Should Atheists be allowed to vote and give their opinion on public matters?

I truly don't trust someone who looks around and sees purpose, beauty and order in all creation, then believes it is all the result of some imaginary sky daddy who demands that his creations worship him even though he is a hateful bastard and doesn't deserve it.

Obviously you don't understand what atheism is. Atheists do NOT see that there is a purpose in anything. Atheism is clearly too complex for you so it's better that you take refuge in the sky daddy.

Although i dont agree with atheists they still have freedom of speach just like theists do.

Yes, they are just as good as anyone else.

I think they already do

So presumably you want your government to abolish the !st Amendment of the Constitution.

As the First Amendment guarantees freedoms concerning religion, expression, assembly, and the right to petition. It forbids Congress from both promoting one religion over others and also restricting an individual’s religious practices. It guarantees freedom of expression by prohibiting Congress from restricting the press or the rights of individuals to speak freely. It also guarantees the right of citizens to assemble peaceably and to petition their government.

When I was growing up a Christian I learned about the founder of my religion, one Jesus Christ, who taught that the most important things were love of your fellow man, that a Christian believed in charity and compassion, people who did not judge others and treated his fellow man with respect and tolerance.

Then as I grew up I met a growing number of Christians like you, people who put themselves above others, who judged and condemned people using Christianity as their justification.

Then you guys wonder why more and more people are turning their backs on Christianity, well I can tell you. It is because of Christians just like you.

look we live in a society that thrives and one reson is because every country run by religion...FALLS. if youi had a real thought you would know this,but....well go have some candy this is adult stuff.

Ignorant troll.

Of course they should. Freedom of religion also means freedom from religion. We do not base our laws on religion in this country.

The answer, is *yes*.

Jesus was a violent little turd who overturned tables full of money in a Temple,

still promises death to others by way of biblical texts, and is best known for portraying his anger

through the earnest, personal, highly inventive, and ever-changing explanations of his very protective modern-day followers.

The ideas, ideals, and decisions of Atheists remain unsoiled by such defective and opinionated literary biases.

Atheists have the same rights as you do.
