as an athiest i would say that the ONLY reason christians don't kill me is because of the secular moral system introduced despite christianitys
plees, threats and underhanded politik... when you look at it that way kinda makes sense why we don't want to see the world revert to theistic law
again.
Athieism was a crime in england in my grandmothers lifetime! Sure i don't think many people were getting killed for it while she was alive, her
grandmother though? and every grandmother right back to around 500ad when that wicked pope came to convert us. Even heretics within the church have
been traditionally burned, JUST LIKE THE BIBLE SAYS.
Once again, the only reason i am able to hold any view i like is because of secular moral theory - if the world goes back to christian dogmatic law,
biblical literalism, etc then the likes of us athiests will be rounded up and burned - i don't want my grandchildren to live in the world my great
grandmother did where even Deists had trouble if they dared expose their belief.
however yes of course i believe anyone can belive anything they want, its not that easy though because they're trying to teach kids about 6000year
old earths, ban stem cell research, etc, etc, etc. also its a regressive way of thinking that causes pain and suffering not only to the people who
believe in it but to those around them and society as a whole, i believe most religions to be more dangerous than alcohol, drugs or almost anything
else.
