Atheists plan protest at Democratic National Convention today

[longship]

34. I beg your pardon. That is decidedly not my fall back.

It is one of my primary positions that:

A. We maintain an entirely secular government which has no voice in what people believe or not.

B. Nothing the government does can either advance or impede the people's right to believe or not as they please.

C. The purpose of any action by the government has to be neutral with regards to belief or no belief.

These are the things enshrined in the Constitution. If you don't agree, than you're wrong. See "Lemon Test" for details.

Personally, I believe that politics, and especially government, mixed with religion is always toxic. See "world history" for details.

I have a cordial relationship with many theists here. I am very tolerant toward other people's religious beliefs. I do not prostelytize my atheism here or anywhere else.

If you disagree with me, so be it. I only ask you that you respect that I must passionately, and hopefully respectfully, continue to defend my stand against these things.
