The First Amendment is *explicitly* non-Christian.

Really?

1. That contradicts what the framers said in their own words.

2. If it is atheistic, tell me why the atheists are working so hard to infringe on the free exercise of Christians. This has been shown in numerous examples around the world. When the atheists implement a system, the first thing they do is stamp out the Christians. They are responsible for the greatest loss of human life in the history of the planet.

3. If it is any other non-Christian philosophy, show me one of the major religious movements in the world that tolerates individual free will as Christianity does.

You are wrong. Freedom of Conscience is a decidedly Judeo-Christian principle and was written into our very first amendment. Any other belief system seeks to dominate.

Really. The first amendment allows anyone to worship as they please... they can even make a graven image if they so choose. This goes against several Commandments.

I'm sorry... when are the atheists bursting into your church and tackling the preacher? Or shutting down religious cable channels? Or taking Bibles out of your home?

More martyr-mongering.

Never happened. Atheists rarely attain any sort of power whatsoever. Perhaps you are thinkign of the Communists, who were about as atheist as *you* are. They simply replaced a supernatural God with a "historical dialectic" god and a State-god.

Buddhism springs immediately to mind.

> Any other belief system seeks to dominate.

Sigh. Strap on those blinders a little tighter.
