Holly crap this fucker missed the entire point, and for an "atheist" this idiot is brain dead. YES WE DO MATTER FUCKWAD, just not in any superstitious bullshit gap answer context.

The first revolt is against the supreme tyranny of theology, of the phantom of God. As long as we have a master in heaven, we will be slaves on earth.
