Teacher tyranny? As a teacher, I can relate. Had a kid in detention who just couldn't understand why I would not give him a lollipop for showing up. Ol' meanie, that's me.

 

[Meriweather]

Imagine all the needless conflicts and controversies that would go away, the wedge issues conservatives use to divide the American people and keep the base angry and headed to the polls, if the tyranny of rightwing Christo-fascism were eliminated:

Abortion

Same-sex marriage

Discrimination against gay and transgender Americans

…just to name a few.

You are aware of those you named (and I am sure others as well) you would also have to eliminate atheists and other non-Christians who don't see it your way?

 

[BreezeWood]

Then what is the purpose of the thread?

they would like to give notice - too bad, the crucifiers will weasel a new look just like they stopped being kkk when the oven got to hot for them ... called the republican party.

 

[Ringtone]

Still waiting for you to explain where God came from

No. We both know what my answer to that disingenuous question is. You're just lying like so many atheists stupidly and shamelessly do as they imply absurdities and evade the obvious, namely, that something has necessarily always existed.

So let's get back to the unanswered question:

You're stupidly implying that all things that exist were created or began to exist.

How could that be, Einstein?

Then state it, sissy.

To be fair, religion and politics have always been one in the same, long before the Christo-fascist right.

Indeed, man created religion as a means of political control, having little to do with things such as faith, belief, or ‘salvation.’

the everlasting need not necessarily be a something. the individual metaphysical forces did create something, in fact everything ... whether collectively or not.

This is still not at the root. The root cause is people are not hermits. We gather.

Liar! Oops, is that a violation of the Zone's rules?

To present a promising indication that the beginning of the end of the tyranny of rightwing Christo-fascism may be at hand; perhaps not during our lifetimes, but eventually.

Believe in God = Fascism? What about Jews, Hindus and Muslims?

 

[ding]

Lowest level in US history and down 10 percent in the last decade

Belief in God in U.S. Dips to 81%, a New Low

Eighty-one percent of U.S. adults say they believe in God, down six percentage points from 2017 and the lowest in Gallup's trend.

If you're trying to tell me that you're as viciously evil as C_Clayton_Jones, stow it. Your derangement is of a different sort.

I think it's impossible to separate religion and politics. They've been the same since the beginning.. consider the snake cults before Adam and Eve.

The flood myth has nothing to do with the identity of the Immaculate Conception. The flood myth is borrowed from Sumer.

The immaculate conception myth was borrowed from the Romulus and Remus story as told by Plato

Mary was born without original sin. She is the immaculate conception. I didn't know about Romulus and Remus. We're they conceived supernaturally?

Yep. The god Mars was their father.

Sorry to interrupt the thread with a possibly dumb question, but what is "*zone 1"? I don't see it as a forum or any explanation.

Sorry to interrupt the thread with a possibly dumb question, but what is "*zone 1"? I don't see it as a forum or any explanation.

I believe it is a heads up that the thread is for civil discourse. Here is a link about it.

Welcome RACE RELATIONS and RELIGION to Zone 1!

You read that right! Zone 1 is expanding, which means some of you are going to need to brush up on how to discuss issues civilly. Race Relations/Racism and Religion & Ethics are now part of Zone 1. Recap of the Forum Rules for Zone 1: Civil discourse is the focus here, regardless of topic...
