This article sums it up pretty well. Of course, I didn't write
it, but
hopefully you'll get the
drift.

Sorry you're disappointed, but it's not the first time and probably
won't be the last.

Judging from that article I'd have to say that the author, and
probably you, share some confusion about the difference between
values, religious beliefs and political beliefs. Sometimes
reasonable
people with high values have to agree to disagree. More
importantly,
it is inappropriate to try and impose your religious beliefs on
others
and then accuse them of lacking "values".
Other than, possibly, the first one, there is nothing religious
there. I
don't consider the first
one a religious position. 'Marriage' was an institution that had some
meaning. Now liberals,
especially, have made it a sham. And, I agree that 'it is 'it is
inappropriate to try and impose
your religious beliefs on others', and that includes atheists
imposing
theirs. If you can't read
that and determine what 'values' are being discussed, then I can
understand your comments.
Religious beliefs are fine. Just do not force them on others, but
likewise, others should not infringe your religious freedoms. And
marriage
has been different things through the years. Lots of the profits
in the
bible had multiple wives. In the 1800's you could marry multiple
spouses
in Texas, Alabama and another regions also. And not even have to be
Mormon. Texas about we're married if you announced it in front of 20
witness's or signed in to a hotel as Mr. And Mrs. No church or state
involved. It is supposed to be a free country. You want to marry
same
sex? Go for it. Just do not require the rest of unto pay for your
lifestyle. Same goes for most drugs, do them, die if that happens,
but do
not expect society to pay for your medical bills.
Atheists are bullying Christians all over the country. Putting up nasty
posters to mock and just kill Christian freedom of speech at Nativities
and such, even going as far as taking the word God from a 6 year olds
poem to her granny at a school function, and getting "A Charlie Brown
Christmas" banned... This is just intolerance and hate, nothing else...
------------------
It may be hate and intolerance, but they have the same rights to speech
as do those of a religious bent. Getting such banned, should not be,
but they have the right to speak against religion.
But not chase it down to shut it down and no other reason... They are
sick bullies, pure and simple. Not confident enough with their own
beliefs to stand strong without attacking others. Very weak people
indeed.
Gee, do you think that if some atheists put up a display that told
people the atrocities of Christanity and that it's all a lie that
Christians would just let it go?? Ever hear of Westboro?

Let's see, Christians hate homosexuals, lesbians, Buddists, Muslims, any
and all other religions, atheists, agnostics. They believe that all
humans are sinners and deserve to be tortured for all eternity and the
only solution to that IS Christianity.
Your dilusions are hilarious... and sad at the same time. Must suck to
harbor so much hate you are willing to lie just to try to justify your
own selfishness and lack of moral core...
In other words, Christians tell
everyone that they are horrible and that you should be tortured
mercilessly because you are so horrible, but if you dedicate your like
to worshiping [insert you favorite fictional character], you can be
forgiven for being such a horrible person.
Chic-fil-a fired a person because that person didn't want to participate
in group prayer.
Yeah, that's tolerant!
