Makes a counter balance to all the religious signs polluting the landscape, although I don't like the idea of any signs polluting the landscape.

And if Jesus loves us, why doesn't Gopher have a rich wife?

Depends upon how you measure wealth now does it not?

The Pope arrives in heaven, where St. Peter awaites him. St. Peter asks who he is.

The Pope: "I am the pope."

St. Peter: "Who? There's no such name in my book."

The Pope: "I'm the representative of God on Earth."

St.Peter: "Does God have a representative? He didn't tell me ..."

The Pope: "But I am the leader of the Catholic Church ..."

St. Peter: "The Catholic church ... Never heard of it ... Wait, I'll check with the boss."

St. Peter walks away through Heaven's Gate to talk with God.

St. Peter: "There's a dude standing outside who claims he's your representative on earth."

God: "I don't have a representative on earth, not that I know of ... Wait, I'll ask Jesus." (yells for Jesus)

Jesus: "Yes father, what's up?"

God and St. Peter explain the situation.

Jesus: "Wait, I'll go outside and have a little chat with that fellow."

Ten minutes pass and Jesus reenters the room laughing out loud. After a few minutes St. Peter asks Jesus why he's laughing.

Jesus: "Remember that fishing club I started about 2000 years ago? It still exists!"

You should realize that the reason you think atheists are anti christian, is because you are approaching it from a Christian point of view.
Since a few of the atheists that haunt this joint defend Islam, virulently. I don't think you need to be looking at it from a Christian POV.

An opinion? Perhaps - Do you think a Muslim could arrive at the same conclusion in Canada?

Most of the religious on here are just paranoid. If someone else's opinion threatens them, their faith is built on quicksand. True faith is unassailable. Faith should not depend on anybody else's support.

Opinion? LOL...

I love a good old fashioned troll as much as the next troll, but even I don't buy the usual onslaught of calculated offense, directed at the sites Christians, as mere opinion.

Again a generalization poisoned/shaped by you belief in the Matrix. How many persons with Religious beliefs on this Forum meet your standard?

Hell, most atheists don't. Their non beliefs are just as shaky if they need to continually attack others. And no, my opinions on faith are based on my own faith.

They are not threatened - Perhaps offended by repeated insults would be appropriate?

Do you not notice that there is an equal amount of crap thrown at them by the religious? People in glass houses shouldn't throw sh!t. I can see it because I don't have a stake in either side.

Ya, I've noticed that. It doesn't surprise me, when almost every Christian themed thread, turns into a shyte fest. Right after the obligatory dumping upon some Christian event, holiday or what have you.

I can see it because I don't have a stake in either side.
That's funny, because I don't have a stake in it either, but I don't see it quite the way you do.

Do you mean 'would a muslim arrive at the conclusion that atheists are anti'muslim'? Well, yes. It sort of goes without saying, doesn't it?

Although generally atheists aren't 'anti' whatever, you can believe whatever the fuk you want to believe, I'm not going to stop you.

Since a few of the atheists that haunt this joint defend Islam, virulently. I don't think you need to be looking at it from a Christian POV.

If an atheist defends a religion, they aren't an atheist, are they?

If they defend someone's right to believe in a religion, that's fine.

That's funny, because I don't have a stake in it either, but I don't see it quite the way you do.

But you do have a hatred/fear of muslims. I don't know, and don't care, how you feel about other religions, just pointing out your record. Although I know it means you'll hurl insults my way, because that's what you do.

I didn't call them atheists, they did.

If they defend someone's right to believe in a religion, that's fine.
If that's what they do, sure. But it isn't.

But you do have a hatred/fear of muslims. I don't know, and don't care, how you feel about other religions, just pointing out your record. Although I know it means you'll hurl insults my way, because that's what you do.
Your baiting aside, no I don't have a hatred/fear of Muslims. I have a healthy distrust of organized religions.

Well you have thrown your fair share have you not?
