Well thankfully god wrote back to her, I hear he usually can't get to every request.

The NRA told me guns were a god given right. So, why would god give them to people if he didn't mean for them to use them.

Go home. You're drunk.

God also gave man reason, but it's quite clear that some of us aren't capable of using it correctly.

Taking God out of our schools in the 1950's has wrecked our country.

I thought you said God is everywhere? Now he's not allowed in schools? Can't the Almighty One just break in and sit there whenever he chooses?

This is a better country without your silly superstitions infecting our schools.

This betrays a gross misunderstanding of any kind of basic theology.

I'm not even religious and I see the benefit of God in schools. Chill out, Rex.

Good lord... it was said in jest.
I quite understand basic theology... even enough to understand that the Christian concept of the Trinity is pure nonsense. :)
But, that aside, here's a basic truth that fundies are reluctant to admit: this government has never and could never outlaw prayer in school. Every student is free to pray whenever he likes.... if he does so to himself without disrupting others.

And I see why it's bad:
- Subscription to notions without evidence is contrary to the scientific method and thus to knowledge acquisition.
- Subscription to the notion that some sky overlord will someday make everything super cool diminishes the quest for practical solutions by humans. It also diminishes the importance of the real world and promotes acceptance of unhealthy practices and conditions.
- Subscriptions to doctrines whose roots are fear-based rather than optimism-based are not promotive to social cooperation.
- etc.

I am going to laugh on Judgement Day when I get to watch you tell God He doesn't exist and He can't judge you.
I likely shouldn't but I can't help it.

I'd say that I see the inherent danger of injecting anti-God dogma in the schools.
I am not 'religious' in that I don't evangelize for any specific religious domination. But I absolutely, completely, believe that God exists. To me, it basically boils down to 'conscience.' In fact, I believe the Biblical 'Genesis' moment was man's attempt to define when God, in the form of Conscience, entered the evolutionary makeup of mankind.
This nation was founded on the principle that God (or Creator) was the motivating factor for individual freedom, and that this government was being created to protect, rather than grant, those freedoms.
Nobody was required to be a member of any religious denomination or sect, or to even outwardly assert any belief at all. But it was also universally understood that 'religious' people were overwhelmingly "good" people. Certainly being 'religious' was never a reason for rejection, for public mockery, for demands to 'shut up,'
Now, we have reversed all that - and the farther we retreat from out founding principles, the more decadent, violent, insufferable our society becomes.

You need to read a book called “ Brotherhood Of Darkness” by Dr Stanley Monteith. I’m serious buddy please read that book. He delves deep into how that was done and who did it and why.

You subscribe to a political ideology that has zero evidence of success = and mountains of evidence that it results in abject failure = universal misery for the population and existential dependence on some mortal 'leader.'
You subscribe to the notion that millions upon millions of people who believe in something greater than their own daily interests represent an obstacle to your dream for building a 'brave new world' that caters to everyone's transient urge de jour.
You subscribe to a notion that is antithetical to your stated goals. You promote policies whose basis is fear rather than optimism, that lead to social division rather than cooperation, that sees the opposite of truth as your guiding principle. In fact your most effective tool is in dividing people into as many different cults as possible and creating fear in each that the 'others' are out to get them.
You are the biggest fraud on Tiger Droppings.

The cause is the moral relativism rot that has been pushed by the left for decades.
Well that and wishing crimes away with the stroke of a pen to lower those minority juvenile arrest records
