It's The National Motto, Idiots

[Grandma]

Prove He's imaginary.

That's easy.

Wait for a natural disaster to throw some city government-owned stuff ino a privately-owned house, causing damage.

The city's insurance will call it "an act of God."

Have counsel for the plaintiff as well as counsel for the defense call God to the stand, or at least give a written affidavit singed by God and notarized.

 

[Grandma]

"Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof."

Exactly.

By putting that statement on government vehicles it indicates that those that do not worship the judeo-xtian god won't get the same level of service as those that do.

Unconstitutional.

The right’s contempt for religious liberty and religious diversity comes as no surprise, including the right of citizens to be free from faith.

including the right of citizens to be free from faith.

FROM?

Where is that right enumerated?

Complete nonsense.

the right of citizens to be free from faith.

There is no such right, as such a right would interfere with the free expression clause in the 1st. Your "right" to be free of religion extends only to your own beliefs.

Law enforcement swears an oath to uphold our "secular" Godless Constitution. Also, the dumbasses can't provide any proof of the imaginary God they trust in.

God is not imaginary and why do you assume that they cant prove God? Why do you think the ancient Greek philosophers known as Platonists went from believing in polytheistic gods born in time and space, in favor of a Creator God who created time and space?

Because with the latter you get to set people up from childhood for an authoritarian state, instead of a democratic one. And if you make the god "male", you give men carte blance to run the show.

Horseshit. Actually read your First Amendment. There's the right right there. The "right to be free from faith" means you can't have it imposed involuntarily.

So you think Plato was crazy? roflmao

I think anyone who believes in imaginary Gods is stupid. Very stupid. There is absolutely nothing to support it.

Prove He's imaginary.

The onus is always on the positive, i.e. the assertion -- not on the negative.

 

[dannyboys]

Prove He's imaginary.

Prove my dick isn't 12 inches long.

Well, I think he could prove it is imaginary, lol.

Considering 'he' is a 'she'. LOL

"native" americans must be high on the "stupid" list, then...they believed/believe in lots of "gods" and "spirits"...

He doesn't need to. Again, the onus is on the asserter.
That would be the theist.

No, it states :Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof.

I don't think people who grow up indoctrinated under anthropomorphic monotheism grok the broader meaning of the word "gods". It's not like they're multiple versions of the simplistic childlike cartoon character we were given.

The orishas of the Yoruba, for example, are not old white-bearded men sitting in the sky. They're better described as "forces of nature", e.g. Shango, who embraces the character of fire. Doesn't mean he's some kind of wispy superhuman who actually created it. That's quite a different POV than just going "well there's this old man, and he's a man even though there's no woman, and he made everything". It's way more complex than can be expressed in a simplistic term like "gods".

These so-called "gods" of so-called polytheists are not simply clones of the tired old façile authoritarian figure the monotheists came up with to control the primitives in a top-down hierarchy. Not at all.

Exactly. And that leaves the citizen the right to be let alone by the State about it. Makes it strictly a personal choice, which is what it must be.

Bullshit.

I never said "white supremacists aren't white". I posted a video of a Dave Chapelle skit about a black white supremacist --- that's what we call a "joke".

As for the other part you should actually read the whole post, not just the first three words.

I asked for a link so as to define your terms. Because it doesn't sound like you know what "gods" means. So where's that link?
