MizMyColi: The worst set of "Christians" to encounter are the fundamentalist kind.Your last paragraph is the one million dollar question. The globalists have an agenda forget all the brouhaha going on various quarters of the world over religion. By the time they are done religion would be too down to raise a finger. 2 Likes |

donpeey22: Too bad. I wish Nigerians could become less gullible, and start questioning some of the poo they are being fed by those criminals. That gullibility is a direct result of mixing religion and state. When the people governing you have the nerve to tell you to pray for a solution. 4 Likes |

For the sake of argument lets assume God in this context is referring to the Christain God.The last time I checked the US of A was fought for and built by Christain based on their belives. Am not a religious person but if you are going to live and work in a country built my Christains you might as well be ready to take some of shit. I am yet to see the atheist or we free thinkers pulling those "stunt" in Arab country. To be honest when it comes tolerance as I still cut Christians some slacks, though they could be a handfull a times. |

Well, it all depends. Obviously, Americans are always careful whenever they are dealing with sensitive issues. It's not really bad so to speak but I feel that there are other better ways to deal with this particular issue than going to court. |

Swiftboy: And your Atheism is not a religion right? So they should make a new rule because you dont believe in God?Read the article. In the past, an airman could opt for an alternative phrase and omit the words "so help me God," but the US Air Force changed its policy in October 2013.www.gpo.gov/fdsys/pkg/USCODE-2011-title10/html/USCODE-2011-title10-subtitleA-partII-chap31-sec502.htm An ought to God is what will hold against you in the court of law,why boycot it cos 'you dont believe in God'? You atheists are more religious than I thought.lolYou don't have to swear an oath in a court of law. http://atheism.about.com/od/ideasforatheistactivism/a/AffirmSwear.htm 2 Likes |

he can just say the word, maybe his belief will change. and swearing to "so help me God" doesnt mean God is gonna come help me him, he can still do watever he wants to do, like in court, it doesnt mean u re going to tell the truth. |

Apatheist:I reason with you...what I said was the ought will be used against whoever swore it should he go against it. Taking a part of the ought away will leave the swearing in complete. |

[quote author=FrancisTony] All these religious fanatics and christian bigots. I am a Christian and Last time I checked, no where is it stated in the bible that we should bully those who don't share our faith. With this your comment, no wonder boko haram is killing christians in the north and Allah is blessing them. [/quote] are you saying allah is blessing them for killing the innocent and unharmed? |
Re: Atheist Must Swear To God -- Or Leave US Air Force by okzcorp: 11:04am On Sep 14, 2014 |
donpeey22: My dear! I wish the religious bigots can listen to people like you. In fact, that I go to church today is not because I believe in the existence of any god, but because I understand the socioeconomic implication of not identifying with any of the two major religious groups in Nigeria. Call it hypocrisy or whatever, no problem. Until that time when Nigerians would begin to relate with people based on their personalities and not based on their religious adherence, I choose to remain a hypocrite. Continue. |

Neldrizzy: For someone to believe that there's no God, that must be a spiritual hindrance on him b4 or after his birth.. Am still wondering why pple still doubt the existence of God!! Very pathetic!! Which of the Gods? The one brought to you by the white masters who told you that the devil looks just like you (black), while God looks like them (white)? Or the Gods that my Asian friends serve? Or is it just ok to believe in just any God? As far as there's a God belief? 7 Likes 1 Share |

Re: Atheist Must Swear To God -- Or Leave US Air Force by cococandy(f): 11:47am On Sep 14, 2014 |
No you don't get it. No one is asking anyone to stop swearing by God. They are asking to be allowed to swear by an alternative phrase which suits them while those who believe in God can keep swearing by God. Is that too hard to grab? TrollMan: 2 Likes |
