Would you? So you’d become a Conservative? Fascinating…

But your neighbor's were among those that determined the government's course... the course heading to rid the culture of Atheists... At LONG LAST our scenario represents the Government responding to 'the will of the MAJORITY' wherein an excited majority is anxious for CHANGE... a MAJORITY who felt that atheists were inconvenient... just a clump of sub-par cells that were prone to stir up trouble and considering that given they're in the minority, unable to defend themselves; who cares what they think... and besides, now that the law is passed; killing Atheists is legal and as long as it's legal that's all that matters; as LEGALITIES ARE ALL ANYONE SHOULD BE CONCERNED WITH… At least that’s what SOME THINK… Perhaps you disagree.

Now given that the vast majority of the population moved the government to advance this legislation; the people have by default rejected the principles laid down in the US Declaration; specifically they’ve rejected those principles as irrelevant, because it’s not the Constitution; it’s not even a legal document of this country… and even if it were, it’s passé, old fashion along with the protections established to protect those principles, in the US Constitution; YOUR IDEAS ARE: irrelevant, passé and old fashion.

Beyond that, the problem with the 'ideas' you mentioned, is that those eternal, immutable ideas are founded on the authority of Nature's God... what you're selling are old fashion ideas on the authority of your own individual perspective; which were perhaps, at one time, debatable. However… in case you missed it, the majority of the population, along with the full scope and power of Government now sees you and your ideas as being so dangerous that they’re hunting everyone who holds them down and killing them on sight…; even mentioning them is almost certainly going to result in ones death; so convincing that majority to listen to you, is fairly unlikely, considering that your neighbor is probably going to kill you the minute he enters the door and if you kill him, then the next Citizen who is legally obligated to kill you; knowing you’re a deadly menace, having killed your own NEIGHBOR; will be less likely to set himself in a position which might allow you a chance to do the same to him… making a conversation of any depth, exponentially less likely. So it's a effort in futility; I mean after all; the Atheist belief is once you die; your means to advance and defend your ideas dies with you. So it’s going to be a short selling season and one finding VERY few who will be willing to listen, given that doing so is HIGHLY ILLEGAL, not to mention lethal… After all: Atheists are KILLERS!

I keep thinking how a majority today rejects the rights of the most innocent among us, to their lives...

Isn't it ironic that you’re in effect claiming that all the rights advanced in the US Declaration apply to YOU; this while rejecting their stated source: Natures God and demanding that the old fashion protections of those rights, established in the US Constitution do NOT apply to those who are wholly unable to defend themselves… YOU stood among a majority that rejected THEIR RIGHTS... DECLARED THE RIGHTS OF OTHERS AS BEING SUPERIOR TO THEIR RIGHTS< THAT THE LAW WAS THE FINAL ARBITER OF RIGHT AND JUSTICE.

All the scenario does is replace YOU and YOUR rights, with those that were initially used to establish the precedent, which YOU endorsed, when the lives being infringed upon were those who couldn't take up arms; THOSE THAT COULD NOT HOPE to pull their neighbors aside and beg them to understand the rights and protections advanced through the ancient mores of a long forgotten breed of narrow minded religious zealots.
