Explain to her that even if she is a virulent atheist, she will not be culturally literate or able to understand modern laws,  the development of our western modern justice system, cultural norms in the US, the development of universal puplic education, public works/poverty services (driven by Christians), civil rights (driven by Christians) the anti slavery movement (driven by Christians), and much of the US hospital system (created mostly by Christians, specifically Catholics) without an understanding of Christianity, Christian philosophy,  Christian social teaching, and the Bible.

Atheists' main claim to fame is that they are more enlightened and focus on truths and science, unburdened by myths, rituals, and superstitions of those pesky religious people.

The answer to that is any atheist without a solid knowlege base of the Bible, Christianity, Christian history and Christian moral teachings is completely ignorant, completely unenlightened, terribly uninformed, and lacking rudimentary education.

Someone certainly has a high opinion of herself.  Pride goeth before destruction, and a haughty spirit before a fall.[/quote]

What is haughty about saying, okay, you are an atheist, so at least be an educated, historically literate atheist with a basic understanding of how Christianity shaped our modern western society, literature, arts, science, medicine, architecture, social services, universal education, civil rights, western intellectual inquiry and the concept of freedom and individual rights.[/quote]

That's not what you said at all.  You said a non-Christian is not able to understand modern laws, the development of our western modern justice system, cultural norms in the US, the development of universal "puplic education", public works, civil rights, the anti-slavery movement, or much of the US hospital system.   This is a slanderous lie.  And it's bigoted (it's certainly antisemitic for one).[/quote]

I think a lot of this stuff is just White supremacy, nationalism, and colonialism disguised by representing it as Christianity, religions don’t do things, people do, since they cant open about those beliefs, sorry not sorry. And of course there’s probably an anti-non Christian element too.[/quote]
