Atheist bullying

Whomerang: /* Christians/Creationists countering YouTube cyberbullying */

'''Atheist bullying''' is a problem in many [[public schools]], where student populations are becoming increasingly atheist or non-religious and are less likely to keep their lack of faith out of school discourse. [[Atheist]] students are commonly engaging in persecution of [[Christian]] students, encouraged by the out-spoken nature of the growing number of adherents of [[New Atheism]], such as [[Richard Dawkins]].

In serious cases, atheist bullying has lead to Christian students being pulled out of public schools to undergo [[home-schooling]] or private tuition, as their academic life has become intolerable.

Many school shootings are thought to be related to atheist bullying. The most infamous, the [[Columbine]] shooting, was partly perpetrated by an atheist.

It is feared that the rising number of militant atheist students will lead to more frequent - and deadly - school shootings in the future.
== Christians/Creationists countering YouTube cyberbullying ==

Campus Crusade for Christ International (CCCI) is one of the world's largest evangelism organizations within Christendom and has over 25,000 full time missionaries. In 2006, Alan Beeber of CCCI predicted that [[internet evangelism]] will result in more conversion that all other forms of evangelism for CCCI combined.<ref>http://www.lausanneworldpulse.com/pdf/issues/LWP0206.pdf</ref> There is a widespread problem with atheist cyberbullying on [[YouTube]] toward [[Christian]] and [[creationism|creationist]] YouTube channels. [[CreationWiki]] has developed a web page entitled [http://creationwiki.org/Creationist_YouTube_video Creationist YouTube video] designed to show creationists how to thwart atheist/evolutionist cyberbullies. Also, one less known Christian YouTube channel, [[shockofgod]], was shut down several times by atheist cyberbullying through false reports, but [http://creationwiki.org/Anticreationist_youtube_debate_tactics he developed counter measures to overcome this problem]. <ref>http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kax-zAJxi-U</ref> These false reports are not isolated incidents, many atheists will try this deceitful tactic to block out [[creation science]].

Whomerang:

One suggestion for the origin of the term '''"Common Era" (CE)''' is an anti-Christian attempt to conceal that Jesus is the historical basis for the primary calendar dating system. "Common Era" has no real meaning, and even the origin of this term is unclear. A later edition (11th) defines it as the Christian Era. The first recorded use of the phrase "common era" was in 1708.<ref>[http://books.google.com/books?id=D_wvAAAAYAAJ&pg=RA2-PA515&dq=%22common+era%22&lr=lang_en&as_drrb_is=b&as_minm_is=1&as_miny_is=800&as_maxm_is=1&as_maxy_is=1740&as_brr=0&cd=2#v=onepage&q=%22common%20era%22&f=false ''History of the Works of the Learned'', January 1703]</ref>

The established calendar dating system, which uses the 'AD' notation, is based on the calculations of [[Dionysius Exiguus]] for the birthyear of [[Jesus]] relative to the foundation of Rome.<ref>[http://eclipse.gsfc.nasa.gov/SEhelp/calendars.html Index to Calendars, NASA site]</ref> At the time, dates used the 'AD' system instituted by pagan and murderer Emperor Diocletian, which used his own date of birth as year 0. Because Dionysius Exiguus in the year 525 wanted to end the memorialization of an evil man who persecuted Christians, he invented a new numbering system based on his calculations of the birth year of Jesus Christ.

While the use of the phrase "Common Era" has existed for hundreds of years, only recently have [[political correctness|politically correct]] [[liberals]] attempted to replace all instances of 'AD' with 'CE.' The original use of 'CE' was to avoid the common practice of countries basing their dates on when their rulers reached power <ref>ex. 15 years in the rulership of King Steven the Third</ref> or were born, i.e. the "regal era" from the birthdate of Jesus Christ, which belonged to all men "the common era." While use of "Common Era" attempts to erase recognition for the Christian basis of the calendar, there are no similar attempts to erase non-Christian religious names from the calendar, such as the days of the week named after Norse gods. Numerous texts, particularly schoolbooks, have replaced "B.C./A.D." with "Common Era" symbols over the past decade so as to embrace the fact that schools contain all mixes of society.

Whomerang: This article was a little biased and maybe even offensive to the non-Christian community. Hardly fitting for The Trustworthy Encyclopedia.

The term '''"Common Era" (CE)''' is an anti-Christian attempt to conceal that Jesus is the historical basis for the primary calendar dating system. "Common Era" has no real meaning, and even the origin of this term is unclear. Another suggestion is that it is merely an attempt to be more multi-cultural. This would involve the non-Christian community being able to cite dates without referencing Christ, whom in they might not believe. A later edition (11th) defines it as the Christian Era. The first recorded use of the phrase "common era" was in 1708.<ref>[http://books.google.com/books?id=D_wvAAAAYAAJ&pg=RA2-PA515&dq=%22common+era%22&lr=lang_en&as_drrb_is=b&as_minm_is=1&as_miny_is=800&as_maxm_is=1&as_maxy_is=1740&as_brr=0&cd=2#v=onepage&q=%22common%20era%22&f=false ''History of the Works of the Learned'', January 1703]</ref>

'''Anders Behring Breivik''' was accused of, and has since admitted, murdering at least 76 people[1] in Norway on July 22, 2011. A bomb was set off near government buildings in Oslo, killing 8. Some time later, Breivik, dressed as a policeman, gained access to the island of Utoya, where a youth camp was being sponsored by the Norwegian Labor Party. After gathering the attendees into a group, Breivik reportedly began shooting, killing at least 68 people there.
He has been charged with acts of terrorism. While appearing before a judge on July 25, 2011, Breivik admitted to the acts but pleaded not guilty.[2]
He was born in Oslo, Norway on February 13th, 1979.

On his Facebook profile, Breivik describes himself as a Christian. He states that he chose to be baptised into the Protestant Church of Norway at the age of 15 although he later became disenchanted with Norway's State Church, supporting “an indirect collective conversion of the Protestant church back to the Catholic” in an online post in 2009.
