my question is even though atheists dont believe in god why should they care that its there when it probably means something to someone who believes in God

[mixedfarmer]

What we know about the universe is not fully understood yet and god should have a place in university. If students wish to take a class in it they should have a course for it.

Of Mice and Men is banned? For what?

[newfette]

Of Mice and Men is banned? For what?

Of Mice and Men has been a frequent target of censors for what some consider offensive and vulgar language; consequently, it appears on the American Library Association's list of the Most Challenged Books of 21st Century.

[mixedfarmer]

no books should be banned because some one has to decide what is good for me to read. a slippery slope

Because they are being addressed and being told to use their education for god. I can see where they are coming from.

Offensive and vulgar language? From what I remember (and this was 5 years ago) it wasn't that bad.

You "atheists" sound as bad as Jehovah witness.

What amazes me is that people can't just repect each others beliefs, just shows the hidden bigotry in Canada, and mostly among the youth.

Personally, there are so many religions, I tend to think at times it's hard to believe in anything, not even in humanity because we really are a fucked up species.

There's respecting beliefs, and then not wanting to take part in anything related to it. This relates to it. Freedom from religion too remember?

Explain that to the idiots who ban books written by Mr. Clemens.

Isn't the Catcher in the Rye the most banned book?

What also amazes me, Trit, is the lack of respect by some religeous people, for the people who are not religeous...
Why would I have to listen to some guy saying: Use it for God, while you won't listen to the same gay saying: use it for the Spagetti monster?
