Nope. Founded by reasonable people on rational principles.No, it's not, but we've already ground that one into the ground. Suffice it to say...the US was founded upon Christian principles, by Christians.
Nope. All was well until intellectually dishonest superstitious retards started fucking with it.Which is why we have been the best, most free, most liberated country in the world. Until dumbshits like Loki and Sky started fucking with it.
The OP does exactly what he is bitching about, which I find hilarious. With many christians in this thread backing him up.
You don't like them attacking their beliefs, but turn around and do the very thing you are bitching about. Sounds like a good idea to me.
I am doing, for the first and only time, what religious people here are subjected to pretty damned regularly. I see a shit load more anti religion threads than threads going after atheists. Call me hypocritical if you must. I'll even admit to hypocrisy, if you'll admit to being an evangelical atheist.
Thanks for admitting this is a flame thread.
It is not extreme, they have a right to hire who they want to hire. If satan worshipers don't like it, too bad.It would be better if you just asked me if that was what I meant. As it turns out, it isn't. Churches and religious organizations generally have a broad exemption from religious discrimination, covering all their employees. This means that a church, for instance, is allowed to hire only Christian janitors or gardeners, even though religion plays no fundamental part in their duties.
I think that's extreme.
They have to abide by federal law.
They have to abide by federal law, which is why she is an advocate of the federal government forcing same-sex marriages upon us. Because THEN churches can be invaded and the leftist lunatics can dictate what is preached, who is ordained, and what the Bible REALLY means.

Separation of Church and State?
Works both ways, not just how you want it to, Sky.
Well, churches and other religious organizations can discriminate based on religion.They have to abide by federal law.
Separation of Church and State?
Works both ways, not just how you want it to, Sky.
Separation of church and state is consistent with obeying federal laws.

Nope!

The free exercise of religion has some limitations. We don't allow Christian Scientists to kill their children when they can be treated medically. We don't support Mormons having multiple wives or sleeping with their children.
We don't support Shari'ah Law.
you see, i have no problem with your choice to be an atheist. I feel sad for you, but i keep that to myself, and don't start endless threads to ridicule your belief system.
Of course not, fool!Nope!

But we can't force a Roman Catholic Doctor to perform an abortion, require the local Baptist church to marry 2 men or force an Islamic family to eat ham sandwiches.
Let's suppose you worked for your state prison system, and your warden ordered you to execute a condemned prisoner. How would you react?
We make reasonable exception as we do with freedom of speech. We allow people to practice their religion as long as their practice doesn't harm others.
How are you harmed by a nativity scene in the city park if it does not cost the taxpayers?
I find it funny how someone who claims they don't believe in God spends a lot of time degrading him. Atheists are there own worst enemy.They have no God other than themselves, think all they see around them is an accident of nature and want to force everyone into their warped way of thinking.
Look through the religion and ethics thread list. It seems that atheist are a whole lot more evangelical than the Christians they constantly complain about.
Imagine that! A troll thread in response to a troll thread at USMB? http://www.usmessageboard.com/religion-and-ethics/197004-god-is-a-monstrous-evil-bloodthirsty-tyrant.htmlyou see, i have no problem with your choice to be an atheist.

1. I could care less if a nativity scene is in the city park if it's not funded by tax payers.
2. I have no problem with people practicing their religion when it doesn't harm others. I include children in the group of harming others.
3. I would not execute a prisoner because I don't kill others.
4. I don't feel a RCC doctor should perform abortions.
5. I don't feel a Baptist minister should be required to marry two men.
6. I don't feel an Islamic or Jewish family should be forced to eat pork.
Gotta spread some more. Owe you doubles.Imagine that!
