E.g. Is America a Christian Nations - Yes - or Woudl you vote for an atheist president otherwise qualifed - No - 80-85% - so this would leave 15-20% who'd answer otherwise. About 21% of US enlisted personel marks "not religious", so we are safe to say that 15-20% of Americans are non religious.<br /> <br />This appears to be an interesting number - you keep hearing from Christians that "not all Christians" are fundies which I agree with. However, the "fundy" mentality and thought of Christians en masse is overwhelmingly showing that they cannot wrap their brains around the poltical process and even the "god given freedom of speech" they tout left and right when it comes to promoting their version of religion.<br /> <br />I don't think this is "confrontrational" to point it out to Christians and also fellow atheists/agnostics - it's reality.<br /> <br />We can talk till cows come home about "liberal/rational Christianity" - it maybe 1-5% in the polls on the Mosque, but it is being washed and shouted down by the fundies.<br /> <br />Maybe it's time for "liberal Xians" to understand that the delusions of the "fundies" are based ont he same faith they both share and it's time for liberal Xians to start a new movement and get going to "preach the gospel of rationality" to their fundy fellow Xians?<br /> <br />Bill Tammeus (well known itnerfaith person in KC) stated to me once that he gave up on fundamental Christians - and Bill has been around for a while. He came to the conclusion that nothing will change their mind.<br /> <br />I think that "liberal Xians" acutally off the mark quite a bit - fundies are 10-15% of Xians, so, this would leave 85-90% of fellow Xians who are the silent marjority when it comes to rights of other faiths/religions to push their own agenda.<br /> <br />Catch 22 for Xianity - they would not mind "tesifying" in comfort of majority about their faith, but when others want to do the same - my woo woo is bigger than your woo woo..<br /> <br />I hate to be always right...www.KCFreeThinkers.orghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05516910878074266949noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7286270105066769701.post-23419440686517241992010-06-03T08:55:51.893-05:002010-06-03T08:55:51.893-05:00Chuck,
I wonder if 4 blocks away from Ground Zero...Chuck,<br /><br />I wonder if 4 blocks away from Ground Zero instead of 3 blocks would be enough of a containment zone to restrain Islamic genies by Christian demons? I'd love to see the battle of these superheroes...<br /><br />Or 5 blocks? Don't the crazies understand that it's all "relative?" I bet you building a Xian church would be a welcome sign.<br /><br />Little to the people know that they all worship the same god, just different prophets/deities?<br /><br />I also enjoyed the sign one of the protesters held "Don't teach us about religious tolerance. Judeo/Christian values give you freedom""<br /><br />Sigh...www.KCFreeThinkers.orghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05516910878074266949noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7286270105066769701.post-16666072591352151592010-06-02T12:54:18.974-05:002010-06-02T12:54:18.974-05:00Uh, the ad hominems are the words the ATHEISTS THE...Uh, the ad hominems are the words the ATHEISTS THEMSELVES have been using.<br /><br />You know, calling beleivers all the names I mentioned.<br /><br />Delusional<br /><br />Psychotic<br /><br />Ad nauseum...<br /><br />The LIE would be denying that they said it, Jack!<br /><br />If you disagree, please point out what the LIE was in my orignal post.<br /><br />Your Humble Servant awaits your response!Emanuel Goldsteinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02653303041185240250noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7286270105066769701.post-28973293507611197692010-06-02T07:30:22.065-05:002010-06-02T07:30:22.065-05:00Glad to see the trolls haven't gotten any more...Glad to see the trolls haven't gotten any more intelligent or inventive.<br /><br />Too bad they can't figure out how to rationally comment on the actual topic of the post.
