The hardcore atheists have really adopted a religion of nothingness.
I proved this point on Twitter the other day during a discussion with my buddy, who is actually an atheist. As soon as we started discussing religion/atheism, literally 25-30 atheists descended upon my timeline, complaining how Christianity ruined the world, and how my faith is so anti-logical.
They are a pathetic bunch. They spend their days, trying to ruin everyone else’s fun.
The “government” can not be used as a mechanism to force the people to listen to “your” speech or “my” speech, nor can they silence either of us.
That is a function reserved to the people, in a civil society.
Our society is quickly becoming uncivil, due to radical elements of our government acceding to the whims of a vocal radical minority, in defining civil society down to absurd deviant levels.
The correction will be bloody, as it has always been, as it is now in other places, and has always been, throughout human history.
Sigh.
Yes Islam promotes the initiation of force against non believers. Is is totalitarianism. I think that it crosses the line and should be treated as a danger. I don’t mind saying that I am prejudiced against Muslims for rational reasons. I can coexist with Christians because in a free society I don’t have to deal with them. You get enough Muslims in a society and freedom starts to go the way of the Dodo bird. Pretty soon you have no choice but to deal with them as they try to impose Sharia.
Yes I didn’t read the article just the headline. I mistakenly thought it was about another story in Texas where some atheists wanted to put up a display and were forbidden by the government because it would be offensive to Christians. I think these radical groups should get a life.
They already did, in Bradford County, Florida. The monument is actually a bench, which I think it is hilarious. I can't wait to go to Florida and place my rear end on the atheists monument!
Really? Really? You'll let them do that? Oh, thank you!!!
Well, ya know what? Stuff it, Cavell, because government officials and others don't get their rights from you. You can't give them, and you can't take them away.
And which religion are our laws derived from, and our countries principals based on? Certainly not the KKK or the atheists.
That was somewhat rhetorical, but I am really curious what the atheist plaque had on it? The founding principals of atheism? The ‘golden rule’ of atheism?
I’ve read a number of articles about this, none of which had any mention of what they said.
Yes, and may He keep us from the libs' attempts to take Him out of Texas.
“Allowing the atheists to put up a monument is no different than letting Pepsi put one up on the court house grounds.”
Your logic is unassailable. But it’s the wild fervor, anger, & determined stance of the atheist that make his views seem like those of an established religion. In other words, often a disease is diagnosed solely by its symptoms in the absence of solid bacteriological evidence.
Isn’t today the anniversary of the Dwight D. Eisenhower “In God We Trust” order ?

It was declared the official motto during the Cold War to counter soviet state atheism .......
Stay safe !
I remember when Christine O’Donnell (sic?) was debating the idiot Democrat during the Delaware Senate Race.
They were at a Law School, and when the Democrat started going on about the Separation of Church and State, Christine said it wasn’t in the Constitution, which of course it isn’t.
The Students in the Audience laughed at and booed her. These are future Lawyers, and unfortunately future Liberal Politicians, and they actually believe the made up crap.

Yes indeed. I have been called a ‘racist MFer’ for pointing out that while the Constitution does make the Prez the Commander in Chief of the armed forces it specifically says that Congress has both the power of the purse and is responsible for approving the regulations and laws that shall govern the armed forces, i.e. DADT. So that BHO could not unilaterally void DADT. The respondent believed I was dissing ‘his’ president by stating this.
