Comment is free: Losing their religion
commentisfree.guardian.co.uk — The Baha'is in Egypt have been deprived of their civil rights for many years. Now, the Supreme Administrative Court has decreed that they cannot put "Baha'i" or "other" on their state ID cards. This puts them in an impossible situation.

This is what makes any and all religions discriminatory in one way or another, and why the public use of religious opinion and the display of any religious labels and symbols should be against the law.
To move ahead as society we must first put away all that keeps us separate and divided.
I myself as an anti-theist would not be immune to my god bashing opinions but at least I would not have to hear the god things or see the lame decorations that get me started in the first place.
Just imagine....
My comment usually goes like this:
"....I cannot see how any sensible adult can believe in fairy tales because some, long and lame, books were wrote about the supposed incidences. All the god ideas started out as stories passed on by word of mouth, were later written down, and passed on to later generations. We all know other similar giant stories, elf stories, demon stories, magic stories, and god stories that are now considered fun little fairy tales we can now sing to our children. What makes yours any different? If there had been 1000 pages written about the Flying Spaghetti Monster and your parents taught you it was real from birth would you still believe it, with blind faith, because the self-promoting story says you must believe? Stop standing up for senseless crap you should have questioned before you started blindly believing it..."
If god truly does exist he would be pissed. If I had to hear all the bitching and see all the killing you did, yours would be the first ass to suffer. Burn in hell? Thank you, but under your evil gods I think everyone ends up Bar-B-Qued.
Even you theists can agree that you would be happier if we atheists did not give our two cents.
I say, "You first!"
When you stop waving your crap in our faces, and stop complaining about how you are being suppressed, repressed, oppressed, or depressed maybe then we atheists will stop trying to convince you how we learned to see without looking through blind faith spectacles.
I just want people to learn how to live without groups, and cliques.
I want people to stop killing the exact same human they could have been if they were given a different geography at birth. We are all Earthians, all human and yet we kill out of spite because someone a long time ago was stupid enough to write down something just dumb enough for millions of idiots to believe.
If you don't believe what I do, please feel free to comment below.- DerProfi, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1You should be ashamed of your ridiculous moral equivalence games. Baha'i do not discriminate against any other religion and never have. Wake up and smell your own dhimmitude.
