Atheists Becoming More Aggressive in America?

Billboards promoting atheism and attacking Christianity have popped up across the country.
The American Humanist Association has launched a special website for children to indoctrinate them in atheism.
An atheist rally in Washington DC last year had a special promotion to encourage kids to attend their atheist camps.
Atheists have been increasingly using terms like “child abuse” to describe the efforts of Christians who seek to teach their children about creation, heaven, and hell.
Many atheists claim that children belong to the community, not to their parents.
Atheists have actively opposed any effort in public schools to even question a belief of evolution or suggest there are any problems w






A friend of one of the parents who has a child enrolled in the fourth grade class posted the quiz sheets on the internet. The parent, like all parents who have children enrolled at this academy, had signed a statement, which acknowledged an understanding that sending their child to this Christian school would mean they would be taught biblical Christianity. The parent expressed dismay that his daughter was taught a biblical approach to dinosaurs. The quiz’s posting to the internet resulted in a number of atheist websites reposting the questions and answers, and many of them responded in rage and vehement attacks on the school.

The school administrator, relatively new as the head of the academy, was shocked to find her school becoming the target of atheist attacks and even some threats. Articles on mainstream websites (like a Seattle TV station over 2,500 miles away), a UK website, and other places on the internet made the controversy grow even larger.

Now, this Christian academy is not a large school. Yet the atheists went after it with incredible fervor. The school administrator informed us she knew that the school would be involved in a spiritual battle after the quiz went public, but she was not expecting such ferocity. She told us she was shocked at the level of hate that the atheists poured down upon her, the teacher, and the school in general.

For the next two years, our special theme for the Answers in Genesis ministry is “Standing our Ground, Rescuing our Kids” (Galatians 1:4). We, too, have experienced recent increased attacks by atheists, especially whenever they discover we are influencing children with the truth of God’s Word. These anti-God people hate the fact that Christians are teaching children to stand on the authority of the Bible; they want to be the ones teaching children and indoctrinating them into atheism. Even children’s TV host Bill Nye has recently made many harsh statements against those of us who teach creation to children.

In a way, what is happening to this Christian school and also to the Romeike family should be a warning to all Christians: the atheists want your children. They are aggressively trying to demonize and marginalize Christians in their attempts to recruit your children for atheism or secularism.

Though we praise God for the minority of Christian “missionaries” who work as teachers in the public school system (and who need our prayers), government schools have increasingly become, in essence, churches of atheism. We are aware that the overwhelming majority of children raised in the church attend public schools, and thus it should not be surprising that with all the secularist indoctrination in schools, about two-thirds of our young people brought up in church are walking away from it by the time they reach college age. (See the book Already Gone for details.)

As we wrote yesterday on this website, the growing anti-Christian attacks in America should be a warning to the church that a chasm is widening between what is Christian and what is not. Christians can no longer straddle both sides of the chasm, for it’s getting wider. They will ultimately have to decide which side they will stand on! And if those who are on God’s side stand their ground on His Word without compromise, then they may face persecution of various forms.

More than ever, God’s people need to be standing up publicly and unashamedly for the authority of His Word.

The authors of this web article have been highly impressed with the spiritual quality of this school, the administrator, and the teacher involved as they have had to cope with some very vicious attacks.1 We were encouraged to read on the school’s website that the Academy believes, “God’s truth is authoritative and is the foundation for all living and learning in order to develop a biblical worldview, while both understanding the culture in which they live and being ready to confidently defend their faith.”

It must be frustrating for Blue Ridge Christian Academy for another reason right now. Like many Christian schools, it has been struggling financially during this recession. And, of course, they don’t receive the tax money that public schools get.

At AiG, we want to help this school be a good example to the entire Christian community of how all believers should defend our faith and stand our ground so that more of our children can be rescued from this evil world. Galatians 1:4 states that Christ “gave Himself for our sins,

What is the biblical approach to dinosaurs? They were never mentioned in the bible?

Well, it's all prophecy coming true.. so why complain?
Re: Atheists Becoming More Aggressive In America by AtheistD(m): 12:22pm On May 15, 2013
There is only one approach to dinosaurs... evolution.

When teaching in schools, religion can be taught as a separate subject. I believe it should be compusory to take classes in religion/religious studies. However, in regards to science there is only one approach. Religion should be kept out of such things.

The Church teach creation...

Evolution is not yet part of the church's teachings though it's scientists are looking into it to verify it's authenticity.

Hilarious.
Church scientists are looking into it to verify its authenticity?
Hehe he.
You mean verify in the same way that they verify miracles of dead saints?
Classic!
By the way, I am assuming that the same scientists have already verified and authenticated the seven day creation epic and the talking snake drama as well.

And by the way, pope John Paul ll, then pontiff of the mother church, endorsed the theory of evolution as far back as 1996. I guess that's when church science caught up with mainstream science.
Re: Atheists Becoming More Aggressive In America by EvilBrain1(m): 7:08pm On May 15, 2013
Christians are merely fighting for their god given right to tell lies to children. How dare atheists complain when Christians tell kids that a dinosaur like Tyranosaurus Rex with its razor sharp teeth and deadly claws was really a harmless plant eater?

Schools are there to teach children, but there's no reason why what is taught there should be true. Each religion should be able to teach whatever nonsense they want in science classrooms. Christians have the right to teach that the earth is 6000 years old. Muslims should be able to tell their kids that saltwater and fresh water can't mix (its in the Koran). And Guru maraji followers have the right to teach that 2+2=5.

Atheists should stop trying to force everybody to properly educate their children.

Let's all respect each others right to fill our kids heads with nonsense.

lol dont know if to support dis or not cos i'm also a victim of false indoctrination with different kind of absurd things about christianity and god topics,but i now hav a mind of my own to some extent but there are still some of my friends dat do believe many poos we were served with since we are kids,well i just look at them and smh hoping dey are just pretending just like i am about christianity we were being taught.
Re: Atheists Becoming More Aggressive In America by Ubenedictus(m): 1:36am On May 16, 2013
i believe science should be taught in science class and religion in religion class. If biblical approach to dinosaurs was a science topic then i think there is a poblem, if not then what are the complains about, let the religious people give their approach to dinosaurs.
To the question of what catholicism teach, we teach God created the universe, these and like principles are doctrinal with a lot of room for the posibilities, so theistic evolution may be valid for a catholic. On the otherhand raw evolution is taught in science classes in catholic school.
