The Onion is usually top-notch satire, with a fairly regular "lol" quotient. Seems to me that it is going off the boil a little, but still worth browsing at work (www.theonion.com)

One thing that is often overlooked by American commentators - America is not the whole world! This hand-wringing over "unbelief" - A lot of the world (Well Europe at least) has got over that already. Better look further afield before you start to look like backward hicks, if that has not happened already.

"We asked the commissioners last year to designate the area in front of the courthouse as a free speech zone"

"the UK is moving at a menacingly creeping pace towards a government that is in thrall to religion."

Is this really so? Despite Tony Blair's religious leanings, they told the Catholic church to take a hike over adoption by gays.

Yes - Be on the lookout - But in thrall of religion - I'm not sure.
