I am an atheist guided by reason, instructed by science, motivated by kindness - and I'm also kinda nice. (◕‿~)'

- About Me:
- I am a secular humanist. I rely on reason to understand the world, and compassion guides my effort to apply my knowledge ethically. I behave decently to everyone without any expectation of rewards or punishment after I'm dead.
I have never believed, even being raised in a strictly catholic home and educated in a catholic school and highschool. I was never capable of understanding, let alone believing in the concept of god. Omnipotence is a very weird construct for someone who doesn't do anything, and omnipresence... that’s just like Santa on Christmas Eve, right?

Don't miss our new interview with Dr. Elliott Sober. Dr. Sober is the Hans Reichenbach Professor and William F. Vilas Research Professor at the University of Wisconsin- Madison. One of the world's outstanding Philosophers of Science and author of the recently published Did Darwin Write The Origin Backwards?, in addition to numerous additional titles, his interests center on the Philosophy of Biology, evolution, altruism, and confronting "Intelligent Design". We're so happy Dr. Sober joined us to discuss evolution, The Design Argument, Fine-Tuning, and much more..
And if you missed our interview with Vanity Fair magazine's Editor-At-Large, Mr. Cullen Murphy, talking about his new book God's Jury all about The Inquisition, be sure to check that out! Fascinating and horrifying bit of history there!

Hi Monica
I really enjoyed your tweet/post on your site about militant atheism. Myself, like many if not most others feel the stigma of attacking religion and when simply stating a rational fact or belief which is considered taboo it's all of a sudden 'militant' in nature. Whereas if you make any other statement, regardless of how controversial, you won't be considered militant. Just like Dawkins and many others say, you can criticise someone's political ideology or anything else but as soon as religion is mentioned, then it's disrespectful and sacriligious. Thanks for sharing this enlightenment.
Thank you Monica for the greeting. You're truely an inspiration and send out such an amazing postive message. :)
Thanks Monica...been following you on twitter for a little while. Love your comments/perspective. Keep it up :)
