Why is it illegal to be happy?

Pediophilia was not the issue i was pointing out. It is the netural stance that is synomous with atheism in general. Which causes some of you all to pause to see how a 'room' will react before you say anything. I am sure if the conversation when the otherway and there was a few of the more outspoken members who entertained the idea even jokingly, those "Not alright" with pedophillia would have moved on, and been Not alright with it. Again Not to say someone would not have said something because you are all too opionated to not speak out. The point being was I was the 20th person to view this thread with a hand full of 'other' members at hand and the first to say something. The topic (and where any of you stand in relation to said topic) is a secondary concern to the point I was making. Point being 20 of you have sold your selves/your 'morality' to see what other people were going to say first. This is the danger of atheism I was speaking of. That you (at least the 20) felt the need to keep their thoughts to themselves on a topic that just a few years ago would have demanded heads to roll!

Really? You first say that anyone who disagreed with those who were vocal would keep quiet and then say atheists are too opinionated to do so. I don't think anyone was concerned with what anyone else would say first. Atheists have disagreed respectfully (and occasionally disrespectfully) on this forum plenty of times about issues other than belief in god.

Could it be that maybe, just maybe the people who looked at it were guests and therefore not able to comment?

Did you miss that part?
