Happy Birthday, Professor Dawkins! Although we have never met, watching your videos and reading your material has helped me come completely out of the darkness of religion, superstition, etc. I will have a toast for you today. Here's to many, many more years, Richard.

2. Are they running for President or Pastor-in-Chief?

Damn. This is scary. I don't think it would be as big an issue to most of the candidates if the media wouldn't harp on religion. But with all the pandering by the candidates, they have to include it, and whoever wins will likely try to inject faith into everything to please the christians. Well, this IS Jesusland! (ugh)

Quotes of Note:

"The trouble is that God in this sophisticated, physicist's sense bears no resemblance to the God of the Bible or any other religion."

Richard Dawkins

"So far as I can remember, there is not one word in the Gospels in praise of intelligence."

Bertrand Russell

"The day will come when the mystical generation of Jesus…will be classed with the fable of the generation of Minerva in the brain of Jupiter."

Thomas Jefferson

"There are, however, exceptions to this reliance on feelings as evidence of truth: if, for instance, your feelings lead to disbelief instead of belief, they're apt to be dismissed as some form of denial. This is not a common problem. Usually intellectualism, not "feeling reality," is blamed for disbelief. But, some angel experts suggest, there may be emotional as well as intellectual barriers to belief: unwillingness to believe in angels can reflect low self-esteem."

Wendy Kaminer

"I don't believe in God because I don't believe in Mother Goose."

Clarence Darrow
