No worries, I think this story is worthy of repeating anyway IMHO.

@irascible well perhaps that day may come around soon since.
We have Penny Wong, a Lesbian and of Asian extraction in Parliament plus a few Openly Gay Ministers on both sides of the floor as well.

I honestly believe there have been far more Atheists seated in all branches, but Won't 'come out' because they usually just won't get elected.

That's what I meant about baby steps, I'm sure that they will dealing with the GOP up their ass the whole time in office.
But I do think, albeit just an opinion, what those that have so to speak "came out", are paving the path for others to do the same.
