I live in Australia, so if they are going to pray for me, or say god bless you, I say 'Don't bother, I am an Atheist. No compunction.…"

Dan posted a blog postJosh McDowell: The Internet is the Greatest Threat to Christians
http://www.christianpost.com/news/apologist-josh-mcdowell-internet-the-greatest-threat-to-christians-52382/Josh McDowell, who some may recognize from his apologetics, (Evidence That Demands a Verdict, or More Than a Carpenter?) says that the internet is the greatest threat to Christians and their faith. It is a great little article that I can sympathize with. The internet is…See More
Dan replied to Sassan K.'s discussion 'What is Exactly An "Atheist"'"I also tend to side with the spirit of the quote by Stephen F. Roberts "I contend that we are both atheists. I just believe in one fewer god than you do. When you understand why you dismiss all the other possible gods, you will understand why I…"
Dan replied to Sassan K.'s discussion 'What is Exactly An "Atheist"'"I prefer the term "apatheist" in that if there is a God, he doesn't seem to care about humanity or Earth, and so I don't care about gods. I consider myself an atheist because no definition of any god worth believing in is…"
Dan replied to Robert Karp's discussion 'Picking and choosing the right fight - Uproar Over "7 in Heaven Way"'"This isn't really a religious sign to me. There are many large cities named after saints; is that breaking the separation of church and state in any meaningful way? I don't care further because the implication is that religion doesn't…"

Japanese Earthquake/Tsunami

I went to CNN.com to check out some news on the Japanese disaster (BBC was loading too slowly for me) and, like an idiot, scrolled down to the comments section. What did I expect to find, hundreds of people calling for international relief and a moment of silence for the affected? No, as usual the religious crowd got there before I did, and made a mess of things.

I work at a Walmart, sucky job, but it's a way to get by as a college kid. A few weeks ago an older couple came through my line (I'm a cashier) and after paying, there was no one behind them, and they gentleman said "Son, have you heard lately that God loves you?"
