    Unfortunately it never went away. I thought this country was founded on freedom of religion, which includes freedom from religion.

      I’d be cool with it. Get him the fuck outta here. Plus, he’s already an experienced rapist.

        The most ardent religious adherents insist that atheists have no morals. They have no idea what they’re talking about. The truth is that they listen intently to an atheist with no morals every time to go to church.

    Religion is when you have corporate sponsored egg activities and military parades. Religion is when you send the poor to concentration camps and covet your neighbors’ land.

    I’m not even religious, but I 100% believe Jesus would go in and flip the resolute desk if he saw trump in there.

      I remember a couple of years ago, there were bad storms and flooding or something like that in parts of the USA. And one (1) church made the news for being the only church that provided shelter for the homeless while this was going on. Plenty others made the news for turning the homeless away.

      So if they’re not going to be loving their neighbours and caring for the poor, what value is this religion actually bringing to the world, other than teaching children that anyone who doesn’t conform to their culture deserves to burn and suffer for eternity?

    There is absolutely nothing in the Bible about Easter egg rolls being a part of the Christian faith.

    If this doofus didn’t constantly lie we’d never hear him speak a word.

      Who said anything about Christianity? Eggs and rabbits are symbols of fertility, and [insert your favourite fertility goddess] will be worshipped.

      The only people persecuting christians are other christians. who believe that their particular flavor is the only “real” flavor, and that everyone else is not really christian.

    All religions are powerless without believers. Just need to stop believing (and stop giving money.)

      the Jesus death/resurrection myth is celebrated on Easter, its not what makes Easter.

      You can celebrate Easter with or without any or all religions.
