What happens when Fox gets ahold of this guy?!

Dr. Wynne LeGrow may be the first "open" atheist to secure such a position in the US. While the political prejudice against atheists is barely even a blip on the political radar today, it seems like it may only be a matter of time, albeit a long time.

It's a good thing hell I may be only 15 but one of the things I'll do when I enter the big wide world is do my best so that the Roman Catholic church is removed from the face of the Earth, why??? because since their Inception they have been a bunch of dogmatic pricks, and then take care of the muslims. Hell even Jews ( the religious sort not the race) should be surgically removed... don't get me started on religion please

So... you are looking to take their place as the world's most destructive force, then? You are looking to be the one comitting the mass murders?

you have to believe in something to be an athiest. In a strange way alot of them probably have more faith than most christians. character is the only thing that matters, and not religion. there is only right and wrong, not religion. Who gives a terd? The terds.

Well, I don't know about that one. In '99 a poll showed that almost half (48%) of the country wouldn't vote for an atheist, simply because they're an atheist.

Actually, here's some of the other results from that along with previous studies:

Catholic: 4% (1937: 30%)
Black: 5% (1958: 63%, 1987: 21%)
Jewish: 6% (1937: 47%)
Baptist: 6%
Woman: 8%
Mormon: 17%
Muslim: 38%
Gay: 37% (1978: 74%)
Atheist: 48%

It's good to see we can get over nonsense, although, I bet the Muslim thing is even higher now.

atheism is the lack of a belief in a god. that's all. faith need not come into it.

If necessary, what I'm saying is that the church has been holding humanity back for far too long, you imagine how the world would have been had the church not existed, we would have 3x the knowledge we have now and 4x the technology. And if I say the muslims most be eliminated is because they are dangerous in a sense seeing how the Quran promotes violence.... but so does the bible.Hypocrites all of them.

you can writhe about all you'd like with definitions, but atheism is neither a faith nor a religion.
