Reply to "Book of Mark... Fiction?"

It seems to me that all the whinning about atheists posting stems from the desire of many christians to avoid reality. They know deep down inside that it is all a fairy tale, and they don't want to deal with any rational comments that show how absurd religion really is.
I post here, because of all the revisionist history they use that leads us to bad political decisions. Some one posted that this nation was founded on Christian principles, which is untrue. This nation was founded on many ideas, some may actually be attributed to religious ideals, but the vast majority were from the ideals that arose from the Enlightenment.
The most influential of this nation's Founding Fathers spoke out against the influence of the churches, Jefferson, Franklin, Madison, Washington, Hamilton, Adams worked hard to reduce the influence of the congregationlist. And the battle goes on, with religious groups constantly attempting to influence this nation in ways that reduce the freedom of us all.
As Jefferson said, "This would be the best of all possible worlds if there were no religion in it."
