No, your explanations are fallacies. Pretending you have answered is the lame ploy.

No, the Bible is usually avoided, for obvious reasons. Many of your laws and principles come from secular philosophy going back to the ancient Greeks.

No, they should keep their religion out of the process. No one is arguing people of religion should be disallowed from participating in any political process.

Only for the sake of equal rights.

Frankly, your bitterness about religion and lack thereof makes your posts of little value. If I want to learn something about religion, I'll look for a religious poster who is more balanced.

Freedom of religion just means freedom to practice one'e religion and expression which may include teaching others what their religion says.
Another dishonest post. I am talking about no one should control anyone's religion. If they want to be catholic, let them be catholic. But don't let the catholics decide what the laws of the nation are. If they want to be Mormon, let them be Mormon. Even hindu. And even atheist.

There's a difference between teaching someone who wants to learn something, and forcing it down someone's throat. You don't know the difference.

There are over 20 churches in my community and most have electronic billboards out front advertising their 'welcomeness'. People are intelligent enough to walk in...if they want to.

Post your rebuttal in response to my post here. There is no fallacy, only lack of logic in atheism.

No the only thing that has been proven is that you neither understand nor care to understand what atheism actually is. So all you have suceeded in doing is concocting up a new meaning for atheism and find that illogical. What stumps us is when a supposed ly intelligent broad minded person is so bigoted in one aspect of a subject thst she needs to be dishonest and mean spirited to support her bigotry. And I hate having to use those words but none are more accurate.


Atheism does not mean anti religion or anti God. It means without God same as assexual means without sex. I believe the a at the front ofva word like atheist comes from Greek, Harry can correct me if I am wrong.

Germany does not have an army, atheism means anti religion and you have proven atheism lacks logic: are there any other falsehoods you have posted?

Sure, if they keep their religion out of it. There is this fundamental principle of this country referred to as the separation of church and state....

In Everson v. Board of Education (1947), Justice Hugo Black wrote: "In the words of Thomas Jefferson, the clause against establishment of religion by law [the First Amendment] was intended to erect a wall of separation between church and state."
So how do you plan, constitutionally, to keep religious people, priests, and clergy, and teachers of religion from voting?
The "lawmakers" laws were inspired by biblical practices. That is different from "Congress people" passing laws.

He's not saying that.

I think he's saying that it's wrong for a priest (for example) to tell parishioners who they are not allowed to vote for.
