Genesis1315
Ladies
Ahhh, yes, we may want to convert the world, but at least we are not blowing people up right now because God told us too. (please do not mention the Crusades in response to this, I know that they existed. On behalf of those involved, I apologize for the mistakes that were made.)
Regarding the pledge, If someone does not like the phrase, one nation, Under God, then here is the simple response, Don't say it. It is not like we are trying to insert into the Pledge, one nation, unified through Jesus Christ, with Liberty, justice and hope for the rapture for all.
Looking at things from an objective point of view, I really see atheism being pushed down my throat more so than Christianity being promoted anywhere. A minister cannot pray in Jesus' name, lest he offend someone by praying as he believes. In fact, he would even have to sacrifice his beliefs in the one true and living God to make sure that no one is offended. How many times are Christians censured for stating their beliefs in a speech, yet, the ACLU or whomever will defend a person's rights not have any reference to God anywhere. Note, I metioned God, not Jesus.
I will admit, I do not know a lot about Leland. What I do know is that Atheism is as much a religion as Christianity.
