Well, I think if someone is a militant ateist, he does basically the same thing those fundamentalists are doing. And I would consider myself as an agnostic cos I have been religious when I was younger but then I just, you know, forget it and now it does not seems to be important for me.
One of those reasons is that I could not stand their opinions about homosexuals and abort or pre-marriage sex.

So for me it does not matter if religious people don't like these things but their rules shouldn't affect the laws or the society

Listening to a militant atheist bitch about religion is like listening to the callers on Rush Limbaugh.
'Militant atheism' is a complete misnomer to me these days. There was a time when that term actually meant oppressing religion and not just incessantly whining about local nativity scenes.

Yeah, people are trying to get intelligent design taught in schools, so perhaps we should pick our battles.

I'm pro-choicer because I feel that a woman should be able to make her own decisions on what she wants done. Abortion is a very unfortunate thing, but it shouldn't be the governments job to tell a woman if she can do something or not.

Michigan Passes Bill Requiring Women to Purchase 'Rape Insurance'

Quote:
The Michigan Legislature, now that they've solved all of the problems in Michigan (LOL), has just passed a law barring insurance plans from offering abortion coverage as a standard part of plans offered on the state's Obamacare exchanges. That means, women who wish to have abortions obtained for any reason covered by insurance must purchase a special rider in advance. Baby's brain developing outside of its skull? If you want your insurance to cover your abortion, you should have planned for that heartbreaking tragedy in advance! Did you get raped and become pregnant as a result? Guess you should have thought of your rapeability and fecundity before you tried to save a few dollars on the health insurance exchange, missy! Victim of incest? I mean that sucks but how about plan a little better next time, ok, kid?
