Just wondering where all the ‘atheist’ hospitals are? I know there are some ’secular’ hospitals but if all ills are the result of religion (as atheists often claim) I have to wonder why most hospitals, orphanages, and poor houses are associated with Christian ethics and Jesus Christ’s sermon on the Mount?

“Democracy is two wolves and a lamb voting on what to have for lunch. Liberty is a well-armed lamb contesting the vote.” – Benjamin Franklin

“We will always remember.

We will always be proud.

We will always be prepared, so we may always be free.”

D-Day Commemoration in Normandy, France, June 6, 1984

-Excerpt from Ronald Reagan’s speech

Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction.

We didn’t pass it to our children in the bloodstream.

It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same,

or one day we will spend our sunset years telling our children and our children’s children

what it was once like in the United States where men were free.

Annual meeting of the Phoenix Chamber of Commerce, March 30, 1961

Democracy took a hard blow this day in Peking as the People’s Army of China opened fire on crowds of demonstrators.

What began as a student demonstration on behalf of democracy a month and a half earlier, had become a demonstration of hundreds of thousands of people from all walks of life defying the government ban on the students’ action. Armored tanks of the People’s Army literally rolled over demonstrators as the world watched in horror as the tragedy unfolded on live TV. The government issued statements claiming that only a few had died. Other estimates of the deaths in Tiananmen Square ranged from hundreds to several thousand. There is no contradiction of the fact that thousands of demonstrators were later jailed.
