Thank God for secularism

[martybegan]

Religious freedom means freedom from your bullshit religion too.

It means you don't have to join a given church, you don't have to tithe to it, you don't have to attend worships involving it.

What it doesn't mean is no religion in public. What it doesn't mean is the government being atheist.

Maybe, but we learned long ago that murdering our fellow tribe members was bad. Even chimps display this basic morality.

Learning it and putting into practice is two different things.

Seen any news lately?

Delusional peole having hypoxic episodes think and say all manner of crazy things.

It's not very compelling to say people at 30% brain function suddenly hallucinate and find god.

Like I said.

You will acknowledge God.

Just remember when you do, that I told you in advance.

Your last sentence sinks it all. Government being religious is s theocracy. As a christian im vehemently oppised to a christian theocracy.

People who live in glass houses shouldn't throw stones.

That would be a better place to start, IMO.

Hahaha ohhh boy am i bookmarking THIS one!

Strange, I bet some of them are Christians!

And sometimes chimps kill a member of their own tribe.

But usually not.

 

[MisterBeale]

I missed thd Bible passages about unfettered Robber Baron capitalism.

Oh, there are lots of versus commenting on slavery and robbery IIRC.

 

[sartre play]

I am fine with not forcing schools.

But it amazes me that Dems are so offended by teaching people thou shall not kill or steal

It really explains why blue cities are such crime ridden

OK so put up a sigh that say don't steal,
wow hope we do not need a sign that tells your kids not to kill or HATE your neighbor
Because they do not attend your church or join your political party.
That is not in the bible.

You will acknowledge God.

Yeah , i very much doubt that. And if I am in a delusional, near death state wherein I acknowledge god, I will probably also be acknowledging unicorns and fairies and leprechauns, too.

Which of the commandments do you disagree with?

The made up author.

No one on this Earth is without sin.

No fair. Some folks only believe in classical liberalism when convenient.

"All sober enquiries after truth, ancient and modern, Pagan and Christian, have declared that the happiness of man, as well as his dignity consists in virtue. Confucius, Zoroaster, Socrates, Mahomet, not to mention authorities really sacred, have agreed in this."

Sadly, hate is something that is a commandment of the left

Just look at how upset they get over someone telling their kids not to steal or murder

Dearborn makes you go to Mosque?

 

[whitehall]

You think that's his real name?

Okay!

backs away slowly

He is a Brit and he relies on British Guardian stuff. He's not really Sherlock Holmes you dope.

So no religious people belong in government?

Where so secular morals come from?

When you are done whining and prancing and preening, go ahead and try to make the point you imagined you were going to make.

Go on.
