:"Many atheists have superior knowledge of bible compared to Christians." Such as... who, exactly? The people behind the "Evil Bible" and "Skeptic's Annotated Bible" websites, perhaps?

:: That is absolutely not true. The origin of democracy can be traced even before Christianity. Democracy started in ancient Greek philosophy. It was initially classified by [[Plato]]. Ancient forms of democracy was even prevalent in Ancient Indian civilisation,again before the advent of Christianity. Modern democracies like British democracy came due to the ruthless actions of the king, nothing to do with Christianity. Democracy is a secular institution. Can you provide citations regarding any of the above claims? --[[User:JBuscombe|JBuscombe]] 14:33, 6 January 2008 (EST).
