I'm pretty sure you guys get to vote though. You totally have democratic power somewhere, right? I need to know this because I'm trying to understand the political situation in the U.S. Is Obama an autocrat?

Atheism is a religion
I don't believe in nor worship a superhuman with authority over a set of principles that are considered incontrovertibly true. I choose the principles I wish to believe based on my own reasoning, observation, and morals. I am my own moral authority. If that's a religion, it is a religion of one.

Quote:
God is Jewish
If there is a God, then I hope he's Jewish, because I don't want to go to hell. I think the idea of the Christian hell is immoral and irrational.

Quote:
America is not a Empire its simply the best country on gods green earth well besides Israel,Japan and Switzerland.
Okay, I will give you some leeway on that. America is an imperial power in that it exerts untoward political, economic, and military power amongst ostensibly sovereign states. The ideas of America as world policeman and American exceptionalism are more or less "empire" in a postmodern/neocolonial world.

Quote:
The quran commands muslims to kill Christians/Jews and Atheist. the reward for killing Christians/Jews and atheist is 72 virgins.
Where in the Quran does it say that?

What about the Canaanites? God loves genocide. What about God threatening to kill Moses because he hadn't yet performed genital mutilation on his son? God loves to cut the genitals of babies. What about Christians wanting to convert all the Jews or they'll go to hell? God is...um...wait, aren't the Jews the chosen people of God?

Quote:
you will not touch my articles cause you are a coward
I will address your articles if you answer a simple question. I promise. In a way, I already have touched them. Didn't you see that? You can't always get what you want, but if you try sometimes, you'll get what you need.

Quote:
the overthrow of the Government is Approved by the Constitution if the government seeks to destroy Americans Freedom
Interesting. You need a piece of paper to give you permission to do that? What does the Bible say about this?

Quote:
If Obama loves America why does he back Racist Sexist gun control and the Fairness Doctrine aka the Fascist Doctrine???
Citation please. I thought the Fascist Doctrine was the other name of the Bush Doctrine.

Quote:
Why has Comedy Central caved to Threats of violence by Muslims???
Which group(s) threatened them? I don't know this story.

Or do you only support the freedom of speech of select groups?
