Rep. Monique Davis (D-Chicago) interrupted atheist activist Rob Sherman during his testimony Wednesday afternoon before the House State Government Administration Committee in Springfield and told him, "What you have to spew and spread is extremely dangerous . . . it's dangerous for our children to even know that your philosophy exists!
"This is the Land of Lincoln where people believe in God," Davis said. "Get out of that seat . . . You have no right to be here! We believe in something. You believe in destroying! You believe in destroying what this state was built upon."

Christian tolerance ? Are atheists persecuted? Is God real?

These and other questions will be answered in this thread !

p.s. Lincoln wasnt Christian, and niether were many of the founding fathers, and if only there existed a document where early on it was said in plain black and white that this isnt a chrisitan nation!

Oh wait! there is! the Treaty of Tripoli!

The government of the United States of America is not in any sense founded on the Christian Religion," -Treaty of Tripoli, 1797

Arghh! those muslims got us good, they foresaw this argument and pre-empted us and forced the founding fathers to write that ! ! damn them all!!
