I'm an atheist, and have rights under the constitution. Will you vote for candidates who will stand up for these rights as well as your own right to practice your religion as you see fit?

Well, i'm glad that uR not bashing us Christians like many other atheists (no offense :)and wouldn't support some of your choices when i grow up, but i would try to look out 4 yours and other's rights. No offense , but i'd probably vote 4 fellow Christians, but i would try 2 respect and protect the other's rights.

Loaded question
First Liberals always evaluate the best choice for a political office.
Next Redpublicans rarely vote outside party lines
And Third, Neo-Cons only obey what they hear on Fox News.
Lastly Democrats are so disorganized and diverse anything goes
My guess the best way to preserve everyones rights is to support the ACLU.
Even though for much of my life I did not understand exactly what the ACLU did now I do and agree that we need a non partisan watch dog protecting the Constitution for everyone.
And yes I do know the ACLU supported big business in the law suit that claimed lying was free speech. And they supported the tobacco companies. As well as the boat owners that wanted to tie up their boat to a tree while fishing.

Without question. In part of my life, I went to war to insure you retained that right. Being personally a Christian doesn't change anything. Add on: was just reading some of the other answers. Either something is going on with the laws that I don't know about, or some of these people are really paranoid. If you slap me across the mouth (or anywhere else) you need to be ready for combat. My "other cheek" has been slapped too often. As for atheists' rights, as long as you don't interfere with MY rights, you've got no problem, and I will support YOUR rights. If you get too radical, as some do, I will suggest you find an atheist country to live in. This one's taken. And by the way, I don't hate you. I feel sorry for you.

My opinion is we all have rights and I vote for the person that I think best represents me and my family, regardless of your rights. We are a democracy, which usually means that the majority rules. We have come to the point, here in the US, where we protect every groups rights, no matter how small, at the cost of the majority rights and to me that is not right.

I would not vote for ANY ATHEIST for anything.Not even a janitor
in a subway toilet..
If you are not responsible enough to go into the Military and help to protect your rights you should not have any rights.
You can not even get a good job if it is known that you are an atheist.
I personally would not protect you from a dog catcher.

Absolutely. It is your personal choice and for us to say that you are not living right is wrong. You are the only way that will have to answer for it, if at all and God, Allah, whatever exists. So yes, you should be protected by the constitution and BY christians.

All individuals ought to help religious freedom, even the Christians. we do no longer ought to trust the doctrine of alternative religions, yet we ought to continuously help the freedom. until eventually that's a freedom to kill anybody who disagrees llike the muslim extremists. .

I would probably not vote for someone that is not a Christian. But, I would also not vote for someone that would take away your rights as granted by the consitution.

No, they won't. In fact, you are the most hated category of American. Worse than gays, worse than muslims, worse than international terrorist. I'm right there with you.
We are the new evil!

Yes, you know why?
because I wont cut your head off.
If you smack a Christian in the mouth do you know what he'd do back to you?
Smack you harder. Then pray for your miserable butt
