True, but as a group, atheists of my acquaintance don't tend to *institutionalize* hate. I hate things like bad food, stinky cooter and people who are trying to impose their beliefs on me. I don't hate people who aren't harming me at all...
I am not going to apologize for examples like this fuck mentioned in the article, but I do think it's ok for people to whisper "God help me get out of this shit!"
I have noticed the people who need God are usually the kind looking for some kind of check on their own behavior. Then, they are liked reformed alcoholics telling everyone, whether appropriate to the message or not, how they should not drink.
Religious people harp on shit that allegedly happened 1400 years ago (if you're Muslim), 2000 years ago (if you're Christian), or even longer than that (Judaism, Hinduism, Buddhism, etc.) Of course, it's reasonable to doubt any of it happened (like Scientology, to name one example). Of course, none of them can get their alleged holy books straight, or even approaching modern ethical standards. It's why I don't participate in any of it anymore.
A muslim can prosper in a Christian society as can an atheist. A Christians in a muslim society are tortured murdered. Christians in an atheist society (reference Soviet oppression of religion) will be forced to practice their beliefs in secret. Make no mistake muslimism (guns and bombs) and atheistism (courts and press ridicule) are more violent and intolerant than CURRENT Christians. Yes there are dipshits that claim to be Christians but mass murder and religious oppression are not on the Christian agenda. Where as murder is promoted by muslimism and oppression the watchword of atheism.
The first line of the first amendment states:
"Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech,"
The US Constitution is the only one in the world that prohibits an official state religion.
The muslims by their own admission feel obligated to force their religion on the world "at the point of a sword".
The atheists, by twisting this right to suit their new relgion, are forcing their religion on the rest of the country through the courts.
This is very dangerous because the backlash may be worse than what they claim as a problem.
Just sayin
Everyone on this site is pretty much non-religious. I learned back in my Sociology classes non-religious people can be Christian but they are Christians in which religion has little to no influence on their lives, such as pretty much all my Christian friends.
We shouldn't be arguing religion since we are pretty much all living secular lives by going to strip clubs. This Pastor Scott guy is a zealot however his kind of people are small in number and are despised by most Christians, and most non-religious people.
