I respect what Ellen Johnson is doing but I have seen several of her interviews and it seems to me that she does a poor job of making the case for secularism. When he mentioned Stalin she should have mentioned Thomas Paine, a man without whom the American Revolution probably never would have happened, and an outspoken atheist.
But if I had my choice I would want someone who believes in some sort of supreme being in the office of the President to at least know
I do not have some communist running the country. Because we all saw what happened under communist rule in Russia. They are just as bad as Islamic extremeism only at the other end of the scale.
These Christian fanatics have penetrated deep into the roots of the American political system. It is their goal to completely change America's law to fit their own fanatical believes, and wipe out the true meaning of creativity and freedom- just as they have been manipulating and re-editing the bible from it's original version, to fit their fanatical views of the world.
This atheist woman is the dumbest retard I have ever seen.
I'm an atheist. Stop allowing women who have two digit IQs to talk on behalf of all atheists in the country. Stop revolting! Instead go to some good school and get educated and prove to the society that atheists are among the educated elites.
I'm just glad that an Atheist is being allowed to go on such a prominent tv show and give our side. A hundred years ago, that just wouldn't have happened, and not only because tv didn't exist then. lol Bravo to Ellen Johnson!
indeed dumb question hehe and stupid tv show there were no debate there, was juts a rush of words in 5 minutes.
I do believe that politics and religion r not a good mix. The history has teach me that, when a persone become a leader of a contry with diferent belives, he have to let the bible, coran or whatever other object of faith in his home a become a leader of their people and act driven by the logic and reason, and not by esoteric believes.
No they were religious, some more than others, and the least were more religious than a lot of people today. Benjamin Franklin was not as much, but still was.

We do not want religion in our American politics, and if religion cares to get involved in American politics then they should start paying taxes.
If you want to see how religion affects politics look at any muslim country.
If god hates athiest why did he make Ellen so hot looking and he made the guy a dork.
The moral conduct of my children is not the responsiblity of the government, it is the responsibility of the family.

God invited us to worship him and he called it spirituality. But came along the devil and he told us to organize it, and called it religion.

Some of the founding fathers were religious, some were not. Above all they were secularists. What a dumb question to end the discussion on.
