David Schultheis worst legislator in history
How strongly can I put this? David Schultheis is a huge embarrassment to our state. His anti-hispanic, anti-government, anti-female agenda is too extreme for Colorado. And his efforts to disguise his intolerance as piety should offend the religious and non-religious alike.
Schultheis is apparently oblivious to the train wreck that is his legislative record. In fact, he seems to believe his professed religiosity in and of itself makes him a better person than his less-sanctimonious peers. Here he is speaking from the State Senate floor yesterday, quoted at Colorado Confidential:
"In order to have morals you have to have virtue, and to have virtue you have to have religion."
It's impossible to have morals without religion? Hogwash.
Schultheis' most recent abomination was the "Religious Bill of Rights" that was shelved by the State Senate yesterday. The bill was inspired by the paranoid fantasy that the 92% of Americans who believe in God are somehow being persecuted by the 8% who don't. Among other things, it would have allowed science teachers to opt out of teaching evolution and reinterpreted what Schultheis called "the misunderstanding of 'Separation of Church and State.'"
Schultheis has made a career out of hiding unchristian positions behind evangelical rhetoric. The sooner the legislature is rid of him, the better.

This article is so on. Years ago I said all of these things to Dave verbatim to his face. He left my home in a huff.
He is most certainly one of the most narrow mined individuals on the planet and as far away from being a Christian as anyone could be. This man has no love in him for anyone that does not believe as he does, and he is not smart enough to recognize any of it. He quotes the Bible as if it is the ultimate truth and is incapable of any real thinking or discernment of any kind on any subject.
I am so glad he left California where all of his foibles would affect my name. Fortunately none of my friend knows him. He is a embarrassment for sure.
I speak from first-hand knowledge,

There is no evidence that the above comment was actually written by David's brother. I am leaving it here with that caveat.
