How come he can push his religion on others?
Keep that Godless athiest out of the state of GA.
I suppose they could just keep the Bibles (and any other religious material) at the front desk and hand them out there, but something tells me that Buckner and his kind wouldn’t be too happy with that solution.
Since atheists deny that is a religious faith, it cannot be counted as a religion (by his own definition). And the texts he selected against specific faiths are not "from other religions". They are strictly against specific faiths. It isn't about "debate" or "political education". It is about providing religious texts for those who may want to read them for personal uplift.
it just proves this isn’t about freedom from religion. he wants to find other groups to donate books to “test” the policy. gee when he couldn’t get the evil bible books removed, now he wants to get as many religious books in there as he can.
he’s just an elitist atheist hypocrite with a chip on his shoulder for Christianity. no other religions spend a serious amount of time and money to place their books anywhere.
“I agree with the lady who says that the atheists fear of God is proof of His existence. “

Odd. Speaking for myself and every other atheist I know, we don’t fear something that we have never seen evidence for. Your assertion is simply untrue.
This Buckner guy should raise money to put Korans in every hotel room and perhaps some stupid Dianetics. Such a simple “solution” to such a stupid problem.
And am I the only one who sees more Moron, er, Mormon bibles than Protestant Bibles in hotel rooms?
No, it suggests that other religions are too cheap to give out free copies of their book of choice.
They are not being prevented from doing it, they just don't. And that is their choice.
What is the matter with this guy that he doesn't support choice?
A book of words may be ignored. The Word will not. One way or another The Word will prove true, and every man a liar. Meanwhile I note with interest the fear and loathing that attends to some who come into contact with a Holy Bible. Why is that?
“prompted some to question why this hasnt been more of an issue in the US before.”
Why would anyone ask this? The answer is simple. People were 100 times less pathetic 50 years ago.
The Christian Bible is the most popular book of all time, so if there is one book that a state which is completely neutral in regards to religion or non-religion with no agenda for or against should decide to allow in a lodge, why not go with the hands-down most popular ever? What this Atheist is asking for is to have religious books banned from consideration because he wants the state to favor non-religion over religion.
How absurd. Just don’t pick it up and read it you nimrod.
atheists are an enigma, in that they have to acknowledge the existence of God in order to deny Him.
The penultimate Catch 22
Somehow the words “establishment of religion” seem to be grossly misunderstood.
is not a right recognized in the Constitution.
Another atheist jerkwad tyrant. Some hotels have Book of Mormon, Koran, Baghavad Gita, etc...but rather demand they be removed I just choose not to read them. Sometimes I feel sorry for sad sack agressive atheists who will kick themselves right out of eternity in heaven. Worst decision evahhhhhhhhhh.
“The atheists fear of God is proof of His existence. Most rational adults are not afraid of Santa Claus or Mickey Mouse, but atheists react to the very name of God as if they were being set on fire!”
Worth repeating.
I’ve always been mystified by those Gideon Bibles you find in motel rooms everywhere. The Gideons must have some serious mega-bucks when they can afford to print enough bibles to plant in practically every motel room in America. And they replace them when people take them home, as many people do. Who are the Gideons, anyway? (Excuse me if I sound dumb about this, but I have no clue.)
Bump!
