Should Theists Be Allowed To Shop/Vote?

Postby Xerographica » Mon Aug 26, 2013 3:50 pm

Do we really need millions of mosques, synagogues, churches, temples and cathedrals? Do we really need to debate whether schools should teach evolution or creationism? Do we really need to struggle to try and ensure that abortion isn't outlawed? Do we really need to fight for marriage equality? Given that society's resources are scarce/limited... couldn't all that time, money, effort and energy be used in more valuable/productive ways?

If you're an atheist...isn't it a given that the outcome would be largely beneficial if we simply made it illegal for theists to vote/shop for themselves?

If you're a theist...isn't it a given that the outcome would be largely beneficial if we simply made it illegal for atheists to vote/shop for themselves?

If you're an adult...isn't it a given that the outcome is largely beneficial because it's illegal for people who believe in Santa Claus to vote? Doesn't it follow then that we would benefit even more if we made it illegal for minors to shop for themselves? Couldn't all the money wasted on ice cream, candy and toys be better spent on more valuable things?

Because freedom of assembly, petition, and speech are totally irrelevant right? :palm:

What the fuck? :palm:

NO. Discrimination based on religion is barbaric and militant atheism is just as bad as militant theism. Which is why things like barring Theists from buying food to live is opposed by every developed nation in the world and why the United Nations would condemn such a practice.

"We don't need welfare, right? Let only the rich vote!"
