Atheists Call for Establishing Atheism as the National Religion
Aerican Thinker ^ | 10/20/2019 | Tom Trinko

Posted on 10/20/2019 6:46:34 PM PDT by antidemoncrat

During the Democrat debate this past week, the Freedom from Religion Foundation (FFRF) ran an ad where Ron Reagan said he is a lifelong atheist and isn't afraid of burning in Hell.

He's saying he objects to the over 84% of Americans who are religious injecting their beliefs into government policies. Essentially, he's calling for the institution of his faith-based belief system, atheism, as a national religion in direct contradiction to the First Amendment.

And I'll bet his first words upon reaching his eternal destination will be "It sucks to be me".

Like I’ve said before, when I went through my time of not believing, it never mattered to me what others were believing or not.

I never thought about having a belligerent attitude towards those of faith.

To hate something that much, you MUST see something there that is real.

And that’s the irony.

Hey Ron Jr, please show me the benevolent atheistic society or civilization in history. There are none. If man believes he is God, there is no check on anything he desires. Even Nietzsche foresaw this over one hundred years ago. Further, you have the luxury of publicly spouting your atheism because you live in a tolerant multireligous Western society. Try that in Iran or Saudi Arabia.

They don’t believe in God and I thought religion. Then they want Atheisism to be the National Religion. How do you make something you don’t believe in a National anything? They are confused and confusing me. Hillary at least she makes some sense. She got cheat by someone, somehow, someway. Trump, the Russians, and those damn religious people ( who or what ever they are) did it.

Atheist’s funeral: all dressed up and no place to go.

Only they won’t leave us “superstitious peasants” alone to worship our `skydaddy’ or `imaginary friend’ or `flying spaghetti monster’ such as they term the Divine.

Instead, atheists trash Nativity scenes or demand removal of tax exempt status from churches or demolish crosses in public places or go ballistic at public prayer at high school events.

Really tolerant folks, yeah.

Personally, every atheist I’ve ever met retreats into agnosticism when I ask for proof that `there is no god’.

“Uh, uh,... well, I don’t have proof one way or another...”

The best among them wish that they knew for sure that God exists.

For those who believe, this life is as close to hell as they ever come.

For those who don’t, this life is as close to heaven as they will ever get.

FED UP PROFESSOR #62
Every human activity has a basis in SOMETHING.
Questions:
What is OURS?
Can Western academia survive the abandonment of its theological origins?
Can America and the West?
It’s looking more doubtful with each passing day.

You’re mistaken, Hildy.

It takes nothing to fear what you simply don’t believe in as a fact.

He doesn’t believe there is an actually Hell, and therefore does not worry about what he believes does not exist.
