Instead of suing cities for Christmas displays, atheists should do something useful

Instead of wasting money putting up Christmas decorations and building giant multi-million dollar cathedrals, Christians should do something useful.

For example, there are many people who are poor, hungry, naked, in prison, or in the hospital, who need help and human companionship.

Instead of posting thread after thread after thread of religious posts on this forum, the OP should do something useful.

I clarified it in in post #119, and I can post from another source too

Nation: a large body of people, associated with a particular territory, that is sufficiently conscious of its unity to seek or to possess a government peculiarly its own

Country: the territory of a nation.

Clearly the word 'nation' is a misused one by many so it's expected that many dictionaries also provide the common, and wrong, definition of it as being the same thing as a country or state. This is understandable however as In very many cases the state/country is indeed the same as the nation.

 

I rest my case. Me implying intellectual superiority with that sentence is clearly debatable.

You replied 'so you say' to me saying 'the thing is simply that many people here dont understand that narion (sic) and country arent the same thing'. In my view that's interpreted as you not agreeing with my view on that.

who the hell cares about poor people? Cathedrals are way prettier.

 

translation: You are totally correct, but I am too proud to admit it, so I'll try to deflect attention onto something else.

 

put a (non) in front of "case" and all is done.

 

No creationist will ever admit to being wrong on anything.

 

I don't think parantheses is what you should have used there. I need not say more than I already have, enough of this.

 

'militant atheist'......................???????

how many atheist, are militant?

have you ever noticed that the majority of all atheist, are evolved theist? Have you ever observed a child, when they first find out that santa aint real?

People are just 'growing up' while the other are sustaining beliefs, simly because they choose, not because of what is true or what is real.

 

This is not responsive to the fact that the COTUS does not support your position. Avoiding that doesn't make it go away.

 

99% of the most vocal ones.

Not evolved at all. Ignorant on what that term actually means.

I've never met a child who did think Santa was real.

Not what's real, what they believe - based on faith.

 

Name a country that is not a nation, or a nation that is not a country. Try to avoid slang use like "Red Sox Nation".

 

COTUS misinterpreted the founders then, so their rulings should be changed.

 

Oh, well, you lost that one.

 

the country belgium, which is made out of two nations -flanders and walloonia- and the nation of kurdistan, which doesn't have a country.

 

dont forget palestine

 

indeed, and palestine. And the basques, catalans, bretons, welsh, scottish, sami, etc. Of course, most have some kind of local autonomy.

 

"atleast"

As I said. The intellectually inept.

 

Countering public displays of religion is being productive I don't care if your a Christian or believe in the Pink Unicorn or fairies or your pet gerbil is the avatar of the Gerbil Spirit just keep it to yourself leave the real world to the rest of us. If you decide to foist that crap on the public on public land so it violates the Separation of Church and State a wonderful construct of the Courts to protect society from faith as far as we can.

The world of observable science and morality based on rational application of reason not dusty old books to some Divine Force that are sometimes thousands of years old of dubious origin.
