How to outlaw Christianity (Step 1)

This past week an ABC News debate aired on "Nightline," which pitted

popular theists against Internet atheists. While I'll have more to say

about that battle of wits in my next article, it testifies to the

growing number (30 million Americans) of those who profess there is no

God. Add to that what I believe is possibly three times the number of

functional atheists, those who believe in a God but practically don't

show it, and America is facing a new religious horizon in which

atheism is becoming a formidable foe.

Though the majority of Americans continue to claim to be Christians, a

Gallup poll discovered 45 percent of us would support an atheist for

president. Such a survey is a clear indication that the secularization

of society is alive and well.

The opponents of God

Once upon a time, years ago, it seemed that the only major fire for

atheism burned from the anti-Christian work of Madelyn Murray O'Hair

and the American Atheist organization, whose claim to fame was the

banning of prayer and Bible reading in public schools in 1963.

Today many more antagonist groups and individuals to theism abound,

and they are using every means possible for global proliferation -

from local government to the World Wide Web. Such secular progressives

include the Institute for Humanist Studies, Secular Coalition of

America, American Atheists, American Humanist Association, Internet

Infidels, the Atheist Alliance International, Secular Student

Alliance, Society for Humanistic Judaism, Freedom From Religion

Foundation, Military Association of Atheists and Freethinkers, etc. Of

course no list of atheistic advocates would be complete without

mentioning the ACLU and Planned Parenthood, as well as the anti-God

militancy of men like Richard Dawkins and Sam Harris.

Though the U.S. Constitution outlaws religious discrimination, these

organizations and individuals would love nothing more than to help

society look with distain upon Christianity and, ultimately, make its

components illegal. In fact, right now, they are coalescing and

rallying at least 5 million of their troops to mount counter

offensives to Christianity.

For that reason I believe theistic patriots need to be wise to

atheists' overt and covert schemes, exposing their agenda and fighting

to lay waste to their plans.

Step 1: Initiate restrictions and legislation against theism and

Christianity

In God we bust

For these liberal groups to win the war of ideological dominance, they

know they must minimize the effects of Christianity, which many are

doing (unbeknownst to others) behind the scenes through lobbying and

legislation. In fact, two significant actions occurred on the National

Day of Prayer just two weeks ago!

The London Telegraph noted that, while American Christians were

praying across the land on the National Day of Prayer, atheists were

petitioning the Texas Legislature against the civic display of the

words, "In God We Trust."

Eroding and erasing theistic language in culture is a growing trend.

Earlier this year George Washington dollar coins were not only

inscribed with the words "In God We Trust" on their edges, but many

excluded them entirely! Such minting modifications are a flagrant

defiance against theism and a public reflection of the place God is

now relegated - to the fringes of society.

Secularists of course have made repeated attempts to rid "under God"

from "The Pledge of Allegiance." Thank God the Legislature of Texas is

moving along a bill to include the words in our state pledge: "Honor

the Texas flag; I pledge allegiance to thee, Texas, one state under

God and indivisible." I was also grateful to read in the Dallas

Morning News May 1 that the House also embraced legislation "that

seeks to clarify the rights of Texas public school students to offer

public prayers at football games or graduation, hand out religious

messages or hold religious meetings during the school day if they

want."

Another example of atheistic advocacy can be found in the 10,000-

member Freedom from Religion Foundation initiation of a Supreme Court

case, which asserts that President Bush's faith-based initiatives pose

a violation of the wall of separation between church and state.

Atheists also received a proverbial shot in the arm by locating a

representative and advocate of sorts in Rep. Pete Stark, D-Calif., who

"is the first member of Congress - and the highest-ranking elected

official in the country - to make known that he is a nontheist."

His election stands in stark contrast to the wishes of our Founding

Fathers, who encouraged American citizens to vote Christians into

public office. As John Jay, the first chief justice of the United

States, wrote to Jedidiah Morse on Feb. 28, 1797, "Providence has

given to our people the choice of their rulers. And it is the duty as

well as the privilege and interest, of a Christian nation to select

and prefer Christians for their rulers."

The tyranny of the state over the church

The other legal disgrace that occurred on the National Day of Prayer

was that Congress passed what might become one of the most religiously

restrictive pieces of legislation in history: H.R. 1592, "The Local

Law Enforcement Hate Crimes Prevention Act." With Senate approval,

this bill will expand the law against such hate crimes, allowing

federal funds and other resources to assist local law enforcement to

deter and punish acts of violence committed against an individual

because of the victim's race, religion, gender identity, sexual

orientation, etc.

While the bill purports to target crimes of brutality, not speech, it

could very easily end up (even inadvertently) restricting First

Amendment rights of Christians to speak freely against such anti-

biblical practices as homosexuality and transvestitism. As Janet

Folger, the author of "Criminalizing Christianity," has pointed out,

"H.R. 1592 isn't about hate. It isn't about crime. It's about

silencing our speech."

As with other laws of this type, once enacted, local justices could

easily expand its interpretive enforcement to encompass a wider

meaning than originally conceived. Once enforced, what would stop a

clergy from being accused as an accessory to a hate crime, after he

preached to his church on Sunday about the woes of same-sex marriage

and discovered on Monday one of his congregants got in a fight with a

homosexual co-worker as a result of a moral altercation? The fact is,

if the hate-crime bill passes, pastors could easily become pulpit

partners in crime.

I agree with Rev. Henry Jackson, who said the law would "mandate

unequal protection under the law and will pave the way for

criminalization of thoughts and religious beliefs contrary to

politically correct ideas."

Hate-crime laws are not only a violation of our First Amendment rights

to freedom of speech and religion, but a violation of the 10th

Amendment's limitations on the power of federal government.

Hang together or hang separately?

Thank God our president's senior advisers have gone on record that

they will advise him to veto the bill if it reaches the doors of the

White House. We, too, must follow his lead by speaking up and taking a

stand against this unnecessary and unconstitutional bill - and any

others like it. Just as atheists are gathering to combat God, we

patriots must come together to sustain the godly heritage we've been

handed. As Benjamin Franklin said, "We must all hang together, or most

assuredly we will all hang separately."

I urge you to write the president and your representatives today to

encourage the overturning of this ungodly, religiously restricting and

unconstitutional piece of legislation, erroneously titled by the

misnomer, "Hate Crimes Prevention Act."

Stay tuned next Monday when I give the second half of this treatise,

"How to outlaw Christianity (steps 2 & 3)," in which I will also

convey one of the most shocking, despicable atheistic tactics I've

ever seen.

How to outlaw Christianity (Steps 2 & 3)

C.S. Lewis, the former atheist and famous Oxford scholar, once said,

"Atheism turns out to be too simple. If the whole universe has no

meaning, we should never have found out that it has no meaning. ..."

There are a myriad of eminent scholars (like Lewis) who understand the

folly of atheism. I will list a few others in this second part of my

treatise to expose atheists' agenda to ban Christianity from the

courts of culture. In my last article I discussed "step 1" of their

plan. In this discourse I will address steps 2 and 3.

Step 2: Target younger generations with atheism

Atheists are making a concerted effort to win the youth of America and

the world. Hundreds of websites and blogs on the Internet seek to

convince and convert adolescents, endeavoring to remove any residue of

theism from their minds and hearts by packaging atheism as the choice

of a new generation. While you think your kids are innocently surfing

the Web, secular progressives are intentionally preying on their

innocence and na

WRONG!!! (Buzz).

It shows the fact that there are plenty of people who don't by into your

fairy tales and fantasies because there is NO evidenece to support them.

Add to that what I believe is possibly three times the number of

"functional atheists"? Why is it that these right wing fanatic must keep

inventing new cliches and strawmen?

Atheism is a foe to fanatical religon as Jews were a foe to the Third Reich.

Such a survey is clear evidence that, despite attempts, by religious

zealots, to eliminate rational thinking (and, in some cases, thinking all

together), there are peoeple who value a person's worth by what he does -

not by what he bellows.

Don't exist - because tehre is no valid evidence that your god exists.

You cannot be an opponent to somoething that doesn't exist.

WRONG! Buzz.

Madelyn was not an anti-christian. She just wanted the original justice and

freedom that this nation was founded on; which put her at odds with the

right wing fanatical, and insane, christiant lunatics.

WRONG!!! Buzz

More "defenders of the freedom" who would STOP outrageous religous

fanaticism from taking over OUR Democracy!

(too much bull shit to handle .... my toilet's clogged again .......snip!)

"How to ruin, and eventually outlaw, any Democracy"!

Mix government and religon.
