"...enjoy your freedom....I hope you won't regret later when your end is near."
Pascal's Wager? You've got to be kidding!

[snip long list of cut-and-paste quotations —Ebonmuse]

"Finally in a stand of a Christian nation wars is resorted to and atrocities happens in wartime that is why order must be restore and peace ensues."
And, in a Christian Nation, who committed these atrocities? The "redskins" had an excuse for shooting (they were shooting back) and scalping (the French taught it to them). What's America's excuse?

"Whatever you people say, I am glad you are in the minority and America remains to be a Christian country and predominantly Protestant."
I'm glad that it's more pluralistic and more secular than it used to be. One day, perhaps, an atheist will be able to run for public office without his or her lack of religion being an issue.

"Humanism teaches atheism, autonomous man, amorality, evolution and one-world socialism."
Granted, I've never taken a course in humanism, but it teaches what? You can be a humanist without being an atheist, no man is an island, humanist ethics are still ethics (and absolutist Biblical ethics are absolute only in the sense that they will never change until they do), evolution simply is, and "one-world socialism" is a Right Wing (Christian) bogeyman.

"It has created a spiritually apathetic society that hardly murmured when in 1962, citing no precedents, a liberal Supreme Court abolished prayer from the public schools and the next year abolished Bible reading from the schools."
Okay. I'm done with you. I try to argue in good faith (occasionally, I even succeed). You, since you just cut-n-pasted the same bit that you did before (and that I've already countered), are arguing in bad faith.

Atheism isn't a threat to democracy. Ignorance is.

Ignorance, and crappy pizza.

Atheism isn't a threat to democracy. Ignorance is.

The American public was conditioned to accept this and so from that time there was a startlingly great rise in teenage pregnancies (up 556%)
No or limited sex-ed + no or limited access to contraceptives = pregnancy. Jesus, or lack of same, wasn't involved.

...venereal disease (up 226%)
No or limited sex-ed + no or limited access to contraceptives = VD.

I should note that there's no attribution for these statistics. Statistics that can't be double-checked are worth about as much as these magic beans.

Family divorce which had declined for 15 years, then tripled each year since.
Oh, grand statistics. Follow me down the rabbit hole for a moment. If divorced tripled every year after 1962 and 40% of all marriage end in divorce (as of 2008) then in 1962 .0000000000000000000000000000000003595461800933657761028850347139% of all marriages ended in divorce.

S.A.T. scores, previously stable, declined remarkably.
Space Race + consistently underfunded schools = falling grades. The solution isn't more Jesus, it's textbooks from this decade in small classes taught by teachers that aren't perilously close to the poverty line.

The high principles that made America great were lost.
Don't get me wrong, the 60's was a period of massive social upheaval, but a return to the imagined 50's won't bring back the idealized America that never existed. The 50's Mom was only happy in the kitchen because she was medicated (either professionally or "self"), and now she has to work because the modern dad doesn't make enough money for the family and the house and the insurance and college. The 50's dad can't exist now because his good, solid union job moved to China. The 50's kid still exists, but can't roam anymore because his parents are scared shitless about...everything (whereas in the 50's they were just afraid of Commies. And Mexicans. And Catholics. And brown people. And comic books. And rock 'n' roll music. And...). Most of that is economic, some of that is civil rights, little if any of that is spiritual (except in the sense that religion has been both for and against every social movement ever. Abolution? Both sides. Women's suffrage? Both sides. To one group socialism is evil, while to another it's liberation theology, and is good.)

Also, I'm especially pleased by Modusoperandi's incisive point (another one cyrus refuses to acknowledge, naturally) that the supposedly more godly America of the founding era enslaved Africans, slaughtered Native Americans, denied women the vote, and did many other things now recognized as immoral. Those inconvenient facts do tend to trip up conservatives who unapologetically yearn for the past, and I'm rather impressed by the way cyrus manages the contortions necessary to praise the modern era's social advances while simultaneously decrying us as godless heathens who've strayed from the true path laid down by our predecessors. A freethinker would probably say that the possibility of self-correction was built into the American social contract from the beginning, and we can praise our founders for their foresight in setting up such a system without excusing the other evils they committed.

I find it fascinating that the Christian-nation propaganda has spread even to evangelicals in other countries, who presumably have no ideological stake in its being true. It may be that the virulent strain of know-nothingism that's infected the religious right is dragging evangelical Christianity all around the world down to the lowest common denominator.

And, Cyrus, I refer you to the 11th article of the Treaty of Tripoli:

Art. 11. As the Government of the United States of America is not, in any sense, founded on the Christian religion; as it has in itself no character of enmity against the laws, religion, or tranquillity, of Mussulmen; and, as the said States never entered into any war, or act of hostility against any Mahometan nation, it is declared by the parties, that no pretext arising from religious opinions, shall ever produce an interruption of the harmony existing between the two countries.
