Thread Name: BS: Militant atheism has become a religion
Subject: RE: BS: Militant atheism has become a religion
Ron Davies adds his name to the list of those who feel threatened by reality. Cosy little Christian indeed. ..

Atheism does not describe a wish to rid the world of religious superstition. Communism fits that bill perfectly, but then only as a perceived threat.

Today, Christians celebrate something that never happened. An executed criminal coming back to life. Wonderful metaphor and of use as a story with a moral, although the actual moral escapes me. As does messing the rest of us around with the date. It would make more sense to pick a date and stick to it if the rest of us have to plan industry downtime on it.

But that's the point really, isn't it? Christianity affects me through Sunday restrictions on commerce and insisting the holi in holiday means holy, yet the minute you question the relevance of it, which you have every right to, you are called s militant atheist.

The difference between religious equality and religious privilege is?

Right. That's it. Going to get my hammer and nails. ..
