nor from a political standpoint(I have cable and watch lots of news). 

That made me laugh.

You may know more about the goings-on in the middle East, not disputing that.. but, the media can often distort the truth and often a complex situation can be made very simple to understand, such as the Israel/Hamas conflict.   It's a complex situation but in essence it's dead simple but I won't go into that since you don't want to.

It is in the past, we move forward and learn at the same time..  What I'm saying is that if everybody followed the 10 commandments we'd be certainly better off in numerous ways.

If it's so simple, perhaps you should be speaking to someone else?

There are actual Christian ruled states out there and they are the most violent of places. There are secular states out there that are quite peaceful.

So, I think that proves you wrong.

And why, pray hell, do think we want a lecture from you?

any person or country can say that they're Chrisitian but it won't change anything unless they actively pursue that lifestyle.  Christianity doesn't mean that people don't have free will anymore, we live in a world of sin and that's a fact.  What I'm saying is that we are guided by the principles as set out in the 10 commandments, as are atheist by the way.

to continue.. we don't become robots if we give our lives to God.. not at all.  In fact we become more free in this world.. free from fear and an understanding and purpose for life.. and an afterlife.  But we're also guided away from sin, that's not a bad thing in todays world where moral decay is on the up and up

My life became a hell of alot more important and purposeful once I gave up on Jeebus.  It was like, I've got one life and that's it.  Better make the most of it.

Sure you do.
I live my life pretty much the same as an atheist. what would change?  I don't go to Church, atheists don't go to Church.  I don't see the devil behind every bush nor do Atheists.

You believe in an invisible Sky-God.  I don't.
