ATHEISTS DO NOT MAKE HISTORY

Atheists do not make history. That's a fact. Can you think of any historical event that was made by Atheists? As a simplistic answer to the unasked question, "Why don't Atheists make history?" it is because there is no money to be made in atheism. Money means power. Power means war. Huge amounts of money are made by going to war, even if it is war against Indians or Spaniards. And whoever wins the war makes the history. Does that make sense?

God-believers make history. We study the Crusades. Now THAT's history. Christians against Moslems. The Moslems had it. The Christians wanted it. War. Money out and money in. Let's look at Columbus and the "discovery" of the "New World." In 1492Columbus sailed the ocean blue in ships bought and paid for by their Catholic majesties, Queen Isabella and King Ferdinand. He did not fall over the edge of the world. He sailed around until he bumped into America. Indians lived there because Columbus was sailing to India. The Indians had gold and no God. Columbus had no gold and had God. They made an exchange. Columbus gave the Indians God and the Indians gave Columbus gold. Now that's history. No Atheists were involved.

In World War II, we were told that there were no Atheists in fox-holes. Everyone who was shooting at anyone, was not an Atheist. Not the Nazis, not the Fascisti of Italy nor Hirohito's Japanese warriors, not the Communist Russians, and certainly not the other good guys, the Allies, were Atheists. Nope. They all believed in God and God was on THEIR side. Oh boy! A lot of history was made in World War II. But not by Atheists.

So I wonder, if Atheists don't believe in God, does that mean they don't believe in war? Or do they simply not believe in making history?
