As an atheist I am tired of religion being shoved down my throat
People need to realize that they should keep their religion to themselves. It is a personal thing.
Separation of church and state -- Begins at home.
They feel persecuted by not being allowed to persecute. That starts with the Puritains.
Walked into a medical center for a checkup and lost my freaking mind... not only did they have sayings all over the office walls saying they are children of god and other BS jesus crap but when I went to sit down all the chairs had religious pamphlets on them.. I went straight back to the front office and pitched a fit.. I'm so tired and triggered by it now.. always always in your face with it.
Thank you for the work you do.
Good discussion. Thank you.
I don't understand why his microphone wasn't cut and he wasn't removed from the stage? Was that not illegal on the part of the administrators and school...defacto concurrence with his thoughts?
10:30 That student *SHOULD NOT HAVE RECEIVED HIS DIPLOMA AT ALL!* Instead, he should've been *EXPELLED FROM THE SCHOOL!*
Groomed to be Catholic, kicked out of Catholic kindergarten for asking too many Qs, refused to be forced to church at 13yrs. I was born a Progressive Pacifist Humanist, we are born perfect.

You weren’t born with any of those things. When you’re born, you can’t possibly understand any of these concepts in order to actually know whether you identify with them. It’s not possible to be born into any form of belief or non belief.
Basically you were born believing nothing because you couldn’t believe anything.
I honestly think that if the Christian was a Muslim and said the same thing, a lot of people outraged by what this christian guy said would defend the Muslim, and call any critics islamophobic.
and the Christians crying persecution would not see it as persecution when criticising the Muslim
Because Religion is steeped in Tradition! left far left? Tradition of holding up and used and prop up. Someone smarter can explain why.
Why are most atheist tend to be far left
I would like to ask why most Theists are far right? Jesus doesn't appear to be far right.
I don't think most atheists are far left. 🤷🏻♂️ I'd wager most atheists in America are actually liberals. Some are left-leaning progressives, and some are outright leftists (like me). And some are, in fact, straight-up conservatives who vote for Republicans and Libertarians.
I used to be a far right Christian. Now I’m a lefty agnostic/atheist. Just from my experience, I think it’s because atheists know that humanity has the capacity for goodness and decency. We can be good people and work together to reduce suffering, so we gravitate toward causes that are inclusive, that help people in need, that fights for equality and freedom for everyone. We don’t need a dusty collection of writings to tell us to do these things. When I was a Christian, I feared hell, and I projected that fear on anything that wasn’t ‘godly’…so naturally my political leanings wanted to take rights away from anyone who wasn’t like me. That’s the Christian right in a nutshell, IMO
how far is far?
How many atheists do you actually know?
