A group of atheists unveiled a monument to their nonbelief in God on Saturday to sit alongside a granite slab that lists the Ten Commandments in front of the Bradford County courthouse.As a small group of protesters blasted Christian country music and waved "Honk for Jesus" signs, the atheists celebrated what they believe is the first atheist monument allowed on government property in the United States. 4951
That is terrific. Whoever allowed it did the right thing. It doesn't harm anyone.BTW, many people think atheists worship or believe in nothing. That's not true. Atheists believe in intellect and even worship it.To paraphrase Thomas Jefferson - Beware the atheists, for they are as zealous in their beliefs as the most strident religious adherent. 4951
That's true. The point is atheists rely on intellect. But sometimes intellect fails. Intellect, the soul (mind) is influenced by emotion. People tend to overestimate their own intellect.I don't sit around waiting for God to protect me if a hurricane is coming. God helps those who help themselves, and often God's help comes in the form of inspiration. But God helps people when hurricanes come. It may be by the simple inspiration of "love thy neighbor". Then the neighbor you loved helps you when it's storm clean up time. 4951
