Catholic League president Bill Donohue comments on Saturday's "Reason Rally" in Washington, D.C. attended by atheists:
It is impossible for atheists to have a rally without bashing people of faith. They especially loathe Christians, and no group gets them jacked up more than Roman Catholics. Saturday's rally was no exception.
Although atheists claim that people of faith brainwash kids, it is they who are the masters. "Hey Kids," one of the signs read, "It's Okay—GOD is PRETEND." Being vulgar comes natural to them: "Religion is Like a Penis," one sign read, "It's OK to have one…But it is NOT OK to whip it out in public, shove it in my face, or tell me what to do because you have one...." Then there was the gal who held a sign demanding that adherents of the three monotheistic religions "Get Out of My Panties."
They got specific with signs such as "So many Christians, so few lions." There was a man dressed as Jesus riding an inflatable dinosaur; another man held a large wooden cross with a mask of "The Joker" on top. They really got specific when Australian songwriter Tim Minchin thrilled the crowd with "The Pope Song." Here are some of the lyrics: "I don't give a f*** if calling the pope a motherf***er means…You see I don't give a f*** what any other motherf***er believes about Jesus and his motherf***ing mother."
The big draw was Englishman Richard Dawkins. He implored the crowd to "ridicule and show contempt" for people of faith. "Mock them, ridicule them in public," he bellowed. Especially Catholics. Dawkins not only mocked the Eucharist, he advised the crowd to ask Catholics, "Do you really believe...that when a priest blesses a wafer, it turns into the body of Christ?"
Catholics take note: The fact that the atheists always attack us more than any other religious group is a backhanded compliment. They know who the real enemy of hate is, and who they must defeat. They don’t have a prayer.
In general, atheists are pro-islam and they, like muslims, assert the superiority of islam over all things western. I'm sure you have heard (countless times) from ahteistic and secularist sources of anti-historical propaganda how "the islamic civilization was scientifically more advanced than primitive christian europe" and how "we have to thank muslims for the rebirth of science in the west" and how "the crusades set back the progress of science" and how "muslims invented chemistry and mathematics while europeans were mired in superstion" and how "the crusades was an unprovoked war of aggression against innocent muslims" and how "christians are violent and evil: just look what they did to the poor muslims during the crusades, etc, etc."
They have been saying this over and over and people today mostly believe these denigrations of Christianity and western culture.
So, in short, a vote for atheism is a vote for islam. Atheism is islam's loyal buddy.
“But really, I ask you: does doubting that prayer would do any good for Richard Dawkins reflect lack of faith in him, or lack of faith in Christ?”
It reflects my growing belief that he is such a committed enemy of God and servant of evil that we’d have almost as much effect as praying for the devil himself.
If Jesus didn't want us to love our enemies, He wouldn't have said, "Love your enemies."
And it's interesting if you look at the whole sentence: "But I tell you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, that you may be children of your Father in heaven." Matt 5:44-45
Love enemies and pray for persecutors, why? It doesn't even guarantee that they'll be converted. It says that it's so YOU may be a child of your Father who is in heaven.
Not only Dawkins' salvation is hanging in the balance here. Ours is, too.
