QUOTE "Are religionists so thin-skinned they must squelch free debate? One small freethought billboard in the immense state of California is such a threat to insecure religious egos that it must be censored? I support freedom of religion and all, but I don't see any billboards advertising other religions. So...I guess it's only fair? |

Speaking of the United States being a principally secular thing:
QUOTE(Thomas Jefferson) Millions of innocent men, women and children, since the introduction of Christianity, have been burnt, tortured, fined and imprisoned; yet we have not advanced one inch towards uniformity. QUOTE(Thomas Jefferson) Ridicule is the only weapon which can be used against unintelligible propositions. Ideas must be distinct before reason can act upon them; and no man ever had a distinct idea of the trinity. It is the mere Abracadabra of the mountebanks calling themselves the priests of Jesus." QUOTE(Benjamin Franklin) "I have found Christian dogma unintelligible. Early in life I absented myself from Christian assemblies." QUOTE(George Washington) If I could conceive that the general government might ever be so administered as to render the liberty of conscience insecure, I beg you will be persuaded, that no one would be more zealous than myself to establish effectual barriers against the horrors of spiritual tyranny, and every species of religious persecution. QUOTE(John Adams) “This would be the best of all possible worlds, if there were no religion in it”
