Very distrubing, what what these people are saying about atheist. Only smith is saying anything nice about athiest. But he still says some nasty things him self, like this is a chirstian nation.
How is saying that this is a christian nation equivalent to saying nasty things about atheists?
If I was to say "this is a white nation" how would people of other colors feel?
Saying the US is a "Christian nation" implies other religious, or the lack thereof, are not welcome nor citizens. It also implies the nation is based on Christianity and only for Christians.
You are completely and totally full of crap.
It says that this nation is predominately christian, which is true.
OK. Walk up to the nearest black guy and inform him that this is a "White Nation." Hell, wear that saying on a T-Shirt.
See what happens.
When you phrase something as such, you imply it defines it. Christian does NOT define the US. The correct saying would be "The US is a religiously free nation."
Race doesn't equate because you can not choose your race.
Irrelevant. You claim the US can be labeled a "Christian Nation" simply because the majority are Christian. Choice has nothing to do with it. What is in the majority does.
That means you can label the US according to ANY majority.
Therefore, according to your logic, "White Nation" is valid.
What is funny is the fact that you are trying to wiggle out of that now, because you see how absurd and offensive it is.
Just capitulate and move on.
