Atheists and theists must work together end government’s entanglement with religion

Stars and StripesSecular Spice writes that “no matter what our personal beliefs are, we can, and should, join forces to preserve America’s freedom of religion.

Some view separation of church and state as an “atheist” agenda item, but many people of faith are also involved in the church-state movement. These people realize that a secular government protects their right to worship as they see fit. Keeping the government out of the God business helps all of us to be free to hold whatever religious belief — or nonbelief …This is why atheists and theists must join forces, working together to put an end to the government’s entanglement with religion.”

    I tend to agree. I am personally a Christian but I do not impose my beliefs on others (just as I believe that Jesus did not do this). I am also sick of these right-wing nutjobs telling me what my own Christian values ought to be.

    I’m one atheist who would like very much for the religious to shut their pie holes about things like civil rights, abortion and things of that nature.
