NO RIGHT TO BE AN ATHEIST

Good job Ray. I would like to comment and I think you would agree; you say, “The freedom to be an atheist is the God-given right of every American". 1st of all no man has a God given right to be an atheist. God gives us the freedom to choose, but that is not a right to choose wrongly. We are obligated by the fact that God created us to ask Him to reveal the truth to us. We have no right to be fools and decide for ourselves. In the final judgment, Jesus will in perfect justice send those who insist on having their own way to hell all eternity. No man has s right to decide for himself, but every man has an obligation to his Creator to seek the truth and humble himself and ask his Creator to show him the the truth. This nation now has come to the point where the government thinks it has the right to give its people the right to be atheists. But no government can give this right. That is NOT how this nation was started by our forefathers. They wrote the constitution to give all men the freedom to worship The Lord Jesus as they heard from the Holy Spirit through the Holy Scriptures for themselves. But their writings show that this government was set up to worship Jesus Christ and no other god. The difference between this nation and South America is this; it was men seeking gold who settled South America but it was men seeking Jesus Christ who settled our nation. Lou Newton

- We are all born atheists

Lou: Your assertion that our government was set up to worship Jesus and no other gods is false. Nowhere in the constitution is either Jesus mentioned or is it stipulated that only the Christian god is to be worshipped at the exclusion of others. Your statement is patently false. The United States of America is not, and has never been, a theocracy.
As for the topic of whether a man has a right to be atheist, I’ll begin by pointing out that everyone is born an atheist. Nobody is ever born with a set of religious beliefs, and if a person was never exposed during their lifetime to religious dogma, he or she would live their entire life without any notion of the existence of one god or another. Evidently religious beliefs are not innate, but acquired. In essence, following your logic, God creates ONLY atheists. And that would logically make it a God-given right to be an atheist.

- THE MAYFLOWER COMPACT AND GEORGE WASHINGTON

Words are easy to type but truth requires that we sell everything we have to buy the whole field and then dig up the whole field to find the pearl of truth. The Constitution was not written until almost 200 years after the Mayflower Compact. Read it and see that this nation was started by men looking for Jesus Christ. That is why our nation was so much greater than the nations of South American which was started by men looking for mere material gold. - George Washington was called the father of our nation for good reason. George is listed in many books as the greatest military commander of all time. Washington took a 13 little colonies that had no Army or navy and defeated the greatest empire of the face of the earth. When the British Navy, that had never seen defeat, was defeated by the French Navy at Cape Henry, some of the British said it was as they were not fighting against mere men in wooden ships but against Almighty God. General Washington had standing written orders that said all of the men in his Army were to attend the "Christian" church of their choice every Sunday. Washington fought with Congress to pay Christian Pastors for his entire Army. Washington honored Jesus Christ in his orders, his speeches, and his prayers. The entire Army was asked to pray and fast and to humble themselves before the Lord Jesus for Washington said they could not have victory without His help. This nation grew from a nation with no Navy or Army to the greatest Empire on the earth. And now like the British did, we want to forget the One who helped us. What has been the result so far. Our children come to their school to murder their classmates. Our economy is in shambles. Our nation is full of broken homes and children with no father of no mother. We have no industry and no jobs. Men who honored The Lord Jesus Christ made this nation great. Now men who dishonor God are watching while it is destroyed. Lou Newton

- ATHEISTS ARE SELF MADE NOT BORN

Dear friend, I do not know about you, but I can remember when I was an infant. I used to lay on my back in the grass and look up at the clouds and talk to God. I had to believe that God existed to try to speak to Him. I had never been taught or been to any church. But I chose to disobey Him and go my own way. But even in my rebellion, I would look up at the heavens and could not believe that it just all happened. I had become observant enough to know that the creation can not create itself. The heavens declare the glory of God. When my children were born they believed in God but I was still a disobedient son. My youngest son was born after I gave my life to my Creator and we would talk about The Lord Jesus and he would always talk as if he already believed. IF THESE THREE CHILDREN WERE BORN ATHEISTS THAN WHY DID NO ONE HAVE TO CONVINCE THEM THAT THERE WAS A GOD. Does not an atheists know there is no God. How could these children be convinced of something they disbelieved in without any argument or convincing. Men are not born atheist but decide for themselves to make themselves god so that they can do as they please. Look at the men who were atheists. Marx, Lenin, Stalin, Mao, and many others. These men were all atheists so that they could do as they pleased and not be held accountable to anyone. Also we should look at their actions, they were responsible for the murder of many millions of people. Atheists are not born but they are made by their own selfish ambitions. Lou Newton
