One is always more powerful when one has a “God” on ones side. There are no happy endings. Only pauses in the fighting.

“…three-fourths of Americans believe the Bible to be the word of God”

I’m pretty sure that number is far off. And even so, that does not necessarily mean they all endorse literal interpretations.

Yes, it is all in how the question is asked in the survey.

I’m a bit annoyed at this, I have to take exception to Jeffrey Tayler’s article…even though I’m an atheist, I can’t be an “antitheist”.

I have no problem with people who believe in a religion, as long as their beliefs don’t interfere with the rights of others, why should I? And I do have experience with what Aslan calls antitheists, and almost every one of them believes that all religion is pure evil (though usually Islam gets an extra dose of hatred).

And…bizarrely, I seem to notice they are well represented in the worst parts of politics (gamergaters, MRAs, “race-realists”, Dark Enlightenment and on and on…).

So, if I had the choice between being under a government full of secularist christians…or being under anti-theists, I’d take the christians.

I have difficulty with labels, new and old.

WE seem to be recycling old memes and reinventing the wheel when we don’t know enough history or philosophy to reference past memes.

I’m going to stick with WHACKO™
