"what if god really did tell her to do it?"

And what if the voices really did tell me to mutilate my neighbour with a chainsaw?

 

Anyways, it's not just atheists, they want out, it's everyone but them. These type of people are just plain arrogant, and don't like difference which includes other religions, atheists, LGBTs, and in the past, blacks.

I've noticed that too. Granted I am deployed right now but SoCal is my home and has been for the better part of 20 years.

 

I go back to visit family in Michigan or travel down south for schools or training and the Atheist label gets people all sorts of pissy.

Becky,

 

I guess the S.C. woman thought her dog was possessed. More irrational religious behaviour ; nothing new there.

As to wanting immigrants to leave America: I have no problem w/ LEGAL immigrants who wish to come to our country.

I have a BIG problem with those who enter illegally and expect handouts or get pregnant and cross the border to have an American baby. My brother in law is a mason by trade. The past couple years he has had trouble finding work at decent wages.

Why? Our Mexican friends with no paperwork have moved in and taken over his occupation. Not a level playing field I'm thinkin'. We frequent a local Chinese restaurant and have got to know the owners. They are bitter about the illegals in this country since they followed the proper channels and paid thousands of dollars to get their parents and some others legally immigrated into our country. There seems to be a double standard in use when it comes to who gets in our country and how.

 

The White Anglo Saxon Protestant is still very much alive and well in this country. They have and will continue to control the puppet strings of our governments. They are firmly entrenched and not likely to let loose easily. We have a looooong struggle before us. 

Whenever you tell someone your atheistic immediately follow up with a smile. It throws them off balance even more.

Unreasonable people can't be reasoned with. Luckily, not all Christians are unreasonable and intolerant of others. I think that the secular movement is growing and doing a fine job in the United States. The number of non-believers is growing and famous non-believers are, more and more, speaking out (think Ricky Gervais at the recent awards show where he thanked God for making him an atheist).

Nutcases that torture animals in the name of their god are the exception, not the rule, fortunately.

Your post instantly lit up memory of the video creation from a few years prior, taking a stroll through  WhatIfImagineIf land:

I know a lot of people who would say "good riddance" to the intellectuals and entertainers shown in this video.

I had the same thought.  For most of those shown leaving, the  christians would applaud and rejoice.

Thank you for that link. I was more than happy to sign your petition.

It depends on where you live in America. Some places are less tolerant than others. It is sad that it is still so hard for some people to have acceptance of people who are different.
