I’m an atheist, and I have that same problem. When they talk about getting religion out of public life, I ask, “Why? Why does it offend you? Why does it matter?”

Different camp, but I understand where you’re coming from based on my past experiences, there’s loads of different religions out there, and of course I even read philosophers too. At the end of the day, if I don’t believe what some people say, it really doesn’t have a lasting effect on me after that.

I have no interest in pulling down Ten Commandments monuments or crosses. I have no interest in getting people to believe in my non-belief. Quite honestly, I lost patience with these idiots years ago.

Well, I think the founders had in mind the fact that if one could deal with a few wierdos every now and then, genuine, constructive ideas could come around every now and then. In my opinion, I would put up with the fact that some people may believe in a flat earth every now and then, then let a systematic exclusion of ideas inhibit scientific progress. It’s a tough price to pay with the 1st amendment, but I would argue that historically, and scientifically, tolerating a few odd people every now and then has paid off in America.

What “idiots” are you speaking about behind your pc ?

You appear like you really are !
You show the sad, stupid and arrogant face of atheism...Thank you, go on.

Only stupid secularists are deliberatly mixing up all “religions”, judaism, christianism, islam...They don’t have a clue or try to spread confusion

It was never about religion..

What religion is GOD? That’s right he has none....

Before the Jews, mankind was worshiping all kinds of False god’s, Idols, objects, animals etc...

Pagans were all over the place causing War with other’s because they wanted other’s to believe what they did....

Monotheism was birthed with Abraham and the Jewish people, who embraced 1 GOD the creator of everything created....

The Law of GOD was to show us our shortcomings that no man measured up to a Perfect, Holy Infinite Alpha and Omega Creator...

Christ was a gift from GOD that bring us back into a relationship with the GOD who created us...

This has no religion..Just truth, if you are willing to accept it.
