Atheist fleeing religious country and seeking asylum in Sweden told that atheists have no right to express their views, unlike converts.

Asylum seeker told atheists have no right to express their views

Telling him to go back, the Court 'consider it reasonable' to reject the request and 'considers that atheists, unlike converts, cannot be considered to have a need to openly express their views in words or active action.'

Wow, Swedish Asylum Authorities, wow. /s

Two centuries ago our America's founders broke up political control of the churches. Today, churches are above the law. Christianity works to violate the most basic human rights.

One century ago, the Soviet Union broke up the power of the national church. They set up an oppressive atheist regime, yet by making the mistake of allowing church remnants to survive under communist rule, allowed a cancer of the Russian society to reinfect the society. Russian Christian theocrats now control American politics and manipulate American elections.

So both Christianity and atheism have failed miserably to provide protection of basic human rights. Christianity reduces humans to sinners in need of control, to serve the good of the church. Atheistic communism reduces humans to soul-less material machines who have no innate rights, who serve the good of the state.

A new spirituality is needed in America to affirm the rights and dignity of human beings and all life. Otherwise we will destroy our planet, all life on it, and each other.

With this new spirituality, we need to restore the better ideals of our founders, that all humans are "created equal in the eyes of their creator," that humans all have the dignity of being sacred, that basic human rights are not to be violated for political convenience. We must also recognize that religious freedom has its limitations and that religious organizations are not above the law, are accountable to government justice and not their own manipulations, and deserve to be taxed as any other organizations receiving the benefits of the society as a whole.

Without a spiritual renewal, Americans will remain helpless in even providing basic human rights to our fellow citizens, to immigrants who illegally cross our borders, and to the children who are the ultimate victims of all church and government corruption.

Hey everyone, I’m an old guy (28,076 days today) but #newhere. I’m interested in #atheism, #computer-hardware, #computer-security, #encryption, #progressive, and #science.

Just picked those out of a hat. Subject to change.

About Science, from somewhere on the Internet: "Science is the process of crash testing ideas: a scientist does not coddle an idea, or design tests to make it work. The scientist rams the idea into a brick wall head-on at 60mph, and knowledge is gained by examining the pieces. If the theory is solid, the pieces are from the wall."

I never got the hang of Google Plus. Bailed out of FaceCrook recently. Haven't logged in in about 3 weeks.

Does anyone know why do we press harder on a remote control when we know the battery is dead?

Thanks for listening.

At dinner my family was laughing at people believing in flat earth or homeopathy. They were able to discuss what makes people believe in such things or how faith makes them reject some of the facts about reality.
It was funny, because they all believe in God and Jesus.

Greetings. I am #newhere, and a gplusrefugee.

Here's a few things about me. There's a chance I'll like you because we share a similarity, there's a chance I'll like you because we have differences, so we start with:
