"the “value, ethical soundness and importance” of non-religious Americans."

Apart from a transcendent God there is no such thing as objective ethics. "Sound" or otherwise.

That's their war against Jesus Christ. Humanism recognizes only the individual human as each human's "god." It can recognize no other.

Sadly, many "religious people" will. They are blinded by and are in bondage to a political party.

Their hate for PRESIDENT TRUMP transcends reason.

‘Apart from a transcendent God there is no such thing as objective ethics. “Sound” or otherwise.’

so the millions of individuals who either acknowledge no deities, or who follow multiple gods have never held, or even been aware of an ‘objective ethic’ in pursuing their lives...?

A lot of them. A hell of a lot of them. “If they were good enough for my daddy, they are good enough for me.”

‘That’s their war against Jesus Christ.’

so someone who does not recognize the divinity of Jesus Christ is ‘at war’ with him...? throughout all of history, that would make an immense body of ‘warriors’, would it not...? I am no longer a practicing Christian; in no sense do I consider myself ‘at war’ with any Christian (or otherwise) precepts, so long as those precepts are not forced on me by law or other cultural fiat...

Scientific materialists, theocratic moslems, Fundamentalist Blacks, Folk-Catholic Hispanics, pre-Copernican "indigenous pipples," wiccans, and now the "non-religious."

What a freak show! The only thing holding them together is their hatred of Billy Bob.

“so the millions of individuals who either acknowledge no deities, or who follow multiple gods have never held, or even been aware of an ‘objective ethic’ in pursuing their lives...?”

What would make any ethic they are pursuing “objective?” If they don’t believe in a transcendent God which commands such morals, they are merely following their personal preferences or social convention. That may or may not square up with Judeo-Christian morality. If there is no transcendent God there is no basis for calling anything objectively “right” or “wrong”. At best it could only be legal or illegal; popular or unpopular. And those can and do change quite frequently.

I’m thinking that ship sailed when they booed God at the convention.
