hpqpsays...*equality and *gay as well. Very good talk, as usual coming from QualiaSoup.
siftbotsays...Adding video to channels (Equality, Gay) - requested by hpqp.
siftbotsays...Moving this video to xxovercastxx's personal queue. It failed to receive enough votes to get sifted up to the front page within 2 days.
hpqpsays...*quality breakdown of what secularism means, and why it's ridiculous to whine about supposedly "militant secularism".
siftbotsays...Boosting this quality contribution up in the Hot Listing - declared quality by hpqp.
gwiz665says...It's like saying warmongering peace.

I beg to differ on the semantics.
Militant: "vigorously active, combative and aggressive, especially in support of a cause"
A "militant secularist" might be someone who actively seeks out examples of theism (such a prayer, acknowledgment of a divine power, or symbols of theist holidays in government settings) in order to protest, or one that continues their opposition despite broad support for theist behavior in the affected community. You can determine for yourself if this type of action is objectionable or laudable, but I think it's entirely possible to be a "militant secularist".
