I’m a black atheist, so I have an inclination to be more attracted to the civil rights movement and the more current movement of trying to convince Americans that atheists are regular people and the separation of church and state is real lol.
On a level of principle, I see the gay rights movement as the same as the civil rights movement, which is why I’m so passionate about that as well.
I just saw this on facebook and had to say something:
”the more man plays god the less god will be involved and if u take god out of the constitution you are left with selfish immoral dictator with ungodly agendas”
Then, after politely explaining that this is kind of irrational:
”Is it though ? the constitution outlines your god given rights. the reason those rights can’t be taken is because god gave them to us removing god would thus remove your rights. have you seen how the gov treats people in jail or immigrants that don’t have rights ?imagine what would happen if you had no god to protect your rights? no freedom…. is the tip of the iceberg the founding fathers purposefully used god to set up this country I’m not a Christian and I believe in evolution but any astrophysist will say the evidence for a Creator is very compelling and none the less your rights in America come from a congressional belief in god. Just saying. Also you can look it up it’s no secret the question of a belief in god can make or break a president because if he or she doesn’t believe then why would he or she protect your rights…?”
