Go found your own nation!"

Yeap, I know what you are talking about.
And I fear that situations like those will escalate.
In 10 or 15 years, atheists could be obligated to use a big "A" on our clothing. :shifty:

I am getting quite angry if i read SUBMAN's or Avon's opinions about atheism. I think Religion is the root for very much evil. See the wars that still happend today, just because of that *PC Censored* religion.

(Sorry, but you add fuel to my rant fire. The clice of the Patriotic Right-Wing Christian extremist seems to apply to more people than i originally thought. And that makes me angry.)

I think that Atheists can do very evil things, wich could be excused by a "lack of moral muck". Well, Christians have also done many evil things. It's not Christanity or Atheism. It's not morale. It's the evil that is in all of us. Many people "go bonkers" wich causes that evil to take the upper hand.

That´s very true.

I don't think so. The Pilgrims fled from religious persecution, meaning that all religions besides the official Church of England were banned and/or ostracised.

The problem in the US is the exact opposite. It lies with a group of people who for whatever reason want to twist freedom of religion into freedom from all religion which regardless of whether you think that's a good thing or not is not the same.

That is curious, I thought the point is a overwhelming majority trying to impose their way of life on the rest. ;)

A way of life dictated by superstition; if you like to live in that way, you have my endorsement, of course. ;)

But when your group is permanently trying to bend the law for their own sake... :nope::nope::nope:

Feel free to work this Christmas if you feel that way. That is if you do work.

No one is imposing anything on you as far as I can tell. At least if you live in the US that is. No one is going to do anything to make you believe anything you don't want to in this country, so why are you trying to impose your views on everyone else? That is the hypocritical bit on this thread! You my friend are very much a hypocrite.

But to each his own - If you read the book of Revelation and supporting text and truly understand it after it has predicted every major world power to date with accuracy, from Alexander the Great to the US of A, predicted the very wars going on right now, to even the wall that Isreal is even building, and still disbeleive it, then I feel sorry for you, but that is your choice. Enough said on the subject.

Need I remind you how many times it goes the other way? More often than not you might say, so I say that your Atheism is being pushed much harder than CHristians are pushing back, so who is the one pushing their agenda harder? Who are the ones that want the word go removed from anything and everything? You are creating this cartoon yourself because you are pushing your agenda on Christians and the 'only' reason you are starting to hear from them is that they are slowly starting to push back.

Welcome to your self made mess. THis is an Athiest agenda in the making, not a Christian one.

This was posted already at the start of your thread. Are you posting it because you agree or disagree with it? :hmm:

The door here swings both ways in regards to teaching only science in schools....To me a bunch of egg heads peering through a telescope into deep space trying to figure it all out and under microscopes look to me like people fumbling around in the dark.Which science freely admits..."Gaps"...well what is the difference in Intelligent Design being taught in school?...there is no difference.Both appear to have gaps yet each side will cling to it's side as gospel.My Bible teaches me there is nothing new under the sun....no thing new...only things new to "Us"....hum same as science...if sceince has nothing to fear it should welcome and explore the possibilites of something other than a "Big Bang" just happening and here we all are.I have enjoyed science all my life and astronmy but when astronmy turns to astrology I pre-fer to take the road of God and faith and not the tides and alignment of stars dictating my future....peace. :)

The true followers of truth wether in sceince or God never do force themselves on anyone.We.."Christians" understand the "I must see for myself" before I believe in something...a guy named Thomas went thru the same thing.

Public schools are there for everyone, not only devout Christians. On those schools are also Buddhists, Hindus, Atheist and so on. Why should they be tought things that have absolutely no relevance for them?
