    Perhaps because YOU used it as an example of why atheists are bad?
    Natzi Germany was not atheist, they were religious ;)
    No it is the same, you do not believe in Allah an 'alien' is not a god like creature. You are wanting someone to spend money that is a god like, all mighty creature on it. So how about the US muslims, they should be expected to spend money in the oppossite of what they believe? :rolleyes:
    Nope thank you for making my point, I never said atheists should be 'in' government. Atheist is nothing, what do you not get about that? It only is a term to describe the nothingness, how is that so difficult for you?

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Separation_of_church_and_state_in_the_United_States

    Here is some reading for you. The constitution is 'vague' ideas, it does not specifically state 'god can not be in the government' it is however pretty easy to see what the intent here was. Yet again the god terms were not originally in the government, they were added the the pledge and coins.
    ONE MAN'S TERRORIST IS ANOTHER MAN'S FREEDOM FIGHTER

    Sort of like our minuteman were 'terrorists' depending on which side you were on..

    I still don't get you. What good comes out of atheism? You take the side of the atheists despite seeing they are only interested in promoting their own agenda which is removing ALL references to God.

    Your point: "Nope thank you for making my point, I never said atheists should be 'in' government. Atheist is nothing, what do you not get about that? It only is a term to describe the nothingness, how is that so difficult for you?" is as believable as homosexuals doing it behind close doors.

    And yet you just had a new law passed in California deleting all references to mother and father from public schools text books. Of course this law just happened and it had nothing to do with the homosexuals as they only do it behind closed doors.

    You can believe that atheism is nothing, and yet atheism has an agenda which you may not fully engage in but seem to completely symphatyse with. Which again proves atheism is NOT just nothing.

    Atheism is true. It needs no other defense.

    Atheists don't want to remove all references to God.

    Deists should be free to hold whatever kooky beliefs they want.

    Feel free to believe in Santa Claus, the Easter Bunny, the Flying Spaghetti Monster, and the Jews hiding under your bed.

    Just remember that freedom of speech does not include a right to be taken seriously.

    People don't become athiests because of how much good will come from it; but because of their belief that there is no deity...

    And, when asking what good comes from it, look at Bill Gates and the money he's donated to making the world a better place...

    As an atheist myself, I'd just say to kill every religious person, especially the Christians. Then celebrate our new beginning...

    Listen up. Why are you bashing atheists? Do you honestly think this is a way to win them over to your way of thinking? You MUST respect their opinions if you have any chance of them to respect yours. I know a lot of atheists that "good comes out of". Therefore, do not tar all athiests with the same brush. Which is not unlike athiests tarring all Christians with the same brush.

    You gotta think outside the square. IMO.

    Col :)

    Atheists aren't all bad people that want to bash religion. They just don't believe in deities and most are quite skeptical, but very logical people. What would happen if atheists had the power?

    I don't think it'll be too different. As long as the one in power is open to all voice and am willing to work for the better of the society, what's the difference between a Buddhist or a Catholic or a Christian or any other religion and atheists? Are you saying that an atheist will act differently from a Buddhist or a Catholic infront of a starving child? Just a question to think about...

    Not all morals are written on a "holy" book. Rational human beings should be able to distinguish what's right and what's wrong. Being an atheist doesn't mean the first decision you make is the make the society anti-religion, even if that individual may not believe in deities.

    No. It's the truth. Christian people are so screwed up in the brain that their religions becomes their life. Why? It's pointless for one thing...secondly, they're making themselves more dumber cuz they believe in something non-existant. Morons...kill them.

    I think you are getting the wrond side here dude. I know a lot of atheists that couldn't care less or so they say until they see a 10 commandment tablet in front of a court house or when they see a kid praying in school or when they see a cross on public land or whatever reference to God atheists seem innapropriate.

    I especially disagree with you: I MUST NOT respect the atheists. Would you respect someone whose goal is tearing your beliefs down and making sure your beliefs don't matter?

    Must respect atheists lol. You're a funny dude.

    Atheists are smarter than people like you, because they don't believe in stupid crap like a god. They don't follow false information from a stupid little book like Christians do. And they definitely don't give a shit about Christians in general...we could care less what you guys think about us.

    Be quiet. You never give any important information to the topic, besides saying little lame comments about me. It's annoying.

    Get used to it. I cop it every day out amongst the people. Jesus even said to "expect it" and worse. If you don't want to respect people then how can you love people? You would be going strictly against Jesus' two commandments in Matthew 22:37-40
