No. I don't personally believe in god, but if it makes someone feel good or gives them reassurance in their lives why would I take that away? If someone can't handle a little unwanted evangelizing then they're mentally weak and I wouldn't suppress any beliefs just to protect the intellectually inferior.

My answer to this question is an emphatic NO. I would NOT support the suppression or destruction of religion/Christianity in America by means of armed and/or lethal force. I whole-heartedly believe in religious freedom. I ALSO believe in free speech and I use that freedom to communicate to others the irrationality of their faith.

Here is a serious answer.. it.. religion is so out of control that people will have to start making illegal or the human race will be made extinct... it's not a joke... religion destroys the balance of nature... nature is the laws of life... and instead of letting the human race destroy nature and ultimately earth.. nature has seperated all other things from humans ... that is why there is great illness in humanity while the desserts heal.. there is great illnesses in humanity... if an illness hits the animal kingdom.. it is quickly resolved.. and nature is getting better at knowing what deserve to continue life on earth.. and as long as humans are choosing the slavery of religion over the freedom nature provides.. they are worth nothing to this planet..

No. Religion is losing credibility every day, and the more ridiculous things it does (like the "Creation Museum") will lose it even more. Give it time; it will self-destruct. The more advances made by science, the less people need to rely on supernatural answers. I can be patient. Besides, suppression of dissent by force is a tool of the religionists. There's no need to stoop to their level.

Absolutely not. Christianity/religion is not the enemy; fanaticism is. Many Christians are reasonable people going about their lives. They have no intent on pushing their beliefs on others. Religion in America has been responsible for a lot of great things particularly in charitable causes.
Even fanatics have every right to say what they want to say. Suppressing them would pretty much make us hypocrites.

No. Not by armed or lethal force. I support what we're already doing. Legislating and educating for the eradication of faith and religion.

I'm Buddhist, so ummm I 'm gonna have to take a pass on any armed or lethal force for anything.
Besides I find value in many religious teachings.

properly, both make your own factor, or discover your factor. what's up with factors anyhow? stay, Love, giggle. discover your own objective, do what you sense is ideal. Atheism is in basic terms one truth of disbelief...something of that is as a lot as you. scary isn't it? Having to make your concepts up a majority of this stuff for your self? there is the finished thing about atheism. no longer all and multiple might want to be atheist, because some won't be able to trust they ought to discover their very personal way in this international. although the actual question is, regardless of if there become no *factor* might want to that modify something? regardless of in case you imagine there should be a level, that would not create a God. in case you extremely opt for the reality, you look on the info, settle on the reality, and stay with the outcomes. You dont look on the info, look at with outcomes, and then settle on to reject the reality because the outcomes are too radical. no longer asserting atheism is the "truth" because i'm no longer a fan of absolute statements, yet when it become, then in basic terms no longer like the outcomes shouldn't provide up you from embracing it; logically it really is. some human beings won't be able to psychologically undergo that burden, and so ought to embody faith.

I would never support lethal force, for any reason. If anything it should always be the last resort especialy when every safe option has been exhausted.

Never.
It must be by logic and reasoning.
Suppression of faith by force would not be accepted by Atheists, as they are too intelligent and not Hypnotized/brain-washed to act in a foolish/idiotic manner towards the foolish/gullible/ignorant human beings.
