It started with the Scopes Monkey Trial, interestingly every “evolution” point they brought up later turned out to be a hoax, such as “Piltdown Man.”
Gee, I wonder if he’s getting nervous about muslims, given they don’t have much doubt about their religion and its tenets, i.e., kill the non-believers, and their growing ranks in Britain and elsewhere in the West. Sad and tragic really. But if history is any indication, it’s going to get ugly in the next few decades. If the West wants to survive with its Jewish and Christian tenets intact, that is.

Our entire culture came out of Christian values. Even an ‘atheist’, if he has any education, realizes that.
1st generation atheists tend to retain the moral order of the Bible (even while quibbling about their favorite vices); it’s the 2nd generation that questions why retain something if you disbelieve the foundation for it? That leads not only to rejection of morality but of beliefs in reason and science grounded in a rational lawgiver. We see this playing out all around us, and the 1st generation atheists are almost as alarmed about it as are theists.
One thing I can’t understand about atheists is, if God doesn’t exist why does mentioning his name worry the hell out of them.
Faith is a gift from God. When He chooses to offer it is not our call. Perhaps, like Judge Bork, Mr. Dawkins will receive his at the 11th hour. Jordan Peterson thinks there is hope for him.
He’s learning what being a cheeky boy gets him.
‘What year exactly did the United States stop being a Christian nation?’
it would be pretty close the year that liberal Christians and their denominations decided that other cultures and religions had cultural equivalence with ours. i’d put it around the middle of the last century. the currency was the end of the value of assimilation being first and then replaced with the so called ‘melting pot’ dogma. look for the appearance of the ‘melting pot’ narrative. also when we got the Statue of Liberty from France and the liberals put that stupid poem on it.
This is another avenue that they will destroy Christianity with. C-opting the term (s) Christian (Christianity). He outright refuses to see the evidence of God. He essentially says, it doesn’t matter what evidence you show me, I still won’t believe. I’ve seen many of his “debates” with Christian scholars and that is where he stands. Sadly.
He’s realizing that the “culture of your country” is dependent on the underlying religion that shapes it. He’s probably looking at all the Mohamedan’s and attitudes they have and realizes this is what comes with Islam - so you’d better make your choice, sitting ‘agnostic’ isn’t an option.
