I happily pointed out to them that this was fine and that if the gay groups or atheist groups didn't like their new members they could simply reject official recognition (and it's benefits) and operate in an environment where they could choose their members. Just like what happened to Mike Adams' coterie of clowns.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12265815775752594908noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3381224391260954323.post-34141530593927350152010-07-03T18:54:28.212-07:002010-07-03T18:54:28.212-07:00Soothsayer,

This is exactly what has happened with respect to proposition 8. Every free-thinking human being be should be fighting religious extremisim wherever it rears its ugly head. As I have been saying for years, there isn't any difference between our Muslim friends and our religoius right friends; excepting, of oucrse, their standard of living. If our standard of living ever deteriorates then, believe me, free-thinkers, progressives, gays, etc. will not be able to get to the border quickly enough.Steve Thomasnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3381224391260954323.post-42729595330628570792010-07-02T19:09:38.037-07:002010-07-02T19:09:38.037-07:00I disagree with you on one point.

Of course I do agree that they will be welcomed into the group, if for no other reason than amusement but people like Mike scare me. What's next on his list, bombs?

If religions would adopt a live-and-let-live philosophy, I'd have no issue with it at all.<br /><br />Unfortunately, the inexorable forces of memetic evolution (the topic of The Religion Virus) guarantees that the most obnoxious beliefs (and the churches that espouse them) survive, whereas the moderate beliefs (memes) die out.Craig A.

Most religious believers see it as their duty to correct the rest of us heathens. I think California's Proposition 8 is a perfect example. Whereas the typical atheist believes that one's sexual orientation or lifestyle is none of their concern; the average religious person sees it as their duty to correct other's "wickedness." This is why, in my strongest opinion, believe that religion does not have any place in a progressive, modern society.Steve Thomasnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3381224391260954323.post-36044151483442529132010-07-01T17:14:27.981-07:002010-07-01T17:14:27.981-07:00awesome, I see a future filled with many more de-c...awesome, I see a future filled with many more de-converted normal people...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
