Florida County Makes Atheists Cry
If you've followed the many hundreds of lawsuits filed by atheist groups such as the Freedom From Religion Foundation, you may have noticed that atheists want to have their cake and eat it too.
By claiming to be a "non-religion" (after all, they don't believe in anything), they pose as being self-fulfilled sophisticates above the petty religious frays of others. Yet let some inspired Christian display a cross, the Ten Commandments or a Bible, or -- Flying Spaghetti Monster forbid -- pray in public, then all of a sudden their formerly dead religious sensibilities rise from the grave and demand blood.
Why is this OK?
In other words, they want all the perks of religious respectability with none of the responsibilities. They are the godless inquisitors who feel that they alone are qualified to judge all other religions.
It's been a profitable game as courts have often gone along with the atheists' unreligiously inspired crusade to crush the infidels -- particularly Christians -- and drive them from the public eye, leaving the landscape empty of all -- except the atheists who will dictate allowable religious observance for everyone else.
So it's more than a little gratifying to see the Brevard County Commission in Florida vote unanimously to bar atheists from giving the opening invocation at commission meetings because the invocation is defined as "an opening prayer, presented by members of our faith community."
Now it's important to note that the commissioners didn't ban atheists from participating in meetings, offering them time in the public comments portion of the agenda, right alongside any other non-faith organization, be it Shriners, Girl Scouts or some guy complaining about his neighbor's cherry tree. Local atheists are not pleased.
