Why do religious people get so mad at atheists, seriously can't you just believe that heaven exists, hell exists, and leave us alone

Also we're not naive either atheists scored higher on a test on Christianity than Christians did XD

Just Keeping It REAL HERE..........

@MistahmiZheJAH You clearly have a firm grasp on history...

@leedaomillz I thought if you were so against Ron Paul, that you would have reasons, that you would have already done your research and knew exactly why you don't like him. Now I am lead to believe you don't like him because of what the media tried to make him out to be. I don't blame you though, most people have a very false image of him because of how anti-establishment he is, and the fact they do not do their own personal research into his character and personal philosophies.

@leedaomillz I can't 'give you' the philosophy of liberty. Liberty is every individuals inalienable rights given to them by their creator. Liberty is respecting every individuals personal choices in life and not impeding on them if they don't harm or infringe on the rights of other individuals. Liberty is guaranteed to us by our founding fathers and the constitution. Liberty is what drove millions of people here from Europe. No longer do people come here for freedom, but for economic prosperity.

@itsjustadeer

I thought you were going to give me a philosophy, give me one and ill dispute it or maybe agree with it.

[itsjustadeer]

@leedaomillz That's it? Go ahead? Which of Dr. Paul's philosophies do you dispute then?

[itsjustadeer]

@edvhou812 Yeah I know there's not one going to Vegas. And Madison to Twin Cities... I'm not sure how smart that is either. I just wish the government would stay out of it and promote the private sector to develop the high speed rail system. Like you said, we don't need them in most places, so let the private sector and free market choose where they are to be built.

[leedaomillz]

@itsjustadeer

Go ahead.

[itsjustadeer]

@leedaomillz I challenge you to dispute any of Ron Paul's philosophies. I'm sure you won't, because the blind and liberty-free ideology of people like you don't permit yourselves to listen to and take in common logic. It is impossible, when you are partially blind.

@tabber87 kennedy made a speech shortly before his murder that there was no place in this nation for secret societies. no coincidence that bobby kennedy was murdered also.
