I want their belief in Atheism (faith that there is no god) out of my public schools. Freedom OF religion is not freedom FROM religion.

Agnosticism is the word for those who say "don't know". Atheisms claim to know.

We don't hate Christians," said David Fitzgerald, 40, an insurance broker and member of San Francisco Atheists. "People in this country are free to believe in whatever they want."

Nonetheless, during the Saturday night movie, the crowd booed and hissed when a photo of Pat Robertson was displayed on the screen.

Priceless!

Between the agnostic and atheist positions, the agnostic position is the most rational.

"Freedom OF religion is not freedom FROM religion."

Pretty meaningless statement. For some science is a religion, for some sex is. Buddhism is a religion and yet the existence of any diety is superfluous. Are we going to pass legislation requiring that every American be involved in some sort of religion? Should Satanism or Scientology be allowed satisfy that requirement? Look, I am not anti-Christian, but these sorts of meaningless statements hurt the conservative cause.

Atheism is the root of all Liberalism. People who beleive in a God would not support killing babies and supporting communists.
