You start by spending 5 decades dumbing down the people via liberal indoctrination. Teach people to think of self, abandon personal responsibilities, enable laziness, spread immorality, preach poly/atheism, and worst of all murder innocent humans. As people get used to it, you do it more and more out in the open, until today when you don’t try to hide it at all.

You keep Godly people on the sidelines, them letting people exercise their God given free will, but also watching their values disappear from society. Until one day they find themselves about to be made irrelevant and snuffed out.

Then you introduce a person, a people, who oppose the things of liberal indoctrination. And because the Godly oppose what they oppose, they make claim they are from God. This opposition, this claim becomes a smokescreen, garnering the Godly’s attention, while behind the smoke you draw them from their other values.

Love thy neighbor becomes superseded by my personal rights and self-idolatry. Mammon becomes all encompassing, and the poor, sick, foreign, & working, are held to poverty to line the pockets of those producing the smokescreen. The truth shall set you free becomes embracing lies and hypocrisies. Spiritual warfare becomes political warfare.

Then you smile while God’s people follow the false prophets; blinded by the smokescreen of no baby killing, failing to see the Godly ways they are being turned from. To their undoing.



If only God had warned us about you.

Just the voice of one wandering the wilderness, calling 'make straight the path to the Lord'.

Nobody is preaching atheism
That's not a thing
I've never heard a single person preaching polytheism either

That's a call in show. They're not calling anyone
So since they're not the ones calling people, that's not preaching

Calling anyone? What has that to do with anything? They are preaching atheism.
No they are not. It's a call in show.
So if you are a theist, the idea is for you to call in tell them what you believe and why and see if you can produce an argument that will convince them. Thus far no one has
They are not trying to convince anyone to be atheist,
And they get some people who call in and tell stories about how they have been abused under religion and just want someone to talk to
One lady called in talking about how she was bipolar and her parents wouldn't get her help because they thought she was demon possessed

You haven't been listening to the liberals agenda to remove Jehovah God and replace Him with any or no god at all?

There's no doubt much damage has been done in the name of religion. But that's a misunderstanding of how things are supposed to work, not of whether God is real or not. Don't judge God by what humans do in His name.

You're missing the point. It's not a show to try to convince anyone to be atheist. They are not calling anyone. So if you happen to be a theist, you call in tell them what you believe and why and see if you can convince them. Thus far no one has
Also some people have suffered legitimate abuses under religion and they just want someone to talk to.

So if someone has suffered abuses like the lady who said she was bipolar and her parents wouldn't get her help because they thought she was demon possessed, what could possibly be bad about giving them an outlet to talk to someone?

Atheist claim that they don't believe in God. My question to them is, "If you don't believe in God, why are you so afraid of him?".

They're not. It's literally impossible to fear something you don't believe exist.
Same reason you're probably not afraid of Freddy Krueger
Ask for The atheist experience, like I said it's a call in show. So you can avoid the "preaching atheism" by not calling them.
Same reason it wouldn't make any sense for me to walk into a church and be like hey stop preaching at me

If they aren't afraid of God, why do they want to remove him from society?

I don't know because I have not spoken to every atheist on the planet but I think a lot of them probably just want religious people to stop demonizing everyone who doesn't believe like they do
It's not like they're going door to door and saying hey can I talk to you about atheism?

They also want a wall between State and religion as per the amendment clause of the Constitution
I think most of them feel like you should have the right to practice whatever religion you want but don't try to force it on others

Remember that lady in the '70s who allegedly got prayer taken out of schools and subsequently became the most hated woman in america? What really happened was her son was forced to participate in a prayer and she sued.
If your child wants to pray in school, no one can stop him or her as that is his or her constitutional right. This hasn't changed. It just can't be compulsory
I think most secular people just want everyone to have the same rights

If there is no God, why should they worry about prayer in school? They are afraid of the God they say doesn't exist.
