I told you that being a smart aleck does you no good. You don't need to get lippy because you think I don't agree with your every word. You don't see me trying to bad mouth you, although I am getting tired of people who pop off the minute someone doesn't instantly agree with them. .

Is your answer to wait until ISIS is k*****g people in your neighborhood? Not mine. I take them seriously. Any group that posts videos sawing off people's heads needs to be eliminated. You can't expect them to not follow through on their threat to come here and k**l your family. And yes, I believe we need the most powerful military in history....today!

Instead of wanting to weaken our military, why aren't you going after the equipment manufacturers to bring down their outrageous prices? Try looking beyond fear abd anger and stop being sarcastic. I'm trying to have a civil discussion with only. Slurs and inuendo aren't needed. Especially if you want to be taken seriously. I see you still haven't posted much in the way of supporting evidence. Just someone else's opinion, a you tube video, and something you could have typed up yourself.

1 & 2 can be said about all candidates from all parties.

3. Is t***h and common knowledge for quite some time as evidenced by the nearly daily comments about the U.S. from other countries, publicized by all media as well as the net.

4. Ibama has cut the numbers of our military personnel, our navy and air force battle equipment, our nuclear arsenal, and makes apologies all over the world for our nation.

As far as I'm concerned, any POTUS who ever apologizes for America, should be thrown out of office. Anyone who doesn't know this is the greatest nation on earth, needs to leave and go to the one he/she feels is better.

None the less, a superpowerfull military is needed to keep the nation as secure as possible and taking out ISIS elsewhere on the planet is far preferable to fighting them here.

Again: those who would like to see our military weakened to the point of not being able to provide for tthe ntl security,....Can leave.

The major problem I have with Trump is his big mouth and petulant attitude. Not as much what he says, as how he says it.

Did I hit a Atheistic t***h nerve ?. . .

Can't the Atheist movement be scrutinized and be talked about, rationally as other Christian religious groups and religions ?

Is new Atheism a new type of religion ? . . .

Are Atheist the New “secular fundamentalists” ? . . .

And how do Atheist voice's seek to end this suffering of man and women kind from it's revolutionary religious roots.

They Atheist's are not a persecuted group or have a social stigma and conformity issues as once believed and practiced in this country and around the world.

Then Neal, you give a cryptic reply in your reply and state the article lacks "Intellectual Philosophy."

Tell me Neal, are not these two book's able to help define "Intellectual Philosophy" of secular Atheism or another take “evangelical anti-theism.” ?

The books help's to define the rudimentary beginnings of Atheism in the 1950's and the rise and growth in 2015 and rise of Atheism in America and around the World. Atheism is a new political movement, and is not discussed.

Then you lash out and you make the ridiculous statement about religion, "ignorance of nature gave birth to gods."

Then Neil you say "knowledge of nature is made for their destruction" of religion.

You fail to mention that the Christian religious charities provide to humanity of giving to the poor needy and the suffering.

This is Jesus Christ's message . . .

I'm sorry your reactionary comment missed the mark in your statement to the posted article.

Here is a brief synopsis of the two books that you obviously despise . . . So did I hit a Atheistic t***h nerve ?. . .


Book Review:

The article discussed two authors and their books.

The reviewer analyzed the topic of the "New Atheism" and the lack written books on the subject focused on the cultural and sociopolitical aspects of the movement.

1. CJ Werleman’s The New Atheist Threat: The Dangerous Rise of Secular Extremists

2. Stephen LeDrew’s The Evolution of Atheism: The Politics of a Modern Movement

Both books are essential reading for anyone seeking to better understand the way-wardness of a large chunk of the atheist movement.


Werleman defines New Atheism as “evangelical atheism,” or, as he emphasizes elsewhere “evangelical anti-theism theme.”

It is the conviction that religion is the leading source of problems around the world, and thus “is an obstacle to creating human perfection and a Western civilization utopia.”

That the New Atheists are “secular fundamentalists.”

They display a cultish commitment to science, a childishly simplistic view of religion, a severely bigoted stance toward Islam, and a slavish faith in what they take to be “the beneficent U.S. secular state.


LeDrew, a Canadian sociologist and post-doctoral fellow at the Centre for the Study of Religion and Society at Uppsala University in Sweden, presents his findings in an engaging, non-technical manner.

The text is divided into two main parts, the first on “Atheism as Ideology,” and the second on “Atheism as a Social Movement.”

Most importantly” challenging “the [widely held] assumption that the secular movement is liberal and progressive.” He writes that New Atheism “is a secular fundamentalism, a modern utopian ideology.”

LeDrew, sees it as an “essentially political phenomenon.” It is “only manifestly a critique of religion” while its somewhat veiled but veritable aim is “the universalization of the ideology of scientism and the establishment of its cultural authority.”

Moreover, among other things it is “a defense of the position of the white middle-class Western male, and of modernity itself,” thought to be “under threat by a swirling concoction of religious ignorance, epistemic relativism, identity politics, and cultural pluralism.”


Try to respond with fact's and back up those facts with sane rational opinions. . . .

That the New Atheists are “secular fundamentalists,” and emphasizes the “evangelical anti-theism theme,” discussed.

I would like to here you viewpoint on this subject

The t***h of the matter is there is no party anymore other than the elitist of Criminal Hill over We, the People..Yet, our system far exceeds that of other countries and is ever evolving..Not necessarily in the right direction, but it will turn around..

Comes a point, like everything else, lp, that once you hit rock bottom you can only rise above it..

We're there and We, the People can make it happen....We are only needed for v**es and our money...

They want both especially now..Make your v**e matter, make the change this country needs and stay on their butts once in office...We tolerate far too much and accept less as the way it is~~ It is only if we continue to let it be status quo.....Are you done yet?? I know I am.... :thumbup:
