Edited on Thu Jul-15-04 11:35 PM by Bleachers7
He said that God only gave us 3%. I can't vote for this guy. We need to get the Jesus freaks out of the White House. Doesn't he know that not everyone believes there is a God? How can he speak on behalf of God? :grr:

3. Uh, it was a rhetorical, secular, political speech
And that "God gave us only 3&" thing was a figure of speech to boot. It was in no way a religious sermon. He just used a popular idiom, that's all.

:hippie: Mellow out, man :hippie:

5. Unfortunately no one cares about atheists but
Kerry will nominate judges and justices that uphold the seperation of church and state.

9. A reader of James Randi's site I see
I'm not atheist, but I definitely love reading his stuff and agree with almost all of it. He's a cool dude.

14. If you want people to REALLY hate atheists,

keep calling yourselves "brights."

It's a lot like calling yourself "saved" because it conveys a message that you are better than others.

20. I agree.
I'm an atheist and I can't stand it when people call themselves "saved". Although I've never heard the term "brights" used before.

17. It doesn't matter
Edited on Fri Jul-16-04 01:16 AM by DaveSZ
He believes in separation of church/state, so that's all that matters.

He will protect all our beliefs or non-beliefs.

19. lol....fooled me
I saw the title. Said "oh no, not another one of these." Then I saw the author. Said to myself "That doesn't sound like Bleachers". Glad you cleared it up right away :)
