Re: Barry's Latest Numbskull Idea

USCIS engages and supports partners to welcome immigrants, promote English language learning and education on the rights and responsibilities of citizenship, and encourage U.S. citizenship.” If I'm reading this right the USCIS is trying to help immigrants integrate into American society more quickl...

Re: U.S. govt religious persecution alive and well!

Why stop... Articles by different sources are legit... Sure they're legit, but if they all say the same thing they're also redundant. I'm asking you not to post redundant articles. What you are missing is that Christians are not just going to role over and vanish according to the whims of militant ...

Re: A question for Edward

I wasn't expecting my off-hand comment to lead here, but seeing as it has I'm going to take some time and think about it.

Re: U.S. govt religious persecution alive and well!

Unenforceable ban on atheists holding public office remains unenforceable... Unenforceable is not exactly discrimination is it? The 501(3)(c) ban on political speech from the pulpit is unenforced and most likely unenforceable, but you still claim that it's persecution. Careful, your double standard...

Re: A question for atheists

If you knew theism was false, would'nt you become Atheist? Unnecessary, if, acknowledging there is no theism, why would there even be atheism ? There is no light if everywhere, there is darkness. :shakehead: My scenario was not about "no theism" it was about if you knew theism was false. ...

Re: Here are two pretty great articles.

Hi Edward, Before I proceed to read those two articles, can you give us some points you like about the articles? You know, some little bit info directly from you. Thanks. Sure. The articles were written by a science professor at UWGB. Here's the premise: So, in the spirit of Rhett Butler, who joine...

Re: A question for atheists

If Pascal's Wager became Pascal's Guarantee then I guess a lot to think about, since my other option would be to have my soul roasted in hellfire for all eternity. It would be an extremely resentful conversion if it happened. If god existed he'd have a lot of explaining to do. This is an interesting...

Re: U.S. govt religious persecution alive and well!

Mr. Ed it is up to you to prove that Christian persecute atheist by means of enacting laws and then hiding behind those laws to prove they are not persecuting anyone. I'm not sure how you reached that conclusion. I never said that atheists were being persecuted. Frankly, I don't think that they are...

Re: U.S. govt religious persecution alive and well!

The article was about what I've come to expect from you - one sided, inflammatory, and half true. It's a shame that you're so consistent. Bigot... Dawkins and the rest of the New Atheist movement are notable more for being anti-religious than atheist. I get where they're coming from - people have do...

Re: U.S. govt religious persecution alive and well!

FI, I think we're going to have to agree to disagree on this one. Your positions make no sense to me, and your responses to my arguments make me feel like I must have been writing in Klingon or something. FlawedIntellect, what would anyone expect from an militant atheist except the morality based so...

Re: U.S. govt religious persecution alive and well!

Social Justice Warrior? A pejorative term? You have no idea what you're talking about. SJW is precisely what the movement calls itself. If you wish for more information about the history of the Social Justice Warrior movement, and its effects on games journalism and personal liberty (though the vid...

Re: U.S. govt religious persecution alive and well!

Funny you say that, because the SJW movement, with its Radical Feminism, its Pro-LGBTQAlphabetSoup, and its blatant Racism against white people, tends to put its ears in its fingers and whine and complain about the "cis hetero white male patriarchy" all the dang time, crying "racism,...

Ed, please stop persecuting all us Christians here! Err, maybe that's something I should joke about. :troll: Sorry, can't do it.
