We live in a world where OUR side is attacked relentlessly and their side starts screaming in agony and frothing at the mouth if we direct ANY words back in the direction of the libtards. Let me spell it out for you: ATTACKING CHRISTIANITY IS A STANDARD LIBERAL TACTIC THAT I CAN FIND VIRTUALLY ANYWHERE IN THIS DAY AND AGE. Do we really need a miniature RevLeft on Stormfront to please people who just can't get enough of it from television, movies, "news" stations, academia, comedians, public schools, politicians, billboards, bumper stickers, and every other site on the web except Stormfront? Seriously?
It's not like slamming Christianity hasn't been done before. It's not like these "religion=bad" ideas aren't pounded into children's heads from the time they emerge from the womb. It's not like it doesn't happen all the time everywhere we go. Exactly what does this discussion contribute to our movement that we can't hear from EVERYONE else all the time?
Yeah, attacking the Christian church: Way to break new ground.

Yes, because the Inquisition, the Crusades and the burnings in England and France were just a small misunderstanding. Meanwhile, disagreeing with Christians and mocking their beliefs is a war crime.

And I bet that's the reason atheists can't get into office no matter their qualifications while 99% of the people in office are Christian, right?
Can't speak for the USA. In France, you are just being ignored, free to believe what you want.
of course, if you equate "not being obeyed" wirh "being attacked", you have a problem. just you. only you.

Yeah, promoting the Christian church: Way to break new ground.
(emphasis added):
"For a Weltanschauung is intolerant and cannot permit another
to exist side by side with it. It imperiously demands its own recognition as unique and exclusive
and a complete transformation in accordance with its views throughout all the branches of
public life. It can never allow the previous state of affairs to continue in existence by its side.
And the same holds true of religions.
Christianity was not content with erecting an altar of its own. It had first to destroy the pagan
altars. It was only in virtue of this passionate intolerance that an apodictic faith could grow up.
And intolerance is an indispensable condition for the growth of such a faith. "
-Adolf Hitler, "Mein Kampf"
I fear I may be using this particular quote many times.

"Yeah, that Liberal Christian preacher, Jimmy Carter is always attacking Christianity."
Jimmy Carter is a devout Southern Baptist, yet he's used the pre -1954 Pledge of Allegiance which didn't have the words 'Under God'; they were added only after .
The 1924-1954 Pledge. It's still valid, Stormcunters.
We're not attacking Christianity, dummy! We're attacking ChristoFrummery. Christianity, true Christianity, is a noble, mostly peaceful religion, teaching unconditional love, forgiveness, charity, etc. Jesus was cool!
It's the Frummy, blood-thirsty, bigoted, authoritarian, fire & brimstone, Old Testament-like, raging Demiurge version we abhor.
If your bunch, along with the Church throughout the past couple of millennia, had stuck to being Christ-like, this wouldn't be an issue!
Being totally in the zone to deserve attacks, criticism by the way, is lost to them.
Stormfront racist sez what? A shitload of verbal threats and attacks, that's what.
Tell ya what Nazi, name one uncalled for criticism of Christianity.
Critisizing the "Christian church: Way to break new ground."
There's a reason it's been around for centuries, because Christian atrocities and bullshit have been around as long.
Uber Christian racist shit is mad at the non-religious racist shits for questioning Christian-ness? Yeah, okay. Poor oppressed Christian white peoples.
Why can't whitey just get along?
Few (Western) people actually attack Christianity. What they attack is Christians who constantly try to push their views and narrow, hate-filled "morality" into our laws and schools. The Christians who keep trying to resurrect abortion laws, put Christian displays onto our public property, outlaw the teaching of evolution, try to reinstate public school prayers and stop same-sex marriage simply reap what they sow. You can't claim freedom of speech just for yourself - the people who think you're a sanctimonious fool have free speech, too. If you don't want criticism, just stay home, go to church, mind your own business and let everyone else do what they like. You can't criticize them for reacting to something you started.
You do know that there are many people who identify themselves as liberals and Christians, right? But then, no true Scotsman, I suppose.
"Yeah, attacking the Christian church: Way to break new ground."
Originality doesn't enter into it. It's a bit like a burglar going "Oh, arresting people for stealing things. How original."
Because absolutely everyone who is not a rabid right-wing Stormfront racist is a far-left "libtard," and nobody to the left of Dick Cheney has ever been a Christian. Ever.
I swear, these nutters have secluded themselves in their little echo chambers for so long, they don't actually know what the real world IS anymore. (If they ever did, that is...)
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
