Sick of Religion in Politics
This Country wasn’t founded on Christian beliefs, scriptures, morality, or religion, nor are the Ten Commandments the basis of all of our laws, so stop saying it. I’m sick and tired of having every speech followed with “…and God Bless the United States”. God’s not blessing anything.Just look around. Do we LOOK like we’ve been blessed? via spaninquis.wordpress.com

Richard Dawkins is No Messiah
I’m a fan of Richard Dawkins, but the only people who think his role in the atheist movement is a messianic one are those who don’t pay any attention to the atheist movement. I’m not always on his side, and I feel no obligation to be. via cubiksrube.wordpress.com I agree completely. It is sad that people need to be reminded of this so often, but they do.

“If this is your God, he’s not very impressive. He has so many psychological problems; he’s so insecure. He demands worship every seven days. He goes out and creates faulty humans and then blames them for his own mistakes. He’s a pretty poor excuse for a Supreme Being.”
— Gene Roddenberry

Pushing Beliefs: Atheists vs. Theists
But what are atheists really pushing anyway? Are we telling people that if they don’t believe as we do they will be and should be tortured for all eternity? No, that’s what the religious do. We are simply telling people to think critically, learn about science and history, and embrace reality. If you don’t, you will be tortured for a lifetime of ignorance. That’s it. via dangeroustalk.net

Another Day, Another Dragon | Daylight Atheism
I believe that the human race has an amazing future ahead of it. But if we’re going to get there, the last thing we need is people putting obstacles in our path. Instead, we’re repeatedly seeing these depressingly predictable stories about believers doing just that: pompous old men preaching doctrines from the dark ages who think their moldering books hold all the knowledge...

Bill Gates on Taxes
Well the United States has a huge budget deficit, so taxes are going to have to go up. And I certainly agree that they should go up more on the rich than everyone else. That’s just justice. - Bill Gates

Atheism Does Not Have a Public Relations Problem
Our presence and are willingness to speak our minds are sufficient to agitate many religious believers. Short of converting or remaining silent and scared, I do not believe that our church-state activism is the main reason we are hated. Erecting billboards with vanilla messages about how one can be good without god are perceived by many as assaults on Christianity. Speaking out is enough. Being...

Muslims Have No Right To Control Others
Let’s be clear about this: The religious rule that Muhammad should never be depicted in artwork is a rule for Muslims… They can abide by that rule if they choose to, but they have no right to demand that everyone who doesn’t believe in their religion do the same. They frame this as a matter of “respect”, but what it really is is a naked demand to control the behavior...

How The Mainstream Media Has Tebowed America On...
Every single corporate media cable news network and broadcast network in the United States has signed on as a supporter of SOPA, so it isn’t a surprise that they would ignore the story. One of the trends in the corporate mainstream media is that if they feel threatened by a story like Occupy Wall Street or the Wisconsin protests they simply deem it non news and ignore it. via politicususa.com

Secular America
The fabric of America is secularism. Democracy, egalitarianism, civil rights, equal protection, freedom of conscience, freedom of religion, tolerance, multiculturalism, freedom of speech, freedom of assembly—these are the special revolutionary ideals that made America (and other countries born of the Enlightenment) special and distinctive. via freethoughtblogs.com

Kelly Clarkson on Ron Paul
Singer Kelly Clarkson tweeted that she supported Republican/Libertarian Ron Paul for the GOP nomination. After some push back she clarified that she didn’t support his more homophobic, anti-woman, anti-poor, anti-minority views. Clarkson is entitled to her views but her love of Ron Paul while seeming to ignore the extreme side of him, is troubling. via dougberger.net

Real Christians Don't Have Christmas Trees
Thus saith the Lord, Learn not the way of the heathen…. For the customs of the people are vain: for one cutteth a tree out of the forest, the work of the hands of the workman, with the axe. They deck it with silver and with gold; they fasten it with nails and with hammers, that it move not. Jeremiah 10:2-4, KJV

The Value of Religious Diversity
I want diversity because it makes the mindset that leads to coercion more difficult. When your neighbor is Wiccan, your brother is an atheist, your in-laws are mystics and your children are dabbling in new religions at college, it is going to be hard for you to think of your local Baptist church as the only real religion and that everything else as superstition. via patheos.com
jsutanotherteenageboy asked: I'm all for the idea that things like the catholic church are straight up evil, however in some posts you mention restricting religion to private life. One philosophical argument would be that we cannot assume our fallibility. This means we cannot be sure we are right so surely we have no right to impress what we believe on other people. Do you believe religion should be banned from public or...
