Is atheism illegal or unconstitutional in the USA?
Hardly. Thanks to the secular left it has become the de facto official
religion of the country.
The official religion of the country - atheism - elected a
fundamentalist Christian? Wow! Atheists are that stupid, huh?
When do we get the post about Christians being a persecuted minority
in this country?
IMO, the self-righteous among you Christians
Us Christians? I'm not a Christian and I've never been a Christian -
or any other kind of theist. Sanguinevikings isn't a Christian
either.
(You are diverse, and I'm not
saying that all of you are uppity) can complain about being a "minority" when
you are one; and about being "persecuted" when "under God" comes out of the
Pledge, prayer is no longer a formal part of the Congressional session, and
legislation stops treating bodies as "temples" to be protected from their
owners
That was exactly my point.
