No.. it shouldn’t be...

Im probably more ANTI socialist, collectivist, communist, etc than most on FR. GO back through my posting history if you dont believe me...

Im not religious, but im also not against peaceful religion either. Peaceful being the primary adjective there.

I also respect the role that the christian religion has played in our freedoms. I just dont personally believe in it.

Either side limiting themselves of natural Allies is idiotic. However, I think Atheists in general have made themselves unwelcome do to their militant stance against people who peacefully practice a peaceful religion. They need to calm the hell down and take a libertarian stance towards peaceful religions. So, that being said, as a non religious person, I would have kicked them out just for being D-bags.

Then we would have 20% fewer supporters. How is that good?
