Comments on: The Word Made Flesh: You Will Pry My Rights Away From My Cold Dead Hands http://gods4suckers.net/archives/2008/03/23/the-word-made-flesh-you-will-pry-my-rights-away-from-my-cold-dead-hands/ Commentary, news, and rants on the evils and stupidity of belief in the big invisible daddy in the sky. Illuminating and watchdogging the widespread attempts to institutionalize the theocratic rule of the US. Making fun of believers everywhere.

Can't even have a presidential election on the issues alone, god beliefs have to be first and foremost for Christians of all kinds. Just look at even the liberal candidates and the way they interject god into everything. So, you think we are just here to "smoke" Christians? No...much more than that. We are trying to prevent a theocracy which if we didn't keep on our toes about, would suddenly take over our secular government. If you are an atheist, wake up and see things as they really are. If we sit back and say nothing and just "get along" we will find ourselves back in the dark ages of theocratic rule. The worst of the lot of people to deal with are born again christians, just quit smoking people, and atheists who think all believers in god are wrong.

My suspicions tell me that you are actually a believer, since this tactic has been used here more than once. We would like nothing more than to “live together” and to “try to get along” but at every turn, in the news, in politics, religion is in our faces, shoved at us from every direction. Can’t even have a presidential election on the issues alone, god beliefs have to be first and foremost for Christians of all kinds. Just look at even the liberal candidates and the way they interject god into everything.

So, you think we are just here to “smoke” Christians? No…much more than that. We are trying to prevent a theocracy which if we didn’t keep on our toes about, would suddenly take over our secular government.

If you are an atheist, wake up and see things as they really are. If we sit back and say nothing and just “get along” we will find ourselves back in the dark ages of theocratic rule.

I don't believe in any god. This site points out many stupid things that religion does. My biggest concern is that many religious people of "true faiths" are not against atheists. They actually support our views, they just don't accept them. Their beliefs encourage them to help others, no matter what their faith is. Many people need this crutch to give them a meaning in life. Don't condemn them all because of the radicals. Accept them for who they are, not what they are. The worst of the lot of people to deal with are born again christians, just quit smoking people, and atheists who think all believers in god are wrong.

AHHHH (sigh of relief), yes it is Chuck. Going to the Easter dinner is quite bizarre. The kids are all dressed up after going to mythology temple and then they talk about what the Easter Bunny left them and how he magically comes and brings these baskets of crap. There is little talk about Jeebus and fortunately my Mom doesn't do prayers to the sky daddy to thank for the slaughtered ham and whatever else we are going to pig out on. Then when my little hyperactive nephew arrives it's total chaos and no one can even talk anymore. SO...next year my husband and I decided to STAY HOME. It's like why are we participating in this crap????? We can see family at another time. Isn’t it nice, however, when these fucking religious holidays are over?…AGAIN!

This is the rub...religion and religionists still get a free pass. In this country you even have the right to neglect a child's pressing medical needs in the name of some imaginary friend. A pharmacist can question a doctor's orders on religious grounds. A student can receive credit on an exam for any religious blathering force-fed by delusional parents. Religion still gets a free pass. Sad. “And I, as a moral, law-abiding, tax-paying, secular citizen, am just as entitled to the same rights as any religious citizen.”
