Time for me to put on a BarlowGirl album and tackle some Christophobic ignorance!
"Angrychair" is such a hypocritical bigot, and as the OP observed, he most definitely was talking out of both sides of his mouth. He talks about how he himself is "Openly hostile" towards religion and wants to see all religion "Crushed out of existence," then in his very next entry has the gall to say that atheists "Have tried to be accommodating and tolerant" (Try telling that to any Christian who's had to live in a Communist/ Socialist nation).
btw, his comment on how people (By which you can tell he specifically means Christians) should keep their religious beliefs completely to themselves has two BIG problems:
1. First and foremost, that would completely violate their right to Freedom of Religion, which specifically bans "Prohibiting the free exercise" of their beliefs. It would also violate their right to Freedom of Speech.
2. What about church and other such worship services? Those necessitate leaving the home and being in a more public setting.
Oh, and how is "Climate change" caused by evangelical Christians? I can kind of see "Health care," as he is almost certainly among the crowd that believes women aborting their babies purely for the sake of their own convenience to be a form of "Health care," but I can't think of any way it causes "Climate change."
"Their religion now dominates every aspect of our lives: culture, politics, education, science and business are all unduly influenced by their religion."
Well, considering that our nation was founded by Christians, and on Christian principles, and is the religion that the majority of Americans practice, that shouldn't be too surprising.
"I've given up at this point. I'm trying as hard as I can to relocate outside the US."
Need some help packing? One less obnoxious bigot in our country is always a good thing.
freedumb2003b got it perfectly right, especially when it comes to this DUmmy; He hates God, because God loves us enough that He doesn't want us to destroy ourselves morally and thus gives us commandments and guidelines to follow to help us better walk with Him. Also, though he doesn't realize it, his "Climate change to health care" comment reveals another reason why he hates God; Because Christianity gets in the way of him and his fellow atheists achieving their twisted political goals. Christians oppose many of the demented goals that liberal atheists have (i.e. Widespread celebration of every kind of perversion, the sexualization of children at increasingly younger ages, rampant abortion on demand up to and even AFTER birth, full legalization of all drugs, etc.). They've got to tear down what they see as "The old, bad world" in order to bring about their nightmarish "Brave new world," and believe the first thing to destroy to that end is anything which involves the God they hate so vehemently.
