Re: A theory on the Church/State question.
I understand your examples and don't disagree with your observations.<br />However, in the case of atheists that take issue, they are agressively pro-active in squelching a belief different than thier own. <br />Maybe they were wrongly "punished", ostracized and ridiculed. It might even be a logical excuse for that chip on thier shoulder.<br /><br />The Constitution rightly takes issue with rights and harm.<br />The activist Atheist takes issue with a Constitution that already protects him. <br />Consistent with the above quote,<br />his agenda is to Constitutionally "punish" those people that may have hurt him.<br /><br />Ultimately GOD or reference to it, has never harmed him or his beliefs. And by his own beliefs it isn't even possible.I don't think non-believers and doubters are threatened by something they don't believe in. It is the people who do believe that are the threat.<br />
