Militant atheists should 'get over it' and accept UK is Christian

[PoliticalNick]

Not too sure about this. I didn't realize a landmass with imaginary lines as borders could have any beliefs let alone a formal religion. How does an island of that size fit into a church anyway?

Enough fun.... It is a prime example of how ineffective and totally undesirable democracy really is and fully demonstrates that democracy is nothing but 'mob-rule' where 51% of the people can trample the rights of the other 49%.....or in Canada with our ridiculous laws for elections and parliament where 43% can trample the rights of the other 57%. Gotta love our system :roll:

The only rights being trampled here, is the right of a Christian to say a prayer. The minority is trampling the majority rights by demanding that something as innocuous as a prayer not be said.

The man is right. You, or any other atheist don't like it, then move the fu ck out of Britain, or don't move there. Personally, I'm tired of the fu cking atheists tellling me what I can and can't do and where I can and can't do it.

Exactly how we feel about the jesus freeks.

The Church of England is the one true faith.

ROFLMFAO
That is stupid even from you.

As long as you and your ilk were barred from my green and pleasant land, I won't care what impact it has on you.

If I were in charge, anti-white, anti-Church of England atheists would be offski, pronto. I wouldn't mess about.




Allowing Christians to practise their religion in a Christian nation, defying the wishes of the PC, atheist minority, is "intolerance", is it?

No body much gives a flyin fuk if you pray to a pile of dead ants. As long as you don't try to force your whacked out views on everyone else and let them pray to whatever they want to. or not as the case may be.

 

[Tecumsehsbones]

No, just tired of atheist groups telling us what we can do and when we can do it.

Should give you some notion how non-Christians feel about your (by which I mean Christians) long history of writing Christian notions into the laws.

 

[Twila]

I wonder if there is a way for both Christians and Athiests to have what they want.

Clearly dialogue between the 2 groups is difficult. Is it even possible for a side to see things from the others perspective and respect that?

 

[petros]

An atheist preaching from the podium really isn't really an atheist are they? They aren't really mad at people who believe but mad at God for something that happened in their lives.

Of course there is. Simply ignore the 3% of grievance-addicted wackaloons on both sides and get on with your lives.

Of course it is, unless you are one of the aforementioned 3%. And if it wasn't for this, they'd be shrieking about something else.

Among my circle of aquaintances I have Christians, Muslims, Jews, Buddhists, Hindus, Taoists, Wiccans, agnostics, atheists, Republicans, Democrats, Socialists, Libertarians, and lots of independents. I also have every colour in the spectrum from sunburn-in-10-seconds-under-a-20-watt-bulb white to the kind of deep black only a few African peoples have. Women and men, gay, straight, bi, transgendered, celibate, and furry.

What I don't have are chronic malcontents. There's enough of those here.

They don't believe in god, how can they be mad at something they don't believe in? Maybe you mean an agnostic?

Hmmmmm, strange. I know a lot of atheists that complain about what God has and hasn't done. Seems an odd thing to do when one doesn't believe in something. I know I don't believe in ghosts and have never complained about what they supposedly have done or do.

You're fortunate. You have a talent of excellent communication. I wonder if this 3% are lacking in the ability to verbalize and listen (not just hear) what the rest of the world is speaking about.

I often hear on the news about various groups of people who say they feel that they are not being listened to. This has me wondering if people have mistaken the meaning of listened. It sounds like they are complaining that what ever it was they wanted changed didn't change and therefore they weren't heard.

That is a noble sentiment and achievable.
Non-believers could be taken on Icelandic exursions in search of hidden folk - elves and gnomes, or to British dingly dells to look for faeries.
Dyed-in-the-wool believers could be taught refresher courses in mathematics and the sciences.
Convergence is possible.

They just say they don't to try and make them feel better about themselves.

Bad things happen so it becomes God's fault but the forget to credit all the amazing things that are good which truly do come from God rather than circumstance.

God never said He gave a sh*t about your flesh, only your soul but nobody listens.

 

[EagleSmack]

Again, Christians had their day; it could be worse, at least nothing won't get you beheaded because you disagree with the different version of nothing you follow.

Now THAT is Farging Funny!

Which nicely balances the imbeciles who insist that everything good is an undeserved blessing from Gawd, but everything bad is our own fault.

 

[Twila]

oh, fake athiests...like the fake christians. I never actually contemplated that there could be fake athiests.

Maybe the athiests and christians aren't actually faking their beliefs. Maybe it's just trying the hat on and seeing if it fits. That would explain the hypocracy of placing blame on something you don't believe in.

How can somebody not appreciate life?

Listen up you deluded, brainwashed, mental midget. The christians invaded a country where there were already multiple pagan religions, Druids & Picts etc. Therefore it should be the cristians and any other religious group that came after who get the f*ck out of my country. You don't have to visit or move there if you don't want to.

BTW, nobody is telling you what to believe or how to pray to that imaginary dude in the clouds, what is being restricted is where you can play your holier-than-thou games and your ability to force your beliefs onto others. That my peanut-brained friend is called freedom. I could care less what mystical unicorn type being you believe exists to help give meaning to your life, all I ask is that you don't care what I believe either!

And every 17th of March they celebrate a Welshman for eradicating the Druid and Pagan "snakes" from their last hold out in Ireland.

Bullshyte, Nobody is "forcing" shyte on you. You don't need to pray when others are. Just like you don't have to sing the national anthem if you don't want to. Your kind, though, are taking away the freedom of those that don't believe what you believe.

Many a depressed person will ask "How can you appreciate this life"

Not always. I think that there is some confusion between what an athiest is and what an agnostic is.
