The atheist group Freedom From Religion Foundation


This group goes around threatening lawsuits any time they discover a public body involved in any way with a Christian display or activity. They nearly always win because the cost of defending against such a lawsuit is more than the community can afford or justify.

My wife’s hometown used to display a lighted cross on their water tower. FFRF complained and demanded it be taken down. The village couldn’t afford the expense of the lawsuit and took the cross down. The people in town made it a point to crosses on private property everywhere they could. FFRF couldn’t do anything about that.

I don’t want our Republican leaders working across the aisle with democrats either... and NONE OF US NEED TO ‘heal’ with white antifa thugs or BLM black thugs who burned our cities down. So stop asking.

Get real democrats...

We don’t want to be friends with people doing voter fraud or people who want to take away our freedom of speech and religion either.

Go away democrats...

Great post.

It's like being told that we need to heal by rolling out the welcome mat for cancer.

Come to think of it, Esther the hidden (crypto) Jewess did exactly that... invited that wicked Haman to a very special banquet.

With everyone wearing masks, and the weird-o-meter pegged in the secular realms (God nowhere in the story, or so it seems), you'd think people would catch on that Purim time is here.

Crazy stuff. If it weren't in the Megillah, who would ever believe it?

It puts PM Netanyahu's congratulations to Joe Biden in a different light entirely.

"I have a personal, long and warm connection with Joe Biden for nearly 40 years, and I know him to be a great friend of the State of Israel..."

I don’t like what I’m seeing. I’ll refrain from saying anything, so no one will think I’m pushing the theory that the left wants to eliminate Christianity.

I truly consider them enemies after this stunt.

There is no going back for me.

But if it were, Operation MOHAMMED’S Child, or for that matter Operation Flying Spaghetti Monster’s child, ¡no problemas!

Postal and Federal workers who work on federal holidays get 2x their base salary. Those who work on Christmas Day receive at least 2.5X basic pay. I worked with people who are Moslem or Bhuddist who gladly volunteered to work on Christmas. When Dec 25 falls on a day an employee is regularly off, they can work the previous day and still get that extra bonus. I dare any atheist group to sue the govt and civil Service unions over this.

Useful idiot snowflakes with their constant silly virtue signing can’t provide cover for democrats much longer...

I know what you’re saying NFHale - it’ll be hard to ever see them as good people again.

“..it’ll be hard to ever see them as good people again...”

All I see over there is people who want me and my people erased.

So I will treat them accordingly.

It’s not a theory.

They have been actively working for it for decades.

True. But this is no time to be naive and believe that we can ever get along with the psychotic maniacs on the Left.

They want us erased, and the sooner people on our side realize that and prepare to stomp on them, the better.

Many people are waking up to that fact based on conversations I have had.

Good to hear, but waking up isn’t enough; be prepared to fight.

This isn’t going to be peaceful, if history is any guide - and it generally IS a very good guide.

I have no problem with the Bible being read in public schools or the study of the bible in its historical context. But I do have a problem with Mr Graham trying to use schools to proselytize students to his particular theological bias.
