the atheists should be thankful that they have somewhat of free speech.
It's interesting that if it wasn't for the goodness that Christians acquire through their religion they would be denying free speech to all those who didn't believe in a god. Just think; atheists are able to extend this same right to everyone without the benefit of a religion. I guess they should be thankful your religion recognizes that it's followers have to be taught to be good.the atheists should be thankful that they have somewhat of free speech.
I saw the sign. It celebrates nothing. It mocks people of faith and nothing more.
Someone saw fit to remove it.
It mocks Christianity in the same way that the nativity scene mocks non-Christians. It's an expression of an idea, nothing more. How many times have we seen Christians take shots at atheism and atheists, saying they're immoral and untrustworthy? That's rude, and yet the Christians have no problem saying these things.
And I'm getting sick of Christians acting like victims every time something like this happens. In a world where Christianity is one of the most widespread religions, and certainly the most powerful religion in America, and there are churches on just about every corner, and when so many shops are closed on Sunday because of that commandment about keeping the Sabbath holy, I don't see how Christians can act so victimised so much.
We atheists are much more victimised than you guys are.
Man, why so much intolerance for Christians?

Probably because of their intolerance for everyone else (or, to be fair, the intolerance of the nation's most visible christians)?
That statement seethes with hypocrisy...
