This image captures one of them : the absurdity of thinking that a god so powerful , so wise , so good would demand worship from humans and would condemn them to eternal punishment for the crime of not believing .

For the last 1700 years, religion has had a free pass in our society, it has embedded itself deeply into every facet of social and public life, and it has grown fond of its privileges. Then Darwin showed that we … Continue reading →Robin: Look, I get it, Jaime. As an atheist, you think that God’s wisdom is foolishness, that God’s righteousness is wickedness, and that the bloody death of Jesus on the cross is hateful and ugly rather than the epitome of love and beauty that Christians like I think it is. The Bible makes it very [...]...

RIGHT now, there’s a blazing exchange taking place on the BBC World Service’s Facebook page, following a broadcast on religion this morning which utterly infuriated me. Getting wound up by the squads of religionists who get a disproportionate amount of airtime on the BBC is something that happens to people like me far too often [...]

We've seen countless examples of bigotry directed at us by Christians , including elected officials who are supposed to know better . And it is not just the Christians the record is not much better for members of other mainstream religions . I suspect we can agree that there are multiple reasons for how we are perceived by many religious . individuals A number of prominent atheist bloggers

There’s a lot of discussion raging right now about the faster-than-light neutrinos that supposedly have been observed at the CERN laboratories. Will this discovery disprove parts of Einstein’s Theory of Relativity and radically change the way we view the universe? Or is this just another case of experimental error? Whatever the outcome, the one thing [...]
Is that Jesus? NOPE! Just Chuck Testa! Note: Chuck Testa does not taxidermize pets, but if you have any dead messiahs you want to preserve in the most lifelike way possible, just send them his way.
I saw this picture of a guy wearing a t-shirt that said "There's a picture of the prophet Muhammad on the back of my t-shirt." on the front, and on the back, "Just kidding. Praise Allah".
So I thought, what if...
So... you get into a discussion with some Christians, assert that the Bible is full of contradictions and get asked for evidence. What do you do?

"Today, after church, my 5-year-old son asked me about God, so I answered his questions in full. We talked about God for over 2 hours. At the end of it all, he pondered for a moment, before saying to me "That's the stupidest thing I ever heard. You're dumb." FML"
Thank God for zombie moves. Or rather, thank Jesus for zombie movies. Actually, thank the crackpots who wrote the Bible - they had a wonderful imagination judging by '80s Hollywood standards.
Anyone who thinks that Atheists are by definition not spiritual beings really needs to watch this lovely video by A. Hughman. I choked up with emotion because it expresses the way I feel more eloquently than I suppose I ever could. I was also reminded of Carl Sagan when he said: In some respects, science [...]
"If Evolution is true, why help the poor?" Probably the dumbest thing ever displayed on a church sign!Here's a short interview with a delightfully endearing Bertrand Russell - the atheist philosopher who came up with the famous Russell's Teapot argument that inspired our Russell's Teapot t-shirt. What a brilliant and insightful old man! Enjoy!

A few have come in the form of comments many more have come via email , Twitter , etc . Some have raised important issues that map on well to future posts I have planned for the series , and it makes sense to address them at that time .

This is often justified by their concerns about our morality , as many doubt that we can be good without their preferred god(s I think it is also fair to speculate that we may be viewed in this manner because our presence reminds religious believers that the might be wrong . However , I've been wondering lately about whether an even more important reason for perceiving us as a threat might be our tendency to question the status quo , particularly the religious

I want an atheist community that celebrates diversity and that strives to be welcoming to all atheists . This is not the sort of atheist community we currently have . How do I know First and most importantly , I have heard the accounts of many atheist women . Many have not experienced our community as particularly welcoming . It is great that some
