Your own personal interpretation of truth just like you apply to your bible. Doesn't make it true.

You ought to read it sometime.
I continue to read it. It is an endless reservoir of truth and power. Most of our social problems would go away if we followed the principles in the Bible.

There are some sensible things in that book, but much that is garbage!

Typical belittling tactic. The truth is atheists are one of the most close minded group out there. Atheists continue to prove to me daily that they are simply incapable of every admitting that they can be wrong about ANYTHING! Atheists think they are the supreme experts of every single field of knowledge in the universe and everyone else is just intellectually inferior.


Two things you will most likely NEVER hear in this lifetime:

"I, the POTUS, have an issued an executive order eliminating income tax."

"You know what, that Christian person actually made a good point!"

And 'Christians' like you state as FACT something which is a mere belief with no evidence to support it!

So not being Christian, and not allowing Christians free roam is anti-American and traitorous? Wow, you would have fit in real well in the old world. You know, the one people came to this country to escape?


You are the anti-American one. You are the one who thinks only certain people should have certain rights, and only YOUR religion should be able to have free roam to do whatever they want. You sir, are Anti-American.

Says the guy who is incapable of even admitting that there is a POSSIBILITY that he is wrong about his religion or God. You are quite the joke Jeff.

University school chaplains are an American tradition? Really? Gee... I thought American traditions were things like the seventh inning stretch, standing up when the flag goes by in a parade, eating buffalo wings on Superbowl Sunday.

I had NO idea university school chaplains were an American tradition. That's sounds like something the fundamentalists pulled out of their nether regions. I'll bet you got that from one of your far-right fundamentalist websites.

I went to three American colleges. None had a chaplain. We did, however, have football teams and marching bands. Which are actual American traditions.

That is actually not true for the vase majority of atheists. Show us some INFORMATION that demonstrates wrong, and to hot damn, we will admit we are wrong.

I admit that Allah is real. Get it right.
