The atheists get to poop thier pants thread

[Heywood]

Poor Woodie....I bet you still want blacks to ride in the back of the bus because that's how it was done in the old days!

There you go again Minimalist....trying to get people to hate those who don't share your politics.

The 5-4 ruling ... was confined to the specific circumstances and offered little guidance on how other communities should offer civic prayers without violating the Constitution.

Funny, seems to me that Heywood is the one shitting his pants over a narrow ruling.

I am a little bit. I meant this to be a fun thread not one that pisses everyone off. Sorry if anyone feels they've been trolled....this wasn't my intention.

This case was not about Christians getting their way. This case was about Christians keeping their way. Remember this suit was originally brought by atheists to stop a pre-existing practice.

Yes, and for Southerners, one major driver for fighting against the North was about keeping their "way", i.e, slavery. Nothing like tradition!

Pre-existence of a practice is no argument for the validity of that practice; nothing more than the fallacy of an argument from tradition.

In the US, the standard must be is the practice constitutional or not?

Hey, if Christian jackasses want to display their delusional buffoonery in public, I'm fine with it, as long as everyone else gets equal access and time.

I never claimed atheists were wrong to challenge the practice.

I claimed the notion that Christians are "trying to get their way" is misleading because it suggests that Christians were fighting to be able to do something they previously couldn't. This was an instance of atheists trying to get their way. This was an instance of atheists trying to get Christians to stop doing something they've been doing for years and years.
