Finally! My oppressed atheist brothers and sisters will have a voice!

Black Power!

Women's Rights!

Gay Pride!

I support every one of those causes. But where is the love for my people?

We cannot help that we were born this way. We did not ask to be this damn intelligent! We are just able to keep things in perspective. We are not easily drawn into the web of religious voodoo that clouds our vision and makes us see things through a religious prism.

We tend to question everything, is that really so wrong? I am not saying we are better. Okay I am saying we are better! But I don't look down at people of faith. Okay, I do sort of look down on people of faith. But I feel bad about it!

And we make mistakes as well. For instance, I have been married twice! I mean really, how smart can I be? And if I am cut I bleed just like religious people. Of course I am smart enough to seek medical treatment and don't just stand there waiting for God to heal me!

When bad things happen to me I don't blame Satan. I blame other people. And when good things happen to me I don't give credit to God. I take credit myself.

All I am asking is can't we all just get along? I will try not to act all superior if you don't constantly threaten to call down God's wrath on me. Deal? Oh, and if you are female and you want to yell out "Jesus" or "Oh God, oh God" during sex that is totally cool with me!
