10 Myths Many Religious People Hold About Atheists, Debunked

[thesummerqueen]

In regards to your rhyming, I submit the message of Dr. John Ellis:

So they are busy out-poeting me, and I'm not even entered in the match? Hardly seems fair. But a lot less stressful ;-)

There once was an Atheist from 'Marillo.
Who could outpoet the best Forum dildo.
Not allowed in the Game;
Only Rachel to Blame,
But wishing them all no ill will though.

Great read, summer!

My favorite part, and one which touches on a the topic of a recent thread:

Atheist[s] are routinely asked how people will know not to rape and murder without religion telling them not to do it, especially a religion that backs up the orders with threats of hell. Believers, listen to me carefully when I say this: When you use this argument, you terrify atheists. We hear you saying that the only thing standing between you and Ted Bundy is a flimsy belief in a supernatural being made up by pre-literate people trying to figure out where the rain came from. This is not very reassuring if you’re trying to argue from a position of moral superiority.

Fucking brilliant!

Yeah. I have some good friends who find some pretty awesome stuff.

Spoony tried her hand - anyone care to finish it?

I'm inspired by that wonderful atheist article:


Don't judge an atheist by its cover,
You'll find that they're like any other,
Except more rested on Sundays...

Don't judge an atheist by its cover,
You'll find that they're like any other,
Except more rested on Sundays...
More real on Mondays,
Having had a better time with their lover.
