List of current United States Senators

This page lists the current US Senators in a table. The list includes name, party, term details and so on as one would expect. But the list also prominently includes Religion???

So we learn that one Senator is a Presbyterian, one a Methodist, a few are Mormons etc etc.

Since when were US politicians prominently defined by their views of the Spirit World?

For over 200 years. Not a pretty sight. You must have missed the last 4 years of "Obama's a Muslim!" nonsense and the JFK 1960 election, where a large % of Americans voted for Sweaty Dick because JFK was an agent of Rome.

You don't see outed atheists/agnostics ever try to run for higher office in any except the most hippy districts. This has been getting worse since Ronnie "Bonzo" Reagan was elected in the great 1980 Hippie Backlash.

Mormons? Wonderful people. Their god help them when the whisper campaigners, tired of the Obama Muslim bit, turn around on their own during Republican primaries and snipe at Mitt's church being based on Jesus visiting Native American Indians on the down low, and Sneaky Joe Smith playing hide the tablets when it came time for sunday school show and tell. At least Moses stormed down the mountain and let his freak flag fly in front of the entire tribe.

Still waiting for 1st Scientologist to run for Sen/Prez. Cirt will blow his last functioning brain cell. Or even an muslim candidate. Although Palin Junior said she dabbled in Wiccanry in those naughty 90's....
