Smile. I love it when atheists start trying to lie. It doesn't work, incidentally. I have only a slight idea of which particular misrepresentation you're trying to pull, but it hardly matters. Christians don't get to pass hate-laws, and never have had the chance to do so, since they don't possess political power. The very terminology belongs to the politically correct left.

Uh, no. You are the one who's misrepresenting. Chri-stain fundies have misinterpreted ALL of atheism (which is their lack of belief in a god). You also have misinterpreted all of the ideas behind science. What misrepresentation do you think atheists are trying to pull?
That the Bu¥Bull condones slavery and murder?
That Christianity is a religion?
Both of those are true, by the dubz :3
"Christians don't get to pass hate-laws, and never have had the chance to do so, since they don't possess political power."
I'm still doing the research on the "Jim Crow" laws. So far I've found that the main political pressure for their passage came from the Christian organisations Ku Klux Klan and the Southern Baptist Association. I'll let you know if I find any NON-Christian supporters which is not likely in a nation that historically was 97% Christian.
We're not the ones who have to resort to lies and misrepresentations, reality has an atheist bias. Christians in the US are the only ones who get to pass laws, hateful ones or not, as you're in the absolute majority in all governmental bodies.
When you point your finger, you have three pointing back at you. In other words, I know you are, but what am I.

Where the fuck do you live, Roger? Because in America, the exact opposite of what you stated, is true.
So, let me try to get your beliefs straight. On the one hand, America is and has always been a Christian nation, created by Christian founders, build on a Christian document, and made up of a majority of Christians. But on the other, Christians can't pass hate-laws and have never had the chance to do so since they don't possess political power and presumably never have.
The doublethink... it hurts my brain.
Christians don't get to pass hate-laws, and never have had the chance to do so, since they don't possess political power.
What? What about Arizona passing a law making it legal to discriminate against gays based on religious beliefs? And they tried to pass a similar law here in Kansas, which it passed the Senate but luckily failed in the House. And don't get me started on all the anti-abortion legislation that's been passed lately, forcing women to have an ultrasound wand stuck up their hoo-ha before they're allowed to have an abortion. And why isn't same sex marriage legal across all 50 states? And don't even get me started on Uganda.
Actually, I think he's right, Christians have no political power. If they did, we wouldn't be cutting food stamps and other help for the poor. The House majority Representatives who call themselves Christian while doing everything in their power to give to the rich by taking what crumbs the poor have left don't count.
So, you live in the UK, a country where non-Christians and Christians of the wrong sort were persecuted for centuries; where there is a state church and the head of state has to be a member; where senior members of that church get to sit ex-officio in the legislature; and where the doings of senior Christians are reported by the media by a multitude of writers on religious affairs. And you tell me Christians have no political power?
Christians don't get to pass hate-laws, and never have had the chance to do so, since they don't possess political power.
Then how do you explain the fact that 33 states ban gay marriage and most states allow workplace discrimination against gays?
CHURCH OF ENGLAND.
Roger, one of your kings literally helped split from Catholicism to support his extremely sketchy marriage practices.
Don't even get me STARTED on the Troubles.
Put simply, you're a lying fuck.
No, no, no, none of you get it. There is only one Christian in the world, and his name is Roger Pearse.
Christians are covered by US hate crime laws, too. If a gang of Jews or Muslims beat up a Christian or spray-painted a church and made anti-Christian slurs, they'd be charged with a hate crime just as if it were the other way around.
"misinterpretation"
You've just admitted - in one word - that the Bible isn't literal, and therefore isn't the 'Word of God', but is nothing more than the drug-fuelled ramblings (Revelation proves that) of a bunch of Bronze Age goatfuckers with ideas above their stations.
Thank you for walking into the argumental Claymore mine array of your own making, Roger P. Arse. >:D
"Christians don't get to pass hate-laws, and never have had the chance to do so, since they don't possess political power. The very terminology belongs to the politically correct left."
Finally admitting defeat, Roger(ed)? Because you know for a fact that the Bible isn't admissable as evidence in a court of law - the only crucible of forensic, materialist Reality (as proved by Kitzmiller vs. Dover) - and therefore the Creation is now superior to the Creator (otherwise he would appear in physical form right now, and make a Fedceral Case out of everything)?
We've won . Suck it, bitch. >:D
Smile. I love it when atheists start trying to lie.
Yes, we know you have 2,000 years more experience than us in lying.
Politically correct? Since when is that a BAD thing? What are we supposed to go around being assholes to people who aren't rich, white, straight, American and Christian? As for Christians not having political power? Bull. Fucking. Shit. There's the examples Sangfroid mentioned, and for a while in Kentucky they had a law passed that anyone who is not a Christian should be arrested! No political power, my ass! The *true* Christians (as in the ones that actually live up to WWJD) have no political power, but nominal Christians do have political power.
VA just passed a law permitting transgendered athletes to play on school sports teams. The catch is, the kid has to have had gender reassignment surgery or hormonal therapy, which is damn near impossible to get before you're 18. Our legislature still thinks gender is in the pants, not the brain, and mutilation of minors is necessary to prove their sincerity.
ok...so you won't hate women, you won't hate gays, you won't hate anyone that does not fit your cultural ideal? really? i don't believe you, but i hope you prove me wrong x
What...what are you even saying?
@Sangfroid: No, it hasn't passed into law yet, and the current prediction is that the governor will kill it.
But that it got that far is worrying.
"I love it when atheists start trying to lie. It doesn't work,..."
Although, apparently it does work when theists lie. I'm assuming it does because they do it so much. And they don't seem to have to try too hard.
Still the same ol' asshat, eh roger?
@Violet_Beauregarde "Politically correct? Since when is that a BAD thing?"
Well, when it's done in excess it does come off as insincere politeness at best, patronizing at worst. Just don't over do it.
Thank you.
Christians don't get to pass hate-laws, and never have had the chance to do so, since they don't possess political power.
ORLY? So how do you explain the stuff being passed in the Dakotas, Arizona, Wisconsin, Texas, etc. Have you been living under a rock with all those wormy creepy-crawly things?
@Jewnior Spokesman
"Roger lives in the UK (nowhere near me, luckily)."
That explains everything now, especially his past quotes.
Must hurt, knowing that recently same-sex marriage became legal here - and your precious Christian Church of England had dropped it's opposition to such last year - eh Roger P. Arse?!

...as we loot & pillage all your rights, until you're only left with the right to be Butthurt ?! Yarr-harr! 'Tis good to be a Pirate, eh me hearties?! Give Mr. P. Arse here a good Rogerin' ! [/Pastafarian] X3
'Saa! Kaizoku no jikan da!' (It's time for some piracy!) [/"Moretsu Pirates"]
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
