Is it possible that Senator Ted Kaufman, who was appointed to Joe Biden's vacant senate seat, is a closet atheist?
People are wondering if Kaufman's "humanist" views really mean that he doesn't believe in God.
His mother was Irish Catholic and his father, Jewish, as if this would explain it.
Is America ready for openly atheistic members of congress? Well, there already is one, Congressman Pete Stark of California, and according to the Secular Coalition of America, 22 others who would gladly give their body parts not to be identified. We suspect that no, the United States still needs to think of itself as one nation under God.
If gays are the new African-Americans, are atheists the new gays?
