now everybody who's tolerant is branded a moral reprobate. The guy who argues for logic over values is decried as a "moral relativist." If Franklin were alive, he'd be ill.
Sorry, when you take any text, belief or value - religious or otherwise - so seriously that it effects what you wear and causes you to get upset when others don't follow your rigid values, you are provincial.
