And there are many that would stamp out religion altogether. What is your point?


Ive never met or heard from an atheist/agnostic who wanted to strip away the freedom to practice whatever religion you wanted.

Now, many wish to systematically lessen the impact of religion on society through education, but nobody is advocating for legislation making christianity or islam or judaism illegal.

The fact remains that A LOT of American christians advocate for legislation that forces their beliefs and morality on others in a society founded upon the idea that that shouldnt happen. The two situations just arent the same.

How so? Don't get moral beliefs confused with religious beliefs. While somewhat connected, they are also different in many ways. What laws have been passed that forces people toward a particular religion?
