Exactly!

Christians are fair game but don't you dare criticise those protected minorites!

Amazing how yet another Biblical prophecy about the last days is being fulfilled.

That is too true.

All I know is that I am confident where I will be when I am dead.

It's just that athiest think they are far superior to believers because they aren't dumb enough to believe in a 'flying spaghetti monster'. They know little to nothing about the faith, and often just pass around the same bullshit they hear from other athiest.

If you want to believe that life started by one big boom, or the fact that your ancestor was an ape, by all means do that. I will continue to be a Christian, and all of this anti-Christian propaganda is not going tochange my mind. How about you liberals do what you preach for once, maybe show some tolerance?

Careful or hevusa will give you an infraction for being a "terrorist who hi-jack the idea of God."

RHS is in danger of being banned too for daring to question the atheists!

Not really. Most Atheists and Agnostics that I know arrived at that point after years of studying religion and finding it unsatisfactory.

Besides that, we are constantly having to defend our beliefs to those who think they have a "message" that we need to hear. We have to know what we are talking about in order to get all those well meaning proselytizers to back off.

In my experience, if I can ask them enough history questions that they can't answer without some intense research and ask them to explain enough Biblical references that they didn't even know existed, they hush up and leave me alone.
Right now America spends $700 billion every year on foreign oil. That's our money going overseas when it could be staying here. We have to stop this.
That's why I support the Pickens Plan. Check out the website at www.pickensplan.com. If you like what you see, please join me as a Pickens Plan supporter.

I actually know Hev real well, I don't agree with his policies by any means, but he is not a bad person. Also don't forget, I'm a moderator.
