They point out that Christians quote from the Bible. Yet in their hypocrisy they forget their quotes:
A woman can do with her body as she pleases (even to the detriment of a baby)
Evolution is now a scientifically proven Law.
The world is over-populated.
Homosexual acts are natural and without adverse physical effects.
At least think freely and come up with some new ones. While we must accept the Bible by faith, you have to lie to yourself to believe your propaganda. Which is worse?

So you're on the internet now, Osama?
Doesn't the fact that you have to lie so much to support your beliefs tell you something about the quality of those beliefs? It should.

The question isn't if we have free will, but *how* do we have free will when physics would seem to imply a deterministic universe. I do not know how close scientists are to solving this problem, but it appears we *do* have free will, even if we can't exactly explain why. I do know that I will often leave my house with the intention of going out to eat, but having no decision of where I am going to go. The first decision is if I will turn right or left as I leave my subdivision. So, sometimes random traffic affects my decision. All answers on Y!A and everywhere else are void of logic and are fallacious attempts at maintaining a position rooted in ignorance! Your question, and all questions, are equally so.

well, let's see...
"A woman can do with her body as she pleases (even to the detriment of a baby)"
that's politics, not religion. it's a right-wing (not necessarily christian) parody of the liberal (not necessarily atheist) position. 'propaganda', in other words. let's try it this way, instead:
"the government has no right to tell me what I can and cannot do with my body."
oh, and also, "a human baby is a very different thing from a small, accidental accumulation of cells"
"Evolution is now a scientifically proven Law."
uh-huh. that's a fact. next.
The world is over-populated.
ya think?!
(where is the controversy in these last two! I don't see it.)
"Homosexual acts are natural and without adverse physical effects."
natural? sure. check the penguins.
without adverse physical effects? who's claiming that? certainly not the (liberal) lubrication industry...
stop confusing 'propaganda' with facts you don't like.

You mean you are only supposed to spread christian propaganda?
Most Atheists are free thinker, just in case you mistaken atheists to be the likes of a stupid lot praying to a 2000 year old book written by men to control minds and claiming they are the superior lot (I am not talking about christianity, I mean in general).
An atheist can be a socialist and a free-thinker too ..... basically the only common things amongst the atheist are, they do not believe in god, others are up to individual :P.

Evolution IS a proven fact. Get used to it. Disprove scientifically what's shown in the source or quit making silly claims.

Stating the above is much more influential than stating some quotes from a story book over and over. Yeah you have faith, faith in your fear of looking beyond a God to answer all of your questions.

Err...conservative atheist here. We don't all agree on anything. So you really can't make any blanket statements other than we don't believe in any god.
What you are getting is responses to specific questions from guys that those are big issues for, but they aren't for all atheists.

100% PC tolerant (except toward those right-winged conservative "fundie" christians).
What will be the next must accept (believe) liberal agenda the liberals will be told to believe to be a "free thinker"?

I wonder whether "Socialist and Atheist Propaganda" might be defined as "stuff with which you do not agree."
