I'd rather no one suffer than just the stupid people."

I have to say it sounds as though atheists in the US have a far more difficult time 'coming out' than we do over here. It sounds as though atheists are really…"

With respect to "guidance" and atheism, if that is what you're referring to, I think Atheism, A Very Short Introduction (Baggini) and Atheism, the Case Against God (Smith) are decent books to start with. There…"

There is a bloke named Tim Minchin. He is a stand up, very smart comedian, and he was doing shows all over America. So there are lots of Atheists, maybe undercover, seeing guys like this.
He gives people hope, gives them a backbone, and reinforces the stupidity of religion. There are many videos here. Watch and get angry, and/or watch and laugh.

Welcome and Fantastic Yuletide for you. Lots of really clever people on this site, and you will learn so much. One of the things that becomes obvious, is that when xians come onto to this site, they don't know the bible, or why many of us became Atheists in the first place. It will hone your skills, educate you and will be fun. Don't get angry, and I know that is hard to actually do, but know your 'stuff', and you can call someone's belief vitriolic, vengeful and misogynistic, with a smile, as I do, when Jehovah's Witness come knocking at my door :) Lots of different groups here, and have fun. This is the place to purge.
