Your God. My God... Oh My God... Perhaps you trust there is no God.
It's not like they said, "In the Christian God We Trust".
P-
Almost 95 percent of the people in the world believe in God in one way or another.
One of basis in the founding of this country was freedom of religion, for people to be able to worship God as the see fit.
As I mentioned before in this thread, I'm tired of God haters always wanting God off of everything. Their 5 percent of the world needs to shut up and live with it. Most of us will probably end up in hell anyway, so we can all have a beer together.

A Scientist dies and goes to heaven. When he arrives at the Pearly Gates, he asks St. Peter for an immediate audience with God. His wish is granted, and he is taken to see God.
Upon arriving to see God, the Scientist immediately says: "God, we have discovered that we no longer need to believe in you."
God: "Why is that?"
Scientist: "Because, we have invented a way to mold a man or woman out of dirt, and breath the breath of life into that creation, thus eliminating the need for you."
God: "OK, show me."
So the Scientist scoops up two handfuls of dirt, and starts to mold his human form when all of the sudden God stops him, and says:
"No, use your own dirt!"

Sorry, just like to argue, but the whole concept of real property ownership has always baffled me.

For your argument to have any sense, you must first argue:
- Why mobility is a necessary trait for property.
- Why property rights must be irrevocable under ALL cases/events.

Looking at the grand scheme of things, property is meaningless. It can be taken away and lost and you can't take it to your grave. Well, you can take a few things to your grave, but not much.
