Your vision of the religious right is a cartoon, like most of your thoughts. We don't elect atheists because we are still largely a Christian nation. Reagan was a Christian btw. Atheism is represented by a very small minority and most of who isn't a Christian still believes in some kind of creator. Few are willing to embrace the 'it just happened on its' own' religion, which is primarily an anti-Christian movement anyway. Sorry about your butt hurt.Remember when America didn't want to elect a Catholic? I didn't like that even though I'm not a catholicI don't understand your first sentence.I defend Islam because we aren't a Christian nation.I find I find it odd that a lot of the people who regularly and quite viciously lay into Christianity on this board, constantly excuse Islam. Some of them can't even bring themselves to condemn their worst excesses. It is sooooo odd.If there were a group of Muslims here is let them have it.No. You attack Christianity because you're too scared to attack Islam. Cowardice is the worst of all traits in atheists who give Islam a pass.
And I don't want to import any more Muslims into this country.
If you can't be a Muslim you can't be an atheist and I like the freedom.
As to the second, I'm only referring to critiquing Islam, not outlawing it. And why would atheists who freely criticise Christianity at every opportunity feel any need to defend Islam?
Today, Americans would rather elect a pot smoking philandering politician than an atheist. See the pattern?
Someone's religion should not be a factor. It's personal.
I just heard the religious right is giving up on trying to get a religious candidate elected. They're going with trump.
Remember the religious right chose Reagan over Carter? Carter was a born again and Reagan had been divorced.
