WELCOME TO THE NEW WORLD ORDER...

[Fidel_Castronaut]

And finally, just because my handle is 'Fidel' doesn't mean I'm a communist numbnuts.

When did i call you a communist? My quote was.

You of all people should realize communism introduced "state atheism" FIDEL....

Assuming that since you use that handle, then you should know something about communism.

Apparently i was right.

And two points to clear up before we finish. I have studied communist philosophy already. Specifically the ideas of Georges Sorel and the comparative discourse between his writings on violence and the philosophies employed by various Wahhabi sects throughout the middle east over the past century.

You made an inference. The only reason you brought up communism, and indeed the only reason you wrote FIDEL in bold was because you saw a link between my handle and Fidel Castro. What I know or don't know about communism is irrelevant to the post you cited that I wrote in reply to Rondee. You brought up the link which, again, has no relevance to this subject.

You've made a point in your previous reply of 'secularism vs religion'. Why? This is wholly incorrect and a gross misrepresentation of what secularism is. Again, secularism guarantees religious freedom. It gurantees the freedom of and from religious imposition by creating a neutral public space. Why do you think it is against religion?

You've muddied the water of this debate by introducing utterly superfluous and irrelevant points of discussion with the hope of inferring a link (atheism/secularism etc). My only initial point to date was the seeming link between prosperity and irreligious societies, or at the very least states that employ a fair and secular system of governmental structures. That's it.

Now, how about replying to the rebuttals of your initial erroneous reply?
