Pew Poll: Socialism viewed as positively as capitalism among Millennials by steelersfan7roein socialism

History is always viewed through a lens. An examination of the various histories of the state reveal that it's not at all clear if it can only be a tool of the ruling class. Like I said, idealistically I can imagine the state functioning differently.

The state is just a tool - in the case of corporate personhood it was used by the corporatists to their own ends. Idealistically, the state could be harnessed by broader interests and used in other ways.

I call people like you "professional crusading atheists" by eeepc3in atheism

I don't know, I think there definitely is a large strain of atheists today whose atheism is at least partly rooted in reaction to childhood religious indoctrination (including myself). It's not a "wrong" source for atheism to emerge from, or even a central one to many, but it's definitely a part of many people's atheist identities and stories, including Dawkins and Hitchens. When youthful rebellion against indoctrination becomes the dominant component of one's atheism, it seems to take on a different character, which Enstein finds distasteful. Someone who is raised atheist or otherwise transcends their indoctrination doesn't have an axe to grind.

This is why I want a tablet. It's basically how I use my netbook now, but a tablet seems so much less clunky and more elegant.

For what it's worth, it gave me a healthy, newfound respect for the members of the U.S. armed forces.

And also a healthy, tightly packed turd, I'm guessing.

It's when a whole bunch of individuals get together, form a common mindset, and essentially turn that into a new group-faith

I went to the Creation Museum so you don't have to! by DouchesWildin reddit.com

Where did you see any reference to political ideology here? While it's implicit that Republicans and Tea Baggers are more inclined to believe this nonsense, neither the OP nor any posters so far have made any mention of politics. But since you've brought it up, I'm curious - are you a "conservative" who "likes" the creation museum and what it stands for? Please make your case for not being mocked.
