The bible and religion have been so watered down by hypocrites that it is not Important any more. What did Christianity do when priests were molesting little boys. They covered it up. They paid off.
    Religion is a business.
    To claim a mockery of Christ's teachings upon Christ himself is just bigotry, dude.

    A church cannot rape anyone. Individuals in that church have raped children. Some have also beaten up people, threatened them with torture (and even carried it out), but you cannot blame the act of individuals upon the entire church or its members.

    Lumping all religions and all people of those religions as the act of a few people is bigotry, dude.

    Of course you can. The Pope is running a criminal enterprise. Are you even remotely familiar with the issue?

    Are you even remotely able to understand what bigotry is?

    Raping children and covering it up is racketeering. Please tell me you don't support sexually assaulting children by priests.

    The atheists I know tend to be much more accepting and tolerant than the “Christians” I know.

    None of these rights are absolute. You do not have an absolute right to kill people who want to take you into custody.

    This right to enforce laws is not just a right of the government, but also a benefit to the people. If we give you an absolute right to kill anyone who tries to enforce the law, we are taking away the right to live in a safe society from everyone else.



    It really does not specifically recognize this right, nor would it.
    Into the Night is a trolling halfwit. That’s why I have him on ignore.

    atheism is just an excuse to be stupid in public......
    Isaiah 6:5
    “Woe to me!” I cried. “I am ruined! For I am a man of unclean lips, and I live among a people of unclean lips, and my eyes have seen the King, the Lord Almighty.”

    Atheism tends to be an admission that one is not rooted in anything, and thus is useless for all practical purposes.
    I choose my own words like the Americans of olden times........before this dystopia arrived.
