Why MOST Liberals Do Not believe in G-D

Intelligent Design

from JoeUser Forums

After long and careful thought I have come to a mind altering conclusion!, Liberals for the most part do not believe in G-D and want his name stricken from all public mention. I kept wondering why, what is it about G-d that seems to upset Liberals so much? Why would they go as far as wanting even our money changed?

What is it about the pledge of allegiance that strikes suck hatred in their hearts? The words "under G-d" seems to offend so many liberals. They have attacked cities that have a cross in their flag, I am a Jew and it does not offend me, Yet the same Liberals bend over backward to appease Muslims, make sure they have foot baths, at the tax payers expense so Muslims will not be offended.

Then suddenly the answer came to me like a bolt of lightning!

INTELLIGENT DESIGN, this is where we lose Liberals, because it takes INTELLIGENCE TO UNDERSTAND THE CONCEPT OF intelligent design and we know when it comes to intelligence the left is sorely lacking.

Such a simple answer to such a deep subject and it has been staring us in the face for so long.

Now if we could just change the name to Armani design or Tiffany design they would get it in an instant because as we know name brands mean everything to liberals. All style no substance.

Actually intelligent design really requires little to no intelligence to understand. :P It can be summed up as: "All this stuff was created by something." The end. :)

Now...liberals(the crazy ones) might actually be evidence against intelligent design...would a just and loving God create people like...that? ;)

I like being moderate, I can rip on everyone. :)

I think it's because they can't stand the fact that there might be someone out there that is more intelligent than they think they are. 

You know when you watch those reality tv shows and they vote off the island or out of the house the ones that might make them look bad because in all reality they are better than they are?

That's what they're doing.  They think they are voting God out of the house.  He's making them look bad. 

Boy are they deceived!

I am a "liberal" ~ boo hiss.  I believe in God but don't think that my beliefs should be forced on other people who don't believe the same way I do.  This is America not a theocracy.  People here have the choice to believe and worship however they want.  I don't think government should be in the business of promoting religion.

You guys just don't get it, do you?



This is how the world was designed - intelligently. If we're talking Intelligent Design in schools, I demand that equal time be given to the Flying Spaghetti Monster.

Have you been touched by its noodly appendage?

I have.

I'm a Conservative and I agree with you! That's not the problem. It's not about forcing it's about not letting.

We're pretty much allowed to worship as we wish. People are just trying to remove it from government and currency...although I really don't see the point in trying to do that. It's been there for years and doesn't really affect anything. Hey, if there were $100 bills with Satan on them, I'd still spend'em. :)

A higher intelligence level does not validate ones faith. The most intelligent humans that ever lived had no more insight into God than the most feeble minded amongst us.

No, religion has a long and continuing history of trying to impose limits on discovery. They were once quite successful at and it was a great victory for humanity to rid themselves of these oppressors of free thought. The Wedge document proves that this threat to seek the overthrow of materialism and it's cultural legacies and to confine the sciences to the dictates of religion is alive and well.

What is so unbelievable is these religious organizations still believe they can regain that level of control over a society of free willed individuals without going back to burning people at the stake. The hole argument over whether materialism has been bad is pointless, it was inevitable.

some would rather believe we are the results of a cosmic accident, than a Creator had a plan for us.

I am a conservative in some things, moderate in others. in no way do I ever want to see America turn to a theocracy!@ ever! WE are a people that are free to chose how we worship G-D or not to worship G-D at all, Theocracies are where your choices are very limited, switching from the state religion will get you killed. America for all her faults is still the greatest Place to live on the planet IMO. It pisses me off when people disrespect our country with no solutions.

I invited all the people that seem to hate our country to leave. I will pay for a one way ticket to the country of your choice, after you have filled out the paperwork giving up your citizenship to The United States of America,

As one of the non-believers (pending), I just want the government to be based on fact.  I grant that is a very hard thing to do since it's impossible to prove anything is "always" a fact since "always" isn't done happening yet.

 

But some things have more evidence backing them up than others.  It isn't black and white.  There's a LOT of grey area.  Even just an acknowledgement of the amount of grey area on all sides of the belief coin would suit me.  But when faith is involved, the faithful see no grey area - no area they might be wrong in.  I think that's dangerous.

 

Here is something I think is a fact - I admit the grey area of it, but at the end of the day, I'd be willing to put money on it being a fact.  I don't think a self proclaimed Wiccan could get into the white house regardless of political leadership ability.  I'm pretty damn sure an atheist that lets it be known they are an atheist will never see a high public office.  Why?  What difference does it make what religion someone is if they have a plan to fix something that is broken?  I'm pretty sure that the only way anyone ever gets into high public office in this day and age is by at least proclaiming they are Christian.  Notice how all the candidates "get seen" attending church at some point?  Does anyone really believe they are all that devout? 

 

This is why people get upset about having the word "God" on the money.  It isn't because they really care about money, it's because they see affiliation with a god, any god, as being irrelevant to fixing things that are broken.  I don't think anyone wants to eliminate yours or any god from existence (as if...) but they do want it to not be a criteria for being considered "able."  I  wish the belief issue had nothing to do with electing a good candidate for an office.
