As one atheist to another, shut the f*** up. I really hate when someone tries to push their beliefs onto others.
This pisses me off.
It would be something if 'they' made it mandatory that you had to stop and prey in front of it, now that would be something.
Why or what makes Dave Silverman think he has any moral authority to even have an opinion as to what goes on at or into the 9/11 memorial. Is he part of the 9/11 families or one of the 9/11 emergency workers? If not, shut the f*** up.
I really wish people would go and look at what Thomas Jefferson actualy said about a wall between church and state.
Atheist like to quote what is called "The Establishment Clause" - "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion..." But, they conveniently forget the next part of the First Anendment, "...or prohibiting the free exercise thereof..."
Dave are you saying that religious people can't apply for government grants? Should we then take out all religious references in the Smithsonian? Are you trying to censor what happened after 9/11? Just because you don't agree with what some religious people did after 9/11 doesn't give you the right to negate what they did. As soon as you limit, because of government involvement, when and where someone can prey or practice their religion you are using the government to prohibit the free exercising thereof. Just as the government has no business tell you when to practice or not practice religion, neither is it any of yours.
Sigh...,

Meh... They are doing it because they CAN, and if they lose, so what... no skin off their noses, and a little 'free' publicity... And God forbid, a Christian is actually allowed to do anything...
ReplyDeleteI have to agree with you on this one Josh. This is just really sad. :(
