Originally posted by JimL View PostWrong again, like I have said, I see little difference between the two terms, whether one is claiming agnosticism or atheism, they are a non-believer, so I feel no need to change it. You all know where I stand, you're just being disingenuous because, well, because thats the way you are.
The only one being disingenuous is you. Luckily we don't really care what nontheists call themselves here on tweb, we only worry when a nontheist calls themselves a theist or someone calls themselves a Christian when they are not.

We can see how congress had chaplains and had prayer right in the capitol -- and STILL DOES. Why is it OK for Congress to have chaplains and prayers but not schools?Why didn't they keep religion out of the capitol if they wanted to separate church and state?Why didn't they admonish the schools that they need to keep prayer out because they need to keep religion out of government?Why did they put the 10 commandments IN THE SUPREME Court where it still is today?Everything they did shows that they had no problem with religion in government. There was no separation of church and state. The only thing they were worried about is an official state church and congress interfering with someone practicing their religion. Which is exactly what they are doing today. Interfering.Jorge: Functional Complex Information is INFORMATION that is complex and functional.

Originally posted by Sparko View PostMy point is that the people who wrote the first amendment did not find it necessary to remove religion from government, so that is clearly NOT what they meant, despite what the supreme court claims they meant today.Last edited by Roy; 10-24-2017, 11:39 AM.Jorge: Functional Complex Information is INFORMATION that is complex and functional.

Originally posted by Roy View PostIt is not necessary to remove voluntary religion from government in order to ensure that involuntary religion is imposed on the populace."As for my people, children are their oppressors, and women rule over them.

There is no such thing as innocence, only degrees of guilt.

Originally posted by Roy View PostBecause congress are choosing optional prayer attendance for themselves, not compulsory attendance for others.
And congress is opened up each session with a prayer, with everyone in attendance. You seem to be just making things up as an attempt to bolster your view.

Originally posted by JimL View PostWrong again, there is little difference between agnosticism and atheism, there's a big and obvious difference between Christianity and and atheism whether you can see the differences or not.
