Didn't people (like me) take the time out of their day to explain why this was an asinine point in the past? I think it had something to do with "a few men from a long time ago" versus "millions of people active today".

Anyway, the term better represents atheists, because they are completely concerned with secular, human-orientated projects. Humanism for any pope, even a worldly one, must necessarily be second-tier in importance.
Then why is is when today I call America a democracy I get attacked by the libertarian crowd? Like you pointed out, today the majority of Americans would call our country a democracy. So then the strict libertarians are wrong. American is a democracy.

Sorry to go off the OP. Just bugs me that select people can jump around rules and claim anything they'd like because being an atheist gives them some kind of freedom.


What do you say to an atheist who sneezes?
