An Atheist Student At A Catholic University...

...feels marginalized because the university wouldn't recognize his Atheist/Secularist organization:
"And yet while we at the DSS understood Duquesne was a Catholic University, we did not see anything controversial about promoting critical thinking, rationality, and scientific inquiry on a college campus. This is, after all, the 21st century. And we also knew that among the 230 student groups on campus were a Jewish organization, a Muslim organization, and a LGBT group, groups that hold beliefs directly antithetical to Catholicism. We felt we had a chance."
Well, since Atheists do not "promoting critical thinking, rationality, and scientific inquiry" regardless of their claims, apparently the Catholic admins saw through that lie. Atheism is a direct attack on the foundations and principles of the university. To ignore or deny that is just lying... well, not for Atheists, but in a Catholic environment lies still are lies.

So dude: find an Atheist university; they're a dime a dozen. Just look for a staff full of feminists, and keep your pants pulled up.

Wait a minute, isn't this group - atheists, secularists, whateverists - the same group that claims it is not a religion but a LACK of religious belief?

How can they claim the one as an 'answer' to folks demanding their proof, then claim the other when it gives them an imagined foothold on an institution that is specifically based on Christian religious beliefs?

They claim to be the 'voice of reason', yet they consistently embrace both of two mutually exclusive positions and declare them BOTH to be equally valid.

That may be something. It may be a lot of things. But it isn't rational.
