People don't show enough sympathy and repect to the innocents that died that day, and will let the ones we are at war at build a temple of sucess...show some freaking respect

That does look kind of far...

Anyway, I don't think it would make much difference if a country was entirely atheist. There's always something to fight about.

The human right to free religious expression trumps the want for a shallow and self-centered idea of "respect" any day.

I'm no hater, but wtf are they doing building a mosque that close to where the twin towers used to be? Regardless of what their intentions are, these people building the mosque must realize that it's not fitting to build it that close to the site where terrorists killed thousands of people in the name of Islam. Common courtesy, man...F1_2004

[QUOTE="FlipYapTheGrunt"]

[QUOTE="Theokhoth"] No, YOU show some freaking respect. Muslims died on 9/11 too, you know; with you acting like they're celebrating their victory with this mosque (something they aren't doing at all) you're essentially saying "YOUR losses aren't important!"

[QUOTE="jaydough"][QUOTE="FlipYapTheGrunt"] Only 64 muslims died in 911 ( god rest their souls ) A 15 story mosque looking down at the cemetery of Ground Zero in the location of a building partially destroyed in the 911 Islamic attack is wrong. It is indecent. The Burlington Building were they are builing the structure, is Ground Zero, for it was damaged in the attacks....Why the hell are we discussing a mosque in a atheist topic?

Don't really care either way. Though most atheists sort of piss me off, even though I sort of am one.

[QUOTE="FlipYapTheGrunt"]

[QUOTE="jaydough"] So could you.jaydough

after some consideration. I think this is a fabulous idea. Let's gather all the atheists to one spot then slaughter them.EMOEVOLUTION

No I have never had any religious problems in my life.

Considering civilization is built upon religion, that's not likely to work out so well.

[QUOTE="jaydough"]

[QUOTE="FlipYapTheGrunt"] This arguing is pointless, we all have the right to our own opinion no matter how much we disagree with each other.

My ideal "atheist" nation would still be secular, which means you'd get religious people living there after awhile. The only way to make a nation "all-atheist" is to criminalize theism of any kind, and I don't think that's really the kind of place you want to live in.

what would that change ? the religiouse people already dont have any hand over atheists.gubrushadow

:lol: By all means they do, a very strong hand in the states.

:lol: By all means they do, a very strong hand in the states.

Aside from the constitution, most if not all the laws created are done so with strong influence from religious morals and views. For example, the largest reason against gay marriage in america is due to that of most religions frowning down upon it. Not to mention at this point in time it's impossible to get elected or even considered to be president unless you are Christian. Stronger examples can be seen in other countries albeit with a dash of zealotry and extreme positions which is kind of an unfair example.

I'm hesitant to say that it would be a good idea because it's not like atheists are better friends and/or better citizens than theists. It would be nice to have something in common with every other citizen, but that doesn't necessarily mean that I would be better off there than in a nation with theists in it. Ultimately I would say no to your question.

Atheists can be just as close-minded as religious people. It wouldn't make any difference.
