What makes an atheist so scary

[Joshua-777]

That should never happen. Unless he was harassing his fellow employees about it, there should be no reason to dismiss him for a personal belief.

Well it did, and it happens alot more than many realize, What it is, liberal rights, affecting freedom of speach and religion. Now, if someone says homosexuality is wrong, they are automaticly a biggot, homophobic, and a gay basher, when saying that it is a sin, is just stating beliefe. Rights of others, affect the rights of others. If it where at a true balance, it should be directed in general religion, not society vs. Christianity.

[Joshua-777]

do not kill" was thought up long before Christianity. It is much more of a general people(secular) value.

Actualy the first was the jews, moses, you know the ten commandments story? and if you don't agree that was the first, than find culture history proving it different, cause If I'm wrong on that I would like to know. from adam to Moses is the first example, other religions, around that time, baal was worshiped, and many would sacrifice their first born to it. In other cultures there was a history of human sacrifice around that time. Now it is a moral value, thats culteral, but in some cultures Murder is a practice.

Can I get some reputable info on the teaching of muslim prayer in CA schools? (It doesn't count if it is in either a religion or cultural studies class.

I'll try to find info on it, I heard it on the radio when I was in california, It was a religion class, but still does not give the right to make children learn and recite muslim prayers.

Evolution = science / Creation = religion I have no problem studying creationism in a religion class. It is just that evolution is a product of science and that is why it is taught in science classes. It is the same reason that the quadratic formula is taught in math classes

actualy science is based on fact, and obserbable evidence, Evolution contradicts science by the very laws of science, but I've been in that debate for too long, lol

What are you talking about? How do you teach honesty? What does that have to do with swearing on a book?

Moral values upheld in society, honestly, alot of our society is actualy against common morals, we live in a country where a teenage girl can go across state lines, and have an abortion without parental concent. NOw, Honestly I feel is morals where more upheld, as well as family values, it would produce more of a better moral enviorment and society. It's useless to swear on a book period.
