Re: No right response.
quote:
Well, the right is not responding...so I'll post what I'm getting at here. I assumed (I know assuming makes an ass out of you and me) that the right's response would be to not want someone of a different faith in office because they would be worshiping a false God, and be unable to hold up american ideals. But to an atheist every God is just as false as another. So by the same logic that they would not want someone in office praying to mecca three times a day, so an atheist does not want a Christian in office seeking a direction for this country from their God. This is all I was getting at. If the right wants to give an answer as to why someone of the islamic faith should be denied office, and a christian should be granted office...that could be interesting.
So really, the intention of the post was to find someone dumb enough to post their thoughts, if those thoughts pertained to bigotry, and then have at them, ensuring your place in this electronic community here at evc as a person who might be good at debating? Frankly, I think this is a horrible way to start discussions, please tell me about your thoughts on the conservative population in America, for that is what you wanted to put on display, so maybe evcers like NosyNed, and jar could sit back and chuckle. I don't appreciate the bringing out of a group of individuals for chuckles. These feelings of superiority to the religious right, tell me that productive disscussions cannot be attained by talking with you, now that isn't what you wanted is it? Of course not.
It's funny that you still seek these conversations with some guy living in a bayou, it grants you satisfaction to watch someone be "shut down" on an online forum, that's sick.

Re: No right response.
I'm sure your aware of the "holy wars" known as the Crusades.
Finding historical events as evidence are very easy to refute, when one looks back a bit further at the probable mentality of the "pirates" who practiced Islam.
