Yes, it is the hotel's choice. And it's discriminatory. Not to mention presumptuous. It's also a subtle way to promote a particular religion. All of which are reasons that cause me to object.

So what? This does nothing to support your contention that Stalin killed people because of atheism.
If it wasn't because of atheism, why did Wurmbrand undergo "Christianity is Stupid" brainwashing for seventeen hours a day for weeks as in the YouTube video above? Not only was he imprisoned, but tortured as well. I know Stalin wasn't the leader of Romania, but that country was under the same system.
So you start off by telling us that Stalin killed people because of atheism. When we shoot that down, you bring up the story of ONE GUY who was imprisoned (not killed) in ROMANIA (not the Soviet Union). And you try to connect this to Stalin by saying Romania "was under the same system".
Ugh.
Show me a war that was fought because atheists were trying to spread their message. Show me where atheists burned believers at the stake. Show me where atheists accused others of "witchcraft" and hanged people.
Science flies us to the moon and stars. Religion flies us into buildings.
God allowed 200,000 people to die in an earthquake. So what makes you think he cares about YOUR problems?
