I notice the God-less crowd never goes after Islam.

This lifelong atheist ignores Islam, the religion, and agitates against Islamism, the assertion of Islamic superiority over all things western.

Islamism declared global war against America and western culture at least as far back as the Iranian seizure of the American embassy in Tehran in 1979. I said at the time—along with many of us here today, of course—trying to negotiate with religious fanatics was the wrong thing to do. I've said that again and again over the years since then. No one wants to hear we're in a world war against an avowed enemy who's entitely glad to fight it one skirmish and one battle at a time over the next couple centuries. It's much simpler to tell ourselves we're in this or that little local war on the ground in Asia. As long as we keep pretending this is everything but a world war, (not to mention letting our masters in Washington, D.C. throw away our rights as fast as they can,) the Islamists will keep winning and we'll keep losing.

If we'd taken action during the Iranian hostage crisis of 1979, the Islamists probably wouldn't have blown up the Marine barracks in Lebanon. If we'd troubled ourselves to win the Gulf War against Iraq, the Islamists probably wouldn't have launched the first attack against the World Trade Center. If we'd obliterated Mecca with one bomb on September 12, 2001, the odds are high nobody would be worrying about Iranian nuclear weapons today. Do you see a pattern?

All that said™, some atheists do, indeed, behave badly, especially in front of television cameras. So do some Christians; so do some Muslims; so do some Hindus, et cetera. I ask you not to judge all atheists for the actions of the loudest and most self-important few.

Atheists judge me as a ‘’fool’’ and a ‘’dupe’’ for my beliefs. I judge them the same. There is no such thing as ‘’Islamism’’. Islam is ALL radical and Saracens are all terrorists , in thought and in deed. Nice try at moral relativism, atheist.

This Catholic does not. I judge my atheists on a case-by-case basis, but I expect the same courtesy from them, as well. Thanks for your kind comment.

I agree, Standing Wolf. Everybody --- atheist or Christian or whatever---- has a right to his or her good reputation based on their own behavior, and not somebody else's.

Tip o' the hat to you.

A person who acts in an honest, upright, kind, and decent manner always has my respect.

In general, atheists are pro-islam and they, like muslims, assert the superiority of islam over all things western. I'm sure you have heard (countless times) from ahteistic and secularist sources of anti-historical propaganda how "the islamic civilization was scientifically more advanced than primitive christian europe" and how "we have to thank muslims for the rebirth of science in the west" and how "the crusades set back the progress of science" and how "muslims invented chemistry and mathematics while europeans were mired in superstion" and how "the crusades was an unprovoked war of aggression against innocent muslims" and how "christians are violent and evil: just look what they did to the poor muslims during the crusades, etc, etc."

They have been saying this over and over and people today mostly believe these denigrations of Christianity and western culture.

So, in short, a vote for atheism is a vote for islam. Atheism is islam's loyal buddy.
