Citizen question:
What were or are the several religions that you are founder of?

In order to dramatize the right to the personal
pursuit of happiness that I believe is what the 9th Amendment is all about,
I have formed several churches so people could refer to their pursuit of
happiness as a religious exercise, and then use the First Amendment.
For smokers, The Church of the Tobacco God;
For gamblers, The Church of the Goddess of Chance;
For gays and lesbians, The Same Sex Church;
For nudists, The Church of the Wholly Nudity;
For stoners, The Church of the Hemp Goddess;
For boozers, The Church of the Alcohol Goddess;
For pornography and adult entertainment (yes, including prostitution), The
Church of the Sex Goddess;
For everyone else, The Church of Free Agency, where anything consenting
adults choose that does no harm is their religion.
Membership is open to anyone who claims membership. For anyone who
desires the service, I will testify in court that they are members in good
standing of whichever church applies to the harmless activity for which they
are being prosecuted. It's time to put our inalienable right to the harmless
pursuit of happiness back in our Constitution.

Lately, I've been making several converts a day. Oh
yes, I am winning. I am winning big. I may not be your next Governor, but
I'm turning the lights on, one mind at a time.
