So if there is no God ... Why don't we just invade every mosque in Iraq and do whatever killing we need to further our cause? All we have to tell the muslims is, is that there is no God. Surely we can drive this point home with them.

Indeed, considering that FSTDT.com is filled with quotes from fine, upstanding Christian hardliners who want nothing more than peace and tolerance towards other religions. Surely an atheist president would have already nuked the Middle East!
Sarcasm aside, I recall that Leonard Peikoff supported nuking Afghanistan after 9/11. Ah, radical objectivists. Every philosophy is tarnished by its extremists.
Invade the mosques and kill the worshippers, then "explain" to the muslims that there is no God? And they're supposed to just accept that and be fine with the slaughter of their people? This "Riddick" character gives me the creeps; he's obviously got some serious sociopathic tendencies, and his "reasoning" is seriously flawed.

Because religion does not equal morality. I don't know about you, but the reason I don't kill, rape, etc is because I know that it is bad, not for lust of heaven or fear of hell.
However, let's assume you have some sort of point there (which you really, really don't). Why would it have to be you killing them? Why couldn't it be them killing you? Your beliefs are no more or less valid than theirs, so why should you have any sort of highground?
In my case, it is called "conscience." It comes from taking responsibility for one's actions: no "god will know his own" or "the devil made me do it" dodges allowed.
It is something that your lot will never understand. That is why I oppose you.
Why don't we just invade every Church in the US?
Because it's disrepectful, stupid! People have the right to attend churches and mosques in a democracy.
What people can't do is force their belief onto other people. Your rights end where mine begins.
If there is no God, then this is all the life we will ever have. Let's take care of and cherish that life, live it to its fullest, and help others to live their lives in peace and harmony.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
