What religion or denomination were u born to from your folks?

their folks?

Atheists seem to spring from some groups more than others....

But be my guest....i support your lack of religion

But much like homosexuality I dont think it should hold the majority hostage

And likely neither do you...or u would not be here

My father as far as I know was a lifelong atheist (much more aggressively than I am BTW), my mom was brought up Church of England (a war bride) but drifted out of it in her teens.

Both of them are gone now for almost twenty years so I can't ask them about their parents.

And by the way, if orthodox Christianity is true, both of my loving parents are now in eternal torment, aren't they?

I like the way Bill Buckley put it. "Can one be a conservative and not believe in God? Of course. Can one be a conservative and despise God and those who believe in him? Of course not."

I have no beef with any conservative Christian or Jew, and have no problem with religion having a place in the public square.

It's only when someone starts telling me that as a (polite and civil) atheist I can't be a conservative, or that my atheism is harmful to America, that I draw the line and fight back.
