According to thehumanist.com most of us are "village atheists"

Quote:
- Referring to feminism as a cult while religiously assembling at the altar of Richard Dawkins and Sam Harris.
Given the fucking cultish behaviour of many feminists I see, I will definitely call some feminists cultists.
Quote:
- Esteeming everything that comes out of Bill Maher’s mouth and endorsing the disconnected, conservative-laden ramblings of Ayaan Hirsi Ali.
As a mar fan, I can not think of a atheist that didn't call bullshit during his anti-vaxxer phase. As for hirsi ali, she has done more for womens right then most people do in a live time and she forever has my respect for that.
There is more, have fun
To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow,
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day,
To the last syllable of recorded time;
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle!
Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player,
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage,
And then is heard no more. It is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.

Wanna link to the article?
"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great

Youll have to forgive me if I couldn't give two shits what some blogger thinks.

People love building those straw men, so they have something to hit at instead of the non-existent target atheism presents.

Jebus, whenever I see someone call themselves humanist, they more likely than not turn out to be haughty and insufferable moralier-than-thou types.
The fool hath said in his heart, There is a God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good.

I'm a humanist.
A Christian told me: if you were saved you cant lose your salvation. you're sealed with the Holy Ghost
I replied: Can I refuse? Because I find the entire concept of vicarious blood sacrifice atonement to be morally abhorrent, the concept of holding flawed creatures permanently accountable for social misbehaviors and thought crimes to be morally abhorrent, and the concept of calling something "free" when it comes with the strings of subjugation and obedience perhaps the most morally abhorrent of all... and that's without even going into the history of justifying genocide, slavery, rape, misogyny, religious intolerance, and suppression of free speech which has been attributed by your own scriptures to your deity. I want a refund. I would burn happily rather than serve the monster you profess to love.

I liked the article and the comments underneath were just as interesting.

Meh, I'm a humanist. I put people first. That's really all it means.
