They need to stop hating on Christianity.
They need to stop hating on Christianity.
Atheists are all about removing all signs of religion in the United States, especially the Christian religion. They want everything gone, completely. They would take the cross off your grandmother's gravestone, dig her up and take the cross off her neck if they could get away with it.
And yet, after all those decades of trying to stifle religion, through murder, theft and destruction, it seems to have made a comeback. Perhaps there is more to this religion deal than we think.
When atheists are critical of religion it is usually Christianity. They are largely silent on Islam and Hinduism, among scores of others.. That tends to make them one-dimensional.

That is one case in history and I don't see that happening anywhere anymore?
How many examples are there right now of the religious forcing it on their people at the state level? The middle east is rife with these terrible abuses. History is absolutely littered with the religious oppressing others.
Pfffft, I dislike all religions based on how bad their followers abuse it. Islam seems to be far worse that Christianity from a general perspective.
Of course there are plenty of good people of every religion but... I'm an equal opportunity hater as well.

You have never read a single book by any of the New Atheists then. Whether its Hitchens, Sam Harris, or Dawkins, nothing draws their ire like Islam, followed by fundamentalist Christianity and Orthodox Judaism. Sam Harris is not a fan of moderate Muslims and Christians, but only because he believes they enable the radical elements in their faith.

No, and if it is a private school with no government funding they can go ahead and pray.
I would even not have an issue with given a moment before class to say a silent and personal prayer. I am objecting to it being done over the intercom/pa system at schools.
I hear they steal the children of Christians and sacrifice them to science.
So you would hate Christmas and Easter then. Must be difficult times. Perhaps a way of eliminating this 'hate' is to bring the love of your fellow man into your heart. You can do this by attending a Church and paying some attention to the teachings of Jesus.I do not hate religion (including Christianity), I hate the excesses of religion, the proselytizing by religious groups or individuals and constant public displays of religious acts and ceremonies.
Bet you wouldn't try stopping a Muslim from laying his rug down.
Who is 'they'?
Yes, they tendto be more aware of Christianity so they tend to focus on them. Their disinterest in religion makes it difficult for them to learn the different beliefs in varying religions so they pick on the closest at hand.No, usually atheists are never bothered by Hinduism and with only a limited amount of Islamic interference, it is usually down to Christians in Western democracies who are the biggest problem for atheists.
Muslims do not have much influence so there is a lot less reason to criticize them other than denouncing their views (which atheists actually do).
Atheists, you Gantt trust them. They are trying to destroy Christianity while promoting Islam through devious, backdoor means.
Oh, okay. Thanks for that.

The reason, or alleged reason, people are being stripped down at airports and having their phone calls traced, and being spied on by cameras on street corners, is because of Muslims. They are also attacking villages, and even airports, throughout the world. If you think Islam is not effecting your life you should read something other than the MSM.
But those holidays are based on "all the religious stuff". What would atheists celebrate without them?No, I enjoy a nice totally non-religious holiday season. I celebrate having 2 days off work with loved ones with good foods and sometimes a few gifts. Celebrating holidays is perfectly possible without all the religious stuff.
As compared to whom? Atheists?You mean the church that has been a source of injustice, death and hatred throughout the centuries?
There is actually no evidence that atheists have ever opened any charities, built any hospitals, or created an international system to help the poor of every nation. Atheists as a group have accomplished nothing. They are nihilists.Sorry, but I do not need the teachings of someone I do not believe ever existed (as a son of god that is). Also, one live a perfectly decent, loving and fellow man loving life without religion.
