What his brother was SAYING was that his brother was not religious and that the service was not so much a memorial for him as a soap box for all the bandwagoners that want to jump into the spotlight of a hero's funeral by giving a false support to a person they didn't know and spouting off their conservative, moral majority rhetoric. His POINT was that they didn't even know his brother at all or the idea of God wouldn't have entered the ceremony at all. His POINT was that he didn't like his brother being used as photo op for the supposedly patriotic that wouldn't have known his brother from Adam prior to his death being a media event. Get it, tool?
