I can’t remember if you’re a theist or not but ALL Christian are taught by their religion than ANYONE who rejects their god for ANY reason (not just for not believing in the supernatural) will be sent to a dimension that exists for torture for eternity. This dimension was created for the express purpose of punishing evil therefor atheists are indeed, in honest Christian eyes, evil or as close enough to at the very least. There is no purgatory for atheists, they’ll end up just like Hitler.

And I think they’re worried about atheism’s spread thus condemning more souls, I’d say that’s damaging to society wouldn’t you?

When it comes to these particular points of dogma I’m afraid apologetic moderation simply cannot apply. Lincoln Diaz-Balart is expressing the teachings of his religion quite accurately.

You cannot call yourself a Christian if you think your god loves atheists because he made quite clear from the 10 Commandments to Jesus Christ; atheists will burn in Hell no matter how good a person they were and Hell is for evil people.

Poliecemen are always perfect & should always be obeyed, just like jesus. Mormon policemen are the mostest perfect:

Christian pastors are full of God’s morality. They preach it to their congregations:

Wives of pastors teach their christian morality to their children:

Christians have the morality of their God. Athiests don’t have that special christian morality. They only believe in their fellow man.

Gotta bust your balls a bit, OW. Thanks for standing up for us.

No doubt, but unlike with the Republicans, it’s not a defining characteristic of the party.

In Terry Pratchett’s line, some people’s minds you
couldn’t change with a hatchet.

This guy’s a total idiot. Fuck him and everybody who looks like him.
