I don’t care what atheists think.
All the more reason to support Ted Cruz.
Amen!
Atheists: We don’t believe in God... and we hate Him!
Atheists should be experts at “blasting” people, because they are in league with Hell itself.
Atheists can go to hell.
They won’t believe what’s it like!
Heh.
They ridicule those who fear god, but they fear death as much if not more than god fearing people.
Ted’s Response should be along the lines of
“And their reaction shows exactly why there NEEDS to be a God, because unrestrained anger like that points to a NEED for a universal objective oral code to restrain such anger in most people, for without such a code, society would be an ‘anything goes’ society that would be detrimental to us all- and fortunately our God has provided just such a code. It’s just too bad that some angry individuals refuse to get to know the code giver”
There was a time when an atheist’s testimony was inadmissible in a court of law. After all, to whom could an atheist make an oath of attestation?
Judge a man by the enemies he makes...
I would have simply responded, “Fear of the Lord is the beginning of all wisdom.” Next question. Idiots wouldn’t even know they were being insulted.
A ‘none’ isn’t necessarily a humanist or atheist.
Some people just say that and non-denominational interchangeably, and some say none meaning ‘none of your business. ‘
“By claiming that those who do not pray are not fit for office, Senator Cruz is perpetuating the prejudiced myth that humanists and atheists are not moral people,â€
And he proves it everyday by showing what a fascist nazi he is - as all the national socialists are.
Is it just the believers who think the only thing greater than themselves MUST be God or a god? Is there really nothing between us and God?
One can draw a straight line between this and the growing decay of society.
Apparently Freedom of Thought is a one way street for Atheists. Like everything else freedom is relative for them.
Pray America wakes
Self-identified atheists tend to be aligned with the Democratic Party and with political liberalism. About two-thirds of atheists (69%) identify as Democrats (or lean in that direction), and a majority (56%) call themselves political liberals (compared with just one-in-ten who say they are conservatives). Atheists overwhelmingly favor same-sex marriage (92%) and legal abortion (87%). In addition, three-quarters (74%) say that government aid to the poor does more good than harm.
*From Pew Research Center - 7 Facts About Atheists
No Person except a natural born Citizen, or a Citizen of the United States, at the time of the Adoption of this Constitution, shall be eligible to the Office of President; neither shall any Person be eligible to that Office who shall not have attained to the Age of thirty five Years, and been fourteen Years a Resident within the United States.
Article II, Section 1, Clause 5
I don’t see any other constitutional requirement.
I happen to agree with Cruz on this, and this story only reinforces my admiration for him.
But just for a moment let’s conduct a thought experiment. Let’s leave the Creator out of it, just for the moment.
OK, here goes: Would the atheists be happier having a President who thought himself to be the center of the universe, because there would be no more powerful human being and (of course) no more powerful Being of any sort, or would they be happier with someone who understood that he was mortal, that his acts were being watched and judged, and that he subscribed to a moral code that is geared toward helping one’s fellow humans and not treating them worse than animals because you can get away with it?
Filter ideology out of it - just look at whether the person in the WH should be humble and have a realistic perspective of his place on this Earth, or whether having a man with lots of ego and no moral restraints is better?
I know the sensible and logical answer to this question. Do they?
