Religion

(7,796 posts)then you are wrong. The burden of evidence is on you. Perhaps fortunately for you, the standard of evidence doesn't require "proof." Just some sufficiently strong evidence to account for the unlikelihood of the proposal. As you say, you don't have this. So your argument is, honest-to-god, invalid. (Oh, but I know. You have "faith" anyway.)
Second, liberal/progressive Christians will absolutely still be Christians, and be more likely to be on the side of other liberal/progressive Christians rather than on the side of liberal/progressive atheists. It would be stupid, barring extraordinary evidence, to think otherwise.
Finally, people on DU juries absolutely *will* be in a position to see the religious preferences of people's posts when those posts relate to religion, which is the entire fucking point here.
Any more absurd objections?
(Addendum: seriously? Yeah. I've seen a lot of white people in the hellhole in which I currently live talking about the horrors of black American privilege too. Privileged people who are also assholes seem to be like that.)
