  • Atheists who are liberal are some of the biggest proponents of free speech! I consider myself an atheist who has some liberal leanings, and I would never, ever burn a book! I don’t know anyone who is an atheist liberal who would EVER burn a book. There is no connection between social progressives and Nazis. It’s like I always say, if you bring up Nazis in an argument, YOU LOSE the argument!

  • The cross is offensive to non-christians because (and I can‘t believe it’s not obvious to you) it is the symbol for a belief system that states if you don’t believe the tenets of its message, then you will suffer everlasting pain and torment in hell. While everyone is free to choose whether or not to believe these tenets (thanks to our secular and non-religious constitution), it still says that you will go to hell if you don’t believe. This is offensive in the extreme, because it says I don’t care who you are or what you do with the time you have on this earth, you are going to hell if you don’t accept Jesus.

  • All I know is that there’s so much hate, ignorance, and certainty (something Hitler had) in the comments supporting Israel (whatever that means). People need to look at what is happening on the ground in Israel and the Palestinian territories. My geography teacher has been to Jenin, a small city, but the plight of the Palestinians is evident just by watching a 15 minute slideshow of a geographer who studied the city structure and roads of one Palestinian city (Jenin).

    And People need to remember that there are and were Palestinian Christians who have suffered human rights violations at the hands of Israeli government policy.

  • The backbone of Israel’s apartheid is formed by a set of discriminatory laws, including the 1950 Law of Return (1950), Absentee Property Law (1950), Citizenship Law (1952), World Zionist Organization-Jewish Agency “Status” Law (1952), the Jewish National Fund Law (1953), and Basic Law: Israel Lands (1960), which reserve the full rights of “nationals” in Israel to the state’s Jewish citizens and confers public status on Zionist “national” institutions which work for the exclusive Jewish benefit. The same laws exclude the 1948 Palestinian refugees from citizenship, confer second-class citizenship on Palestinians who have remained in Israel, facilitate confiscation of Palestinian land and its transfer to Jewish ownership, and bar Palestinian restitution claims.
