I'm an atheist, and you're wrong
Why did you trot out the ad hominem and utterly false crap of "As an aside, when self-professed atheists control the state we invariably end up with Communism or Fascism." It's been proven wrong umpteen billion times. I know it makes you feel good to think that it's true, but it's not. How would you like it if I said "every time a religious person controls the state, we invariably end up with a Dark Age Theocracy"? You wouldn't like that, would you? It's called the golden rule, remember? Why don't you start following it?
Anyway, given that I'm an atheist and an anarchocapitalist (meaning I'm more free-market than you are), I just wonder how you'd take knowing that I'm an anarchocapitalist. Would it destroy your little fantasy world? Yeah, I'll bet it already has. In fact, I'll bet you don't know thing-one about actual economics. I'll bet you've never heard of Murray Rothbard, Ludwig von Mises, or Hans-Hermann Hoppe, have you?
Now then, to be a theist you have to believe that god just somehow magically has always been. Quite a coincidence. You have to believe that god is outside of all the rules just so you can have god exist. Sounds an awful lot like a load of bull to me. And it smells like projection on your part. So do yourself a favor and take the log from your own eye, ok?

I stand by what I wrote Mr. Knight
I wrote:
"There are many thoughtful exceptions to this rule, but this hostility seems to be the rule.
As an aside, when self-professed atheists control the state we invariably end up with Communism or Fascism. Atheist governments feel no compunction to respect any "G-d given" rights of the people. They seek to perfect the imperfectable humans in their midst. We "round" humans just REFUSE to fit into "square" holes! That's when the bloodletting commences. Refer to Robespierre, Mussolini, Hitler, or Stalin."
The exceptions to the rule only serve to prove THE RULE! And yes I DO know and ADMIRE the men you mentioned. States whose "official religion" is Atheism end up fascist or communist. That's a fact. Sorry. Do yourself a favor and click on that link I provided. Owen is an intellectual titan!
As for "not knowing one thing about economics" scroll down my blog and read "Gas Price Lies", I DESPISE economic ignorance AND people who ignore history's lessons. :-)

Then you stand by falsehoods
Do yourself a favor and stop believing the lies, ok. Further, please stop correlating without causation. You (and others) are trying to correlate "atheist government" with "fascism/communism" and it just doesn't work--no matter who you can trot out to mouth the lies.
And no--you don't know the men I've mentioned or else you wouldn't have written the screed that you did. Period.

Jeez Knight you argue like a leftist!
I tell you the truth, and you call me a liar. I don't know what else to say...Oh did you read Gas Price Lies? Whatever you do DON'T read it. You might feel compelled to apologize. LOL!
