WELCOME TO THE NEW WORLD ORDER...

[Cyberman]

A road is designed with gutters on the left and right for the trash to wash into. It is never good to be far left or far right of any issue it's best to remain in the center.

You don't drive, do you? That or you hit oncoming traffic a lot. Because that's not how roads work.

[Huggy Bear]

I like how you assume modern roads, roads have existed for thousands of years.

It's called an analogy, but, please go ahead and explain how roads work.

[Cyberman]

I never assumed that; you merely failed to clarify what you were talking about. I obviously missed the part where the analogous roads are thousands of years old.

Anyway, what's the point of an anology if you can't explore it?

In your opnion, how similar or not similar is this to your lack of understanding of what secularism is?

[robvalue]

Sexularism.

[Mister Agenda]

Consider for a second that often the most secular, least religious societies also tend to be some of the most prosperous financially and socially, and also the happiest.

You can't be serious.

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

Anyone should be able to read the qualifier 'often' and realize that a few counter-examples won't be sufficient to negate the point. Professional starting pitchers often rest three or four days after pitching a game before pitching another. Naming ten starting pitchers that don't do this would not negate the point, because the claim was not that ALL starting pitchers do this. I suppose you've committed a straw man fallacy, characterizing Fidel's claim as if it allowed of no exeptions when it explicitly did allow for them.

Go study Stalinist Russian and see how much of a "utopia" it was.

You'll find few communists on this site, and even fewer people who think state-imposed atheism is a good idea. For the most part, we are secularists who think the best course for both government and religion is for the government to be as neutral toward religion and unentangled with it as possible.

I said this already to him Stalin killed for political reasons. The only real reason why Stalin killed people is he was a very paranoid person. But still why does Huggy think there is a link between atheism and communism.

[Mister Agenda]

Whoa, two examples! I guess Denmark, Sweden, Australia and so on just ceased to exist!

None of those countries instituted state atheism.....

No kidding. Since Fidel didn't say a word about state imposed atheism, what do you imagine your point is?

Huggy is putting words into peoples mouth, really really stupid theist tactic.
