It's illegal to do this and you can't hold America as a whole responsible for this.

Illegal? Studies are illegal? RIP Scientific Method

You obviously did not get what I'm saying. It's illegal to throw away packages as it seems the postal service is doing, and you can't blame America as a whole for the actions of a few people who allow this to happen.
-
I misunderstood. Apologies.
-
What part of it is illegal?
-
The part where they throw away the packages.
-
Can it be proven thaat they were thrown away as opposed to being held by customs?
-
Regardless there is no inherent reason why you should stop a package just because it has the word atheist on it. It doesn't even imply that there's anything illegal about the packages, it's just the name of the company.
-
You seem to be implying that it was held by either the Mail service or Customs because of the label as opposed to random checks by customs or something of that nature.
-
Well why would this company lose so many packages that had the tape labeled "Atheist" on it? I'm not saying that it's certain that that's the reason why they're stopping them, but it does seem a little bit suspicious.
-
I can not explain why they would lose so many packages however it seems like it would be hard to prove that was the reason why they were lost.SO while it may be illegal i do not feel they could get enough evidence to charge them with anything if they decided to go down that route.
-
The whole point of the study is that the results are statistically significant, and therefore unlikely to be the result of "random checks." Please take a statistics class.

The part Mr Silly Man doesn't agree with.

Silly and I probably disagree on just about everything politically, but I must say that the lot of you criticizing him suck shit with your reading comprehension. There is nothing wrong with anything he said at all. It is completely illegal for a postal service to throw out packages. This is something that should never be happening, yet it is due to the nature of certain zealous individuals working in our postal service that apparently get incredibly buttmad when they see the word atheist.
