Thanks, Mike, for a very cogent post. Sadly, it is (in general) Christians who behave in the most un-Christlike way towards those of no religious belief and of different religious beliefs. and why Atheists and non-Christians MUST have Christianity forced on them in the guise of patriotism simply eludes me. Perhaps if it was a mandate for the rest of us to "convert" all those loud Christians,,,,eeewww, never mind.

This makes at least as much sense.
Donovan,
I agree that there are a great number of Christians that are not out to do harm, and just want to be left alone and want to leave atheists alone. Unfortunately, that is not the case for most Christians.
Many Christians ridicule atheists. Attack them as people. Make fun of their lack of belief in God as equivocal to that of children believing in the Easter Bunny. But also want to bring real harm by the elimination and change of US Culture to insert God and replace the Constitution with the Bible as the head of all authority. They want to tax, and consequently, shut down anyone that disagrees with them.
Christianity not only brings a cultural breakdown of basic American Values and Traditions, but at its very core promotes the principles of insanity.
Many Atheists want the 20+% of the people that don't believe in God to bow down to them, and say "Merry Christmas", "God Bless you", or "One Nation Under God".
They don't care that 20+% of Americans are offended that God is forced into their daily lives. Nobody is barring Christians from church, or to be buried in a cemetary, or to celebrate Christmas. But they want all of it to be mandated into any public area to accomodate their personal belief system..
Understand, whenever people preach God, there will ALWAYS be oppostion. It is our freedom and right to be free from God in everything we do. Many Christians piss people off because they don't think of them as people that want to be free from their beliefs but are hostile people instead, that are out to stop us from celebrating ours.
Happy Holidays,
Mike Deleve
