Time Bomb:The Final Solution to the Christian Problem

"I must admit moreover that it may not be easy, in every possible case, to trace the line of separation between the rights of religion and the civil authority with such distinctness as to avoid collisions and doubts on unessential points. The tendency to a usurpation on one side or the other, or to a corrupting coalition or alliance between them, will be best guarded against by an entire absence of the Government from interference in any way what ever, beyond the necessity of preserving public order, and protecting each sect against trespass on its legal rights by others ." - James Madison, 1832

This would be the best of all possible worlds if there were no religion in it. -John Adams, Second President of the United States, 1816

It appears a self-evident truth that organized Christianity is one of the most repressive forces in the world -- from the Spanish Inquisition to the modern-day Christian terrorist organizations, whose foremost goals appear to be limiting scientific and social knowledge and research, keeping women "in their place," bringing their religion into the public school system, and replacing the secular government of the United States with a theocracy. This conspiracy must be brought to an end by any means necessary. It is too easy to conclude that these organizations are protected, in the United States, by the ban on government involvement with religious causes. The fact of the matter is that these people are attempting to usurp the inherently secular character of our constitutional republic. Such an attempt is tantamount to treason. The authoritarian nature of these organizations is in direct opposition to the libertarian ideal which is the basis of Jefferson's republic.

An argument is often made that the Constitution of the United States was based on Christian (or in more recent times "Judeo-Christian") morality. It is further asserted that the "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof" clause in the First Amendment refers to freedom for all forms of Christianity, and mere tolerance of other expressions of faith. Curiously, this particular idea was left out of the Constitution, and is in direct contradiction to the following passage (found in the 1797 Treaty of Tripoli and ratified by the Senate on June 7, 1797) signed by president John Adams, June 10, 1797:

As the government of the United States of America is not, in any sense, founded on the Christian religion; as it has in itself no character of enmity against the laws, religion, or tranquillity of [Muslims]; and as the said States never have entered into any war or act of hostility against any [Muslim] nation; it is decreed by the parties that no pretext arising from religious opinions shall ever produce an interruption of the harmony existing between the two countries.

'The United States of America is not a Christian nation. Anyone who tells you so is not only a liar, but a liar with an agenda. They want to call it a "Christian nation" so that when they finally force us all to live according to Old Testament law, they can claim that it has always been thus.

The solution is simple and there are unlimited precedents. There is a fine line between proposing change in government and proposing the elimination of the government itself. Those who seek to subvert and manipulate human freedoms as guaranteed in the Constitution should be rightly labelled as anti-American. In our nation's past, the government has always moved quickly to crush anti-Americanism in the form of treasonous elements, counterrevolutionaries, and would-be usurpers -- why should fundamentalist Christian extremists receive preferential treatment?

Therefore we propose the following:

1. Any person actively working towards replacing the constitutional secular government of the United States of America with a fundamentalist Christian theocracy should be considered guilty of treason and should be prosecuted as a traitor -- the penalty, of course, being death.

2. Any person who acts in the name of a would-be theocratic regime to subvert the Constitutional rights of American citizens should be swiftly prosecuted to the full extent of the law.

3. All references to Christian deities, imagery, or ideology should be deleted from government property and programs.

4. Special attention should be paid to the Constitutional rights of non-Christians in order to emphasize the diversity of religious belief in our nation. If the current privileges of Christians are not revoked, they should then be bestowed upon all believers of all religions in the United States of America for the sake of consistency and fairness. Atheists and agnostics, being the most impartial in debates over religion, should be the ultimate arbiters of religious rights.
