Athiests...
I'm puzzled by atheists. For people who supposedly believe in nothing they sure believe that Christians need to be silenced, don't they? Well, everyone believes in something. I believe in God, specifically I'm a Christian. A Christian, in the broadest sense of the word, is one who believes Jesus Christ was sent by God to die for our sins and that Jesus did die for our sins. Dig deeper and there are a lot of variations on the theme. Atheists believe in nothing. At least that's the story they tell.
So you might say, "What's so puzzling to you Hobie?" Well let me try to explain. Atheists are worried that Christians (and presumably other religionists after the Christians are eliminated/silenced) are trying to force their ideas on them. But it matters not at all that they are trying to force their ideas on Christians. They do it all the time with trying to remove the Ten Commandments from this or that place, eliminate crosses in public places, even to writing books and making movies that promote the atheist idea (dare I say atheist belief?).
The biggest thing right now as spotlighted by "The Golden Compass" and "Expelled" is that atheists are trying to force everyone to believe as they do (did I just say an atheist believes?) whether it is simply to reject Christianity (why is it they don't worry so much about Islam?) or to actively support what is now called "Darwinism". I find that interesting.
Only in this country supposedly "dominated" by Christians can atheists freely express their views. In Muslim countries they'd likely be silenced (and that would be the least of their worries). So, again, why is it I'm such a threat?
