Freedom From Religion Foundation Inc.

I apologize ahead of time if this topic has already been discussed here, however I personally just came across this website from first hearing about it on a local Christian radio station.
For those of you who are not familiar with this organization, they are essentially a non-profit group who opposed anything to do with Christian beliefs, prayer, public support of God, or God being mentioned anywhere. I have not thoroughly looked over their website, but based on a few of the links which I have went to, it made me feel very disheartened to think that there are people like this out there today who are so opposed to Christianity and God, that they will live their lives fighting against those of us who are believers. Reminds me of Ephesians 6:12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. Essentially saying, we're not fighting against man, but rather against Satan. And Satan has a firm grip on groups such as this.

On thing which really caught my attention was the "depatismal certificates." Essentially, you can purchase one of these as an official way of denying Christ as your savior...in so many words.

Run by an ex-minister, Dan Barker. I'm reading his book Godless right now. Not impressed so far.

Just goes to show you that Satan is still alive and well on planet Earth, deceiving the deceiveable.

And these idiots don't even realize they are fullfilling God's Prophetic word: " ...the Spirit speaks expressly that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits and doctrines of devils, speaking lies in hypocrisy..."(1Tim.4:1)

Perhaps when you are done, you wouldn't mind giving us a short synopsis.

I just find it interesting how violently Christians typically rebel against the idea of Christianity being a religion, and then scorn an organization like FFRF.

Yep, I was just thinking, freedom from religion sounds good to me. I think that's why Jesus came, to set the Jews free from their religion.

Yeah, that's what we mean when we say it but as the site in Progressguy's shows clearly that's not what these guys are about at all. Ironically? I was on one of their sister sites earlier last night and read with dismay how they promote "family planning" through abortion and boldly proclaim removal of all forms of "religion" from state is a good thing.

This is just more of the same going around everywhere - know just enough about Christianity to make it look like what your organization is doing is good. Learn the right words to impress people of faith by clever banter, get some Pastors, Doctors and other "experts" on your board for legitimacy, all the while having a real agenda that is nothing short of demonic.

Mt 7:20 Therefore, by their fruits you will know them.
