Keep in mind I didn't say (or even hint) that all southerners are religious fanatics. But those in favor of a 10 year prison sentence for a kid who had oral sex with his consenting girlfriend -- yes, they definately are religious fanatics.

You lumped all southern elected officals into one group (or at least, all Georgian).
I also find it interesting that this is a clear case of religious fanaticism - that's what I meant by saying you're being racist. You clearly implied that northerners wouldn't have such a law - because they're not religious fanatics. I'm sure the Shakers, Quakers, etc would be amused...
