We have to realize the meaning of what the Founding Fathers stated in the Declaration Of Independence: "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. — That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, ..."
If we believe our rights are something that can be bestowed by government, then what government gives, it can take away. If you choose to be an atheist in your private life, go for it, it's your god-given right! If you want to impose that belief on society you are proposing the potential loss of your rights! A little humility and tolerance keeps the tyrants away. People who don't get it are the same one's who would go behind the back of a 4 year-old's parents to tell little Suzie that there is no Santa Clause. Yeah she's crying but the spoiler feels justified and self-righteous.

Why Atheism is incompatable with Freedom
Here's the bottom-line of my thesis: "If somehow it could be definitely proven, beyond doubt, that there is no God, we would need to pretend to have never seen the evidence and agree as a society to continue to believe".

2010 and counting...
Just two years, eleven months and 20 days left before 12/21/2012, when the planet heats up from the middle (from a solar microwave-oven phenomenon) and starts rearranging it's tectonic plates, thus causing major catastrophic quakes, volcanoes, polar shifts and all manner of mayhem! Also from the sun is a repeat of the 1859 Carrington Event, where a huge solar flare erupts in the direction of earth and causes a massive geomagnetic burst that fries all electronics which takes a few years to recover from. And then we'll have to get those damn Mayans to start a new calendar again! I wonder how much they're gonna charge for that?
