Florida schools introducing armed drones that respond to shootings within seconds

Lies, they were mostly deists who were fleeing an oppressive Catholic Church to new lands. That's the exact reason they had this opinion of Christianity.

Absolutely none of that resembles factual history. Stop getting info from atheist websites.

I edited my reply, thank you.

Lets play a game: Which sect of Christianity? Traditional, English, Baptist? Because there can only be one correct sect, so I hope we choose to codify the correct one. Sucks to be you if you follow the wrong sect and are forced to convert against you will to get any government aid/protection.

What are you talking about? "Sects?" You mean denominations? Have you ever talked to people from the various denominations, particularly leaders? I seriously doubt it. There is little disagreement between the major denominations of Christianity and absolutely no hostility that would bring on anything you're rambling on about. But if you disagree, by all means, present your evidence. Please.

What does that say to Buddhist ? Or Hindi? Or whatever god, or lack of god, you follow? View attachment 90655

Oh, yay. A decades-old meme. How original. There were DOZENS of Founding Fathers. Your meme uses just four who conveniently agree with your viewpoint.

Counterpoint: The parts of the US with the highest rate of both violence tend to be the most religious.

Counterpoint to your counterpoint: I live in a VERY religious city (population 15k) with a VERY low rate of violent crime. The area around the city for hundreds of miles also has dozens of VERY religious cities of various sizes also with VERY low rates of violent crime. Your counterpoint is false.

And lets be clear: Religion has for its entire existence been little more then an excuse to force societal norms on a population who otherwise ignore said religions core tenants when inconvenient. Generally speaking: Those who loudly proclaim how Christian they are tend to be the people who follow it's beliefs the least.

What a load of nonsense. Which atheist website(s) are you getting this complete offal from?

Sure it did; they were fully aware of England denying office to individuals who did not follow the "correct" religion, and explicitly wanted to prevent that here.


Blatantly false.


Or rapid industrialization, increase in the amount of time individuals are required to work to make a decent wage, rapid technological change, increase in the number of firearms, or a multitude of other factors.

Also worth noting the divorces are up in part because Women are no longer going to settle for a POS scumbag, since they can now provide for themselves. And that's a "good" thing.


Yep, everyone who isn't Christian is inherently a terrorist.

Mods, get some damn control because I'm tired of these guys derailing literally every thread.

Me derailing ha, as for industrialization that was the 1870s-1910s, and this country didn't have a school violence issue, that started after the supreme Court removed God from public schools.

And not all non Christians are terrorists but the vocal Congress members who are Muslim are also anti American and pro Hamas a known terrorist group, and they fully support the terrorism of Hamas thus they are terrorists.

Says a lot about the people that live there.

Criticizing Israel != supporting Hamas. Something people like you are incapable of separating.

Not according to statistics; there's always exceptions, but in general there's a statistically higher rate of violent crime in areas that are more religious.

Although if you want the "real" answer: It's poverty. And I'm going to guess your region is relatively affluent, and thus the exception.

"Lies, damnable lies, and statistics."

You seemed to be blaming the high crime on the presence of religion. Correlation does not mean causation. Name your source.

And no, this area is not the least bit affluent. The average salary here is only $61k. The surrounding smaller cities are undoubtedly lower.

They do support Hamas however, as for criticism of Israel, they've offered to end it if Hamas agrees to an unconditional surrender which they have refused. Remember Hamas the elected government of Palestinians declared war on Israel, Israel is winning said war and their terms are simple the unconditional surrender of Hamas
