[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So many posts here attack organized religion and call it evil and the source of evil in the world. People as recently as yesterday have posted they wish they could ban organized religion.

Why do these posters (atheists, anti-theists) not realize our entire country is based upon religious freedom? They are admitting openly they are in direct opposition of the express wishes of our country’s founders and our constitution and laws? Or do they realize and just don’t care?

Also, if you look at countries that limit religious freedom, you see a pattern of government control that makes said country extremely dangerous and authoritarian to live in, it’s not good. If you think organized religion is evil, why are the countries that limit or basically outlaw religion such terrible places to live?

If you are an atheist or anti- theist who thinks organized religion is evil, and you would like to ban organized religion, how do you feel about our forefathers (who thought religious freedom was extremely important) and the emphasis our laws place on religious freedom and liberty? [/quote]

Easy.  You try to cram it down the throats of everyone else.  If there is freedom of religion then there is also freedom from religion.  Have your religion but stop preaching to rest of society.[/quote]

You have the right to not have the government establish a religion; you don’t have the right to be free from seeing or hearing or coming into contact with other Americans practicing their religion. [/quote]
