If what you want to argue is that Judeo-Christian culture is the best, then argue that. But don’t make this about atheists, or you’ve got the muslims on your side too, and I’m pretty sure you don’t want them. Not to mention the brutality that Catholicism has, in the past, evinced. Look, as far as CULTURES go, if I have to live among any religious people, I’ll take the J-Cs. But one of the reasons I’ll take the J-Cs is that the religion is predicated not on obedience, but faith and free will. If you try to shove your religion down athiest throats, you might as well be Muslim.

But based on your arguments about the military providing spiritual counseling, you seem to be satisfied to shove YOUR atheism down our believing throats. Wouldn't that make you like as a muslim yourself?

Such a typical atheistic/liberal double standard. Atheists sure seem willing to force their viewpoint on others the whole while claiming that others are doing the exact same thing to them.

After your declaration in #77, surely you are not now condemning anyone for possessing the might sufficient to be right. If you are, then you are suggesting a higher standard for right than mere might.

don’t make this about atheists

Let’s see . . . what is the title of this thread? Why I think it is, indeed, Atheists Complain of “Spirituality” in Army’s Mental Health Program.

If anything, it strikes me that it’s Atheists who are trying shove their religion down the Army’s throat.
