Atheist Vs Rep. Michael Burgess

Raw Story reports:



The audience at a town hall event held by Rep. Michael Burgess (R-TX) on Thursday was none too responsive to a young atheist blogger’s questions for Burgess regarding atheist military chaplains. Video posted by Daniel Moran, who goes by the name The Barking Atheist online, shows that when he pushed Burgess on his vote for a ban on atheists from serving in those positions, members of the audience yelled, “Throw him out!” before Burgess put up his hand and asked them to stop. “I thought that was a dumb idea,” Burgess told Moran, which prompted applause from the crowd. “I’ll do it again.”
