In principle yes, but it can be very difficult to hold a job as a teacher for example, and in parts of the south, it is an invitation to be run out of town. Being promoted in the military can be difficult as well.
Also, there are many states with laws that say no atheists can hold public office. Even though they hold no weight based on current SCOTUS ruling, they do still exist. The repubs work very hard to out christian each other and make elections into exactly the kind of religious tests that would otherwise be illegal. Because the dems are mostly cowards, they fall into line, making sure that everybody knows how they go to church. Even non believers in DC have to stay closeted, or fear losing their seats.
LOL… OK, that reminds me of a movie, didn’t think it really happened it real life. But it would also explain where all these Militant Atheists are coming from…
Supposedly. But, tell that to the lawmakers that push through laws that have absolutely no reason for existing beyond religious morality. ( See for example Alabama’s attempt at outlawing sex toys )
At this point the whole Religion vs Atheist Debate bores the shit out of me. I don’t care who wins. I believe what I believe and you believe what you believe. Tread on me and I’ll kill you!
Geez, don’t you think that’s a little harsh? How about you just envenomate them. There’d be a guaranteed trip to the hospital ER for that. Maybe they lose a limb. Maybe they go into cardiac arrest for a bit. I think that’s fair…
I mean all the did was step on you after all. I can’t rightly see killing a person for stepping on one of my cloven hoove… err… feet.
freedom OF religion lets people worship or not, as they choose
freedom from religion sounds kinda bastardly
They primarily defend the right of people not to be religious. Great folks.
I thought that was already a protected right…

I can guarantee it still happens, at least in Maryland and West Virginia.
Oh, I believe you, I just keep forgetting how far irrational behavior can go.
Interesting.
Do you have any source?

Scheduling a public protest for this including nipple clamps and butt-plugs, asap.

The “conservatives” want to bring this country under Jesus Sharia law or some fucked up retarded shit.
I actually read T.F.A. and don’t see anything in the “ideological purity” article thing that equates to Jesus Sharia law. Please try again.
shitstorm in 3…2…
I read up to the part where it states it source as the Jew York Times.
Alarmist bullshit is comical.
cry about it.

Well fukken sed.
Most of the time I basically feel the same. Once in a while though, something pricks my protective bubble and I’m back in.

about time someone tried to free the massaes from the lies of judaic-based religions
Nobody likes you.
Except, ironically, Jesus.
Jesus doesn’t like him, either. Latinos don’t generally look fondly on nazi wannabes.
Fuck you.
