You seem envious that some have weaned from the opiate addiction of religion. That's understandable.Please get back on your meds..
Immediately.
If it's too much for you, we can take it one word at a time in front of the others. After all, that beats the theologian who demands no talking from the pulpit.Are you just pasting sentence fragments together because this comment makes absolutely no sense whatsoever?

People who hate the Bible, as it turns out, are not very good at Biblical interpretation.But I'm an atheist and I regularly quote the bible to argue against government prayer.
Another absurd argument that excludes science. The religious addicts have no right to accumulate to exacerbate epidemiology.

When Jesus said to not do as the hypocrites do, do you think that he expected us not to recognize hypocrisy?And maybe don’t pretend to know what was in his mind.
The only problem is, is that I am a Christian. I don't twist the Lord's words to cover for my behavior. I know I am not perfect but I admit and own my imperfections and my sins. I don't pretend that the Bible doesn't say what it says and that Jesus didn't mean what he said. When Jesus' words and my actions differ, it's 100% on me and not on his inability to communicate clearly.

I'm not an atheist; I'm a Christian. I completely agreed with the Court's ruling. I always defend religion, anybody's religion to the point that they do not harm others or infringe on the rights of others. Praying in public, seeing prayers, even knowing that government leaders are religious people and their experiences and religion are part of who they are does not interfere with anyone's rights and no one is harmed by it.Your quote is incorrect. Yes, Jesus is arguing against (the image of prayer [italics]), and xians have a desire to be recognized as members of a protection racket. They have a desire to antagonize all those who are not members of the protection racket via the scopic drive, an arrogant form of pornography. Otherwise, for future potential recruits to this mafia, moral posturing serves as decoy.
Yours is heresay: it cannot be established what god is being prayed to, or even if there is a prayer underway. No moving lips were documented, either, though it certainly looks like a prayer underway.
'But I'm an atheist and I regularly quote the bible to argue against government prayer. In Matthew 6:5, Jesus condemns public prayer as hypocrisy: "And when you pray, do not be like the hypocrites, for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on the street corners to be seen." As an atheist, I use the bible to convince believers not to abuse their public office to promote their personal religion, pointing to the words of their own savior in his Sermon on the Mount. Like Paine and Lincoln, I write to my audience.'

You don't believe me and you don't believe Matthew. I'm in good company.
Which means the state cannot prevent someone from praying in a public place.Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereo
But what about due process in the 5th Amendment, gun controller? If there's a court hearing and the Court says the person is stripped of their 1st Amendment rights... Because, you know... Due process, gun controller.Which means the state cannot prevent someone from praying in a public place.
You choose to not understand what you are taught.But what about due process in the 5th Amendment, gun controller? If there's a court hearing and the Court says the person is stripped of their 1st Amendment rights... Because, you know... Due process, gun controller.
You claim that the Government can take any right from anyone if they follow due process - which the government gets to specify. You claim there is absolutely no limits to what rights the government can strip and, if they strip it, they can't infringe or restrict your right because now you don't have the right - the government stripped it. In fact, according to you, the government can strip your right to due process ahead of stripping all other rights and then they don't even need due process in order to strip every right you ever thought you had.You choose to not understand what you are taught.
True.Which means the state cannot prevent someone from praying in a public place.
... that's exactly what he was doing.He started coaching at the school in 2008 and initially prayed alone on the 50-yard line at the end of games. Students started joining him, and over time he began to deliver a short, inspirational talk with religious references. Kennedy did that for years and also led students in locker room prayers. The school district learned what he was doing in 2015 and asked him to stop out of concerns the district could be sued for violating students’ religious freedom rights.
He stopped leading students in prayer in the locker room and on the field but wanted to continue kneeling and praying on the field himself after games. The school asked him not to do so while still “on duty” as a coach after the games. When he continued, the school put him on paid leave. The head coach of the varsity team later recommended he not be rehired because, among other things, he failed to follow district policy.
