    What is a Deist?

    Deism ( i /ˈdiː.ɪzəm/[1][2] or /ˈdeɪ.ɪzəm/) is a religious philosophy which holds that reason and observation of the natural world, without the need for organized religion, can determine that the universe is the product of an intelligent creator.

    Margaret Sanger... she proves that everything said about Atheists actually is true and that everything the left claims is true of the right is just as true of them even as she proved that much of what the right and Pro Choice claims about atheists and Pro Choice is true. Sanger is the founder of Planned parenthood. She was a wealthy elitist, an atheist, a liberal and she established most of the beliefs Pro Choice today embraces.

    Sanger shared Hitlers beliefs about undesirables but thought Hitler cruel in killing them as she believed in convincing them to have abortions and to be sterilized. She was a supporter of sterilizing the mentally ill and while cruel, she looked the other way when it was addressed how our own government was experimenting on minorities, prisoners and the mentally ill. The Liberals of today do not know the truth about their ideologies roots as they were the ones behind policies like eugenics or racial purification / superiority and they embraced the fruits of science identical to the Nazi's.

    In fact, while they like to accuse the political right of being Fascists, they don't understand that the Nazi's weren't Fascists... Hitler admired Mussolini so he dabbled in Fascism when he first came to power but he abandoned it very quickly. The Brownshirts were...

    In fact, while they like to accuse the political right of being Fascists, they don't understand that the Nazi's weren't Fascists... Hitler admired Mussolini so he dabbled in Fascism when he first came to power but he abandoned it very quickly. The Brownshirts were leftwing... no denying that. But to gain power over the legitimate German military which was rightwing, Hitler killed all the leaders of the Brownshirts in the Night of Long Knives except for the most loyal to his Totalitarian dreams. The German people and the German military were rightwing... Hitler and the leaders he kept closest were not.

    The Nazi's were environmentalists and animal rights activists whose laws in this regard were identical to the word in regard to what the left embraces today... just look at PETA and it's 95% kill rate to know that the darling of the political left is even worse than what the Nazi's allowed. Their social programs were identical to ours. Their desire for universal healthcare was identical. their use of government to force changes on us like banning tobacco and anything they deemed unhealthy is identical.

    When people today compare the Nazi's to left or right, they are comparing the left as we understand their views today... not to what they believed when Hitler was alive. Leftwing social programs created in the US government are almost word for word identical to the programs Hitler created to the point the government was targeted by the Allies to hamper it's ability to provide food and basic necessities to Germans who were unemployed so that hunger and privation was inflicted on Germany affecting the poor but not harming the working population that much until near wars end when everything was being rationed because no matter how much money you had... there just wasn't any food to buy at any price.

    The political right has always been more dominated by religion and religious views opposed to science... that fact alone tosses a lugwrench into the idea they are Nazis.

    Fascists... maybe the political right are Fascists as in Mussolini's Italy, corporations held so much control that he fought most of the war using WWI equipment because his corporations saw no profit in war and his soldiers were known to toss down their weapons and surrender rather than fight. Plutocracy did dominate Italy under Mussolini... it did not dominate Nazi Germany.

    The Nazi's were a workers union first and foremost who created a workers party because post WWI Germany was in chaos so that it's elected leaders kept resigning and new elections had to be called at the drop of a hat. Like the SEIU and UAW, the NAZI's were a union and when they came to power they didn't eliminate all unions as we've been told... they eliminated the competition and took control like the SEIU has been accused of doing in the US and has lost several lawsuits where they illegally came into areas and muscled their competition out of the way using illegal means. Capitalism survived but under the control of the Nazi's to a point that the union controlled their employers forcing them to give benefits to employees and if they didn't do what they were told... corporate and business leaders were either killed or sent to concentration camps... hardly a free market system.

    The left simply moved further left as Communists and Socialists joined the Democratic Party and began calling themselves Liberals and Progressives. During the Red Scare, Liberals were actually the ones writing most of our Anti Communist legislation even if Joseph McCarthy became the face of the movement. Likewise, Liberals were mostly theist until the 1960's when Communist and Socialist groups like the Socialist Party of America dissolved into the Democratic party calling themselves Liberals and Progressives. As they did so, the atheist element increased and many true Liberals began becoming Moderates, Independents and Conservatives explaining why there are Liberal Republicans when Liberals obviously don't belong in the almost 100% rightwing Republican Party.

    Today, atheism is so associated with Liberals that we assume all Liberals are atheists which is not something we associate with them through historic perspectives... only that atheism was a view they protected in relation to freedom of speech while most Liberals were theists. Even today, there are millions of Liberal Christians even as we see the number of people claiming to be Liberals and Progressives continue to decline every passing year.

    The political left is so self destructive that they have created a support base where everyone is part of a victims group which works as long as Republicans are in power to unite these perpetual victims against as when they come to power... the left cannot see these groups as anything but victims as that's all they will let them be. Meanwhile, we are seeing minorities and women achieving more and more success among Republicans where the message isn't that they are victims... the message is we are one people and that people is the American people.

    I generally support the left when the right is in power because when the right is in power, they become arrogant and self serving... dominating and often seemingly uncaring of those who the majority crushes or casts aside. But when Democrats come to power, chaos erupts as the left comes out trying to get even for all the years Republicans were in power and preach so much hate for the right they split their own party against itself forgetting that unlike the Republicans who are almost 100% rightwing... half the Democratic Party is rightwing so the left splits the party against itself and puts the Republicans back in power over the next election cycle.

    They lose almost every battle like the recent Scott Walker battle trying to remove the Wisconsin Governor beating their war drums laughing as they knew they were going to win... then, Walker wins at a disproportionately high number of votes revealing that either the left didn't vote or they did and many voted for Walker as Republicans do not have this level of power in Wisconsin. They claim Walker bought the election with outside money... then it's revealed how much the unions spent trying to unseat him and claims Walker bought the election are tossed out the window. However, look at all the time lost in the effort to remove him when the problems of people in Wisconsin are so great that they need leaders working together and even if Walker abuses his authority, let him do his job and use his mistakes against him in the next election or you will set in motion an endless cycle of gridlock where the suffering of people in Wisconsin will only be made worse.

    In asking who is our favorite atheist, the question should be as much why as who.

    In my case, Sanger is an obvious choice because she reveals the danger of atheism as the views of the left are not so far removed today as they were when Sanger was alive.

    After all, look at the anti war left when Bush was in power and how quickly they tossed down their anti war signs to become Pro War supporters under Obama... the only difference is that Obama is a Democrat as he never opposed Bush but supported everything Bush wanted when Obama became a US Senator.

    Where atheism is a factor in American lives, it reveals through the political left what hypocrites they can be as while they attack Christians, many of them support Muslims who are more rightwing and even more intolerant on atheists than Christians are. Her hatred for Christians is a huge factor in how Margaret Sanger became a Liberal and developed her views so that today, Planned Parenthood has contributed to black women having two or even three times as many abortions as white women and the focus on poverty as a reason to justify what they do is a lie because Sanger was also an elitist who believed poverty was caused by mental illness so that her view of poor whites was they were breeding like cockroaches who should be treated like any other undesirable.

    Atheists have a right to their views no different than Christians, but we see as much hate or more coming from atheists towards theists than what they claim Christians are guilty of. Ironic that their main grievance against theists is they promote hatred when you see as much or more hatred spoken by atheists towards theists.

    This clip is from what I consider to be one of the most interesting debates I've ever heard. Both Blair and Hitchens make excellent points and counterpoints throughout. It was a lengthy debate, and the audience was asked to vote, at the conclusion, as to which had the more convincing argument. Great debate.

    I have a few debates and speeches posted on my profile because I prefer watching him to reading him. (not smart enough to really grasp what he writes sometimes)
    Besides he is very funny live. "created a kind of Divine North Korea..." can not be appreciated with out that accent and disdain.
    Thanks for the post. I will go find the whole debate and watch it. :-)
