Please, refute;
locke argued, in his second treatise on civil government that there was not a divine right of kings, but rather rights were God given. (you know OF COURSE  that jefferson lifted the line "endowed by our creator with certain inalienable rights"...
oh i know its easier to say i am some fundamentalist creationist . yeah you're rational
...once again proving that atheists and fundamentalist taliban types aretwo sides of the same coin.
For your uninformed, narrow minded information: I am episcopalian, brought up in a secular urban (as in the most cosomopolitian city in the US) household, and oh never mind it's easier to keep your petty little view of 'the bad guys'
how does the physicists minister posted above fit into your narrow little view of people? |
For the benefit of others, those more interested in facts than in dogma, most of history has been a steady moving away from superstition towards science. Look up "god of the gaps" to understand the radical shift that has taken place in mankind's evolution over the past 2000 years. Long ago, any occurrence was directly attributed to god. Your goat died? God killed it because he was angry at something you did. A deer accidently bumped into your hunting party? It's a sign that god is pleased with you. Overtime we came to see that there are simple scientific explanations for most of life. Occam's razor. You don't need imaginary critters to explain most things.
As far as someone with an agenda to push cherry-picking one historical figure who is in agreement with him, whoop-dee-doo. It proves nothing.
