The wills of people who believe in your creator are trying to overwrite the will of those who don't believe in your creator. Pretty sure America was based on avoiding that, what with the whole freedom of religion thingy

Are you asking me why slave owners forced Christianity on slaves? If that's your questions, how is that possibly showing religion to be a good thing in this context? I might just be misunderstanding the question. And I disapprove of it being on the court walls, it snubs the separation of religion and government. My own beliefs are built on what I see of the world and what I learn from trusted resources, and I am willing to alter my view in light of new information, and do not cling unchangingly to disproven and morally inconsistent religious texts. Without religion there'd be oodles less violence and subjugation in the world. Some still, yes, but oodles less.

There’s no evidence your god even exists, much less should be the basis of law. We don’t live in a theocracy, please keep your religion off everyone’s laws thanks.

Violence is all you have, because you have no argument. Your religion is based on lies, errors, hatred, and fear, and your god is about as real as the Tooth Fairy. You hate me because I’m LGBT but you don’t even understand what that is. You just blindly believe the propaganda from your pastor or imam.

Unlike you, I wont be tossing any stones. I don’t hate you, because I don’t have a dangerous cult telling me who to hate. As a non-binary heathen with a deep distaste for organized religion: I hope you have a wonderful evening, a great week, and that life treats you kindly and brings you happiness. :)

Didn’t god give us free will? Like, he personally did that?

Isn’t it somewhat against “god’s will” to not allow free will? You’re trying to usurp god’s own demand that your fellow man have free will. Kinda shitty really

I don’t believe your god—or any gods—exists. There’s no evidence to support any religion’s supernatural claims, so I see no reason to take such claims seriously.

I lack belief in your god for the same reason I lack belief in alien abductions, ghosts, and lizard people conspiracy theories.

I don’t believe in your creator so you’ll just have to sit there and deal with it when I defy him
