The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

The other side of this has been an aggressive campaign to disrespect Christianity and denigrate Christian symbols and traditions. Look at the lame mocking that takes place on this board every 5 minutes. I'd love to see our resident, super-tolerant and safe space practicing atheists walk up to a mosque and start disparaging Islam or Mohammed, or try to pull that stuff at a Diwali gathering. There's a reason why all the anti-religion energy is focused on the Turn The Other Cheek Set.

That's because an unknown investment board on the internet where politics is a side for a few speakers works out to be a good place to do some open discussion of the religious effect by atheists. I'm an atheist and I'm usually not mocking religion, but I understand full well why it's occurring, and it's deserved. We don't go into someone's house of worship and criticize because we're respectful that that is a house of worship. When I'm in church,I pray along with everyone else. On Christmas day, I celebrate Christmas.

And I wouldn't want to see a Christian walking into a Mosque in the Middle East and go on an anti-Muslim rant as I've seen them do on the internet.
