Why did/does man create religions?

Except you arent laughing in any form. You’ve in the past endorsed fear about Clinton wanting to get rid of christianity

I’m sorry but you seem to deny what you type A LOT

There is absolutely no communication of “amusenent” or “laughter”. You got caught defending evangelicals being concerned about government forcing beliefs. After railing against atheist concerns. You then played it off as “laughing at evangelicals” (which you didnt) - even though your posting history has you agreeing with them. It’s really transparent.

How are you defining hypocrisy? I said what I meant and I meant what I said. Perhaps if I spoke more slowly? What I noted in that above thread is that a group of people were trying to shame people into not supporting President Trump, accusing them of not following good Christian teachings. I pointed out the other candidate was not spouting good Christian teachings, either. What you think you “caught” me at is beyond me. First you complain that Christians voting their religious beliefs are forcing religion on you. Next you complain about Christians not voting according to what you believe their religious beliefs should be. Finally when I offer a possible explanation on what some Christians may be thinking, you call me a hypocrite. You are harder to please than my mother–and there was a time nothing could please her. Ah, the memories.

Here’s another doozy

Just admit you empathized with evangelicals fear/concern withHillary. .

But you just said you were laughing at people who thought it was possible

Even though you’ve said in other threads you share their beliefs.

This is ridiculous. How can we have a conversation if you consistently deny what your posts literally say?

No you didnt. You said we should lose sleep about libs and Clinton wanting to dismantle Chrustianity. Again, we can read your posts.

Awesome! We have made huge progress! Don’t worry about these laws being repealed. I think there is little interest in doing so. Don’t you?

Nope, not what I said. I will type more slowly. I said that many of us were laughing that Hillary thought she could change Catholic teaching. Personally, I doubted she could change Evangelical teachings either. But I did hear some Evangelicals did not want her as President.

I’ll repeat: I did not want her as President, either, but for entirely different reasons. And, no, just like I did not with President Trump, I didn’t investigate Mrs. Clinton’s degree of Christianity either. I was listening to the government policies each favored.

I never said I was worried about them being repealed. I was explaining why atheists care about religion in America. Please read the thread.

No. You said we should lose sleep over it.

You said she wanted to dismantle christianity

Who said this?

What should cause us sleepless nights is a left wing that wants to bully and shame Christians into voting for a candidate who wants to abolish Christianity’s–especially Catholic–central teachings and tenets. If you want Christians to vote for your candidate, then perhaps next time call on him/her to support religious freedom and to respect religious teachings and beliefs. Otherwise count on Christians to vote for the adulterer who respects religious freedoms and Christian teachings

Alright, you Christian tenants–you are hereby abolished! (Shouldn’t tenants be evicted not abolished.)

I know…you don’t understand the joke. However, it keeps me laughing. What else do you have?

And I’m sorry you don’t understand a thing I say. Still, it’s amusing. Every good joke employs a twist. Keep 'em coming!

Oh right you were joking in that other thread too. I see the pattern now. I’ll just assume everything you say is a joke.

Werent you just preaching about “honesty” and forced servitude?

On the topic of Christians forcing their belief on others, here’s a bit about US Military academies doing it.

Keep dodging.

You said we should lose sleep over libs wanting to bully you into supporting a candidate that wants to abolish christianitys core tenets.

Funny.

Cause in this thread you said you’ve never judged hillarys christianity. You’ve also said you find it amusing that people are concerned.

Holy contradictions batman

And by funny, I mean it’s a joke.

Look, you are jumping to conclusion after conclusion. It’s funny. There were two separate incidents. Listen carefully. One was where I was TALKING with a group of Catholics and we were laughing about anyone (even Hillary Clinton) thinking they could change Catholic teaching. Trust me, if a determined group of Catholic Middle School students couldn’t change Catholic teachings, a mere candidate for President hadn’t a chance.

SECOND: I was responding here IN WRITING to people who were wondering why Christians would vote for Donald Trump instead of President Clinton. I offered an explanation of why some did not want Mrs. Trump.

These two separate events have prompted you to call me a hypocrite, which I find truly amusing. Do you at least understand why I am laughing? Apparently I can’t laugh with my fellow Catholics about someone changing Catholic teachings and then later offer fellow posters a reason why some Christians might prefer to vote for Donald Trump rather than President Clinton. I don’t know whether you disapprove of my laughter among fellow Catholics or whether you disapprove of me offering a reason why some might prefer one candidate to the other.

I’m not jumping to any conclusions. You are saying what is convenient for you here, even though it contradicts everything you’ve said in other threads.

Why should we think Hillary wanted to abolish Christianity?
