  • The problem with the voting holiday idea, is many people are forced to work every holiday. They are generally the most marginalized people who work in the service industry as well. I used to be one. I was the general manager of a pizza shop and I worked every single holiday, football game, anything you can think of that will keep people from cooking and/or get them drinking. I also scheduled basically the entire staff for those days. It sucked. I told everyone from the start that holidays don't exist for you anymore in food, but it didn't stop women with tears in their eyes telling me they never expected they wouldn't be able to take their kids trick or treating.

  • I'm replying twice to the same comment but it just jogged a memory of porn I used to have on DVD of a bunch of random shit and one of the scenes it was a woman and two guys but the guys were painted green and they had green pterodactyl heads and wings.

  • I figured out that church was bullshit at a young age too. I was raised in West Virginia in shitty schools. We were still victims, even though we had the luck of being born perceptive enough to limit our victimization. Imagine if all the wasted hours we spent in school and church, we were learning instead.

    I had a science teacher in fifth grade who was a preacher as well. When we got to evolution all he had to say was "If we came from monkeys, why are there still monkeys, ever think about that?" He refused to teach the material. We skipped it.

  • Which leads to uninformed teenagers becoming pregnant, being forced to carry the child, and being stuck in poverty and ignorance for the rest of their lives as a result. This gives us uneducated workers and soldiers.

    Every live baby is a potential dead soldier. And the more education is destroyed the more popular that path will be.

  • Seriously. Anyone who says that without religion society would be rampant crime such as rape and murder is immediately suspect. They're especially claiming that they'd be out there raping and murdering except their religion keeps them in check. When's the last time you heard of an atheist committing horrible crimes? Stalin and Mao? We know that morality exists outside of a religious cage.

    And for all Stalin did, Putin has more power than ever, partially because he brought religion back.

  • I had an old boss tell me that Christians are the most persecuted people on earth. They truly believe it and get off on it. All while existing in a country where you almost have to be Christian or at least Jewish to be elected to national office. It's pure mass delusion propaganda.

  • Swearing on the bible is a choice made by the individual being sworn in. The actual swearing is to the Constitution and the interests of the people. You could swear on a copy of The Origin of Species if you wanted.

    The shit about having god on our money, motto, and pledge didn't come about until the red scare of the 1950s. A way to separate the country from the godless communists, and one of the earliest violations of separation of church and state that I'm aware of.

  • It's far bigger than tithe. The article explains that the white house god office is run by someone who will take $1000 payments to send angels to people. They brought on that fucking moron Ben Carson too, which makes me think this is more about persecution if gay and transgender people than anything else. Other than that they're just making sure all the grifters (religious and MAGA) on the same team.
