Her dad looks and sounds a bit like George Calin, awesome!
Kidding aside, her story is sadly typical, my heart goes out to her. She's why we do what we do. _________________ I am against religion because it teaches us to be satisfied with not understanding the world. - Richard Dawkins

Like in one of the many comments in that Youtube video, I used to think US was the greatest nation in the world because of its tolerance, reason and secularism; now I'm not entirely sure.

Didn't you know that America has always been a CHRISTIAN NATION? We're in the business of exposing popular myths on here. _________________ America is not worth the effort anymore. RIP. It was suicide.

I got the first six parts of the ABC show (RRS vs Kirk/Comfort) from Youtube. How many parts are there to the second half which aired recently and where can I get them? How long was the second half, by the way? _________________ ~I'm waiting for the day when mankind will outgrow religion.

Exactly. Even those Christians refuse to take in context or will be pissed off that raising their kids as Christians is just as the same thing as brainwashing than what they percieve to believe raising kids as atheists.

Maybe she's an Atheist because her father didn't force religion on her. Being born an Atheist (as we all are and then later LEARNING about god) might have been her way of saying that she's never been persuaded to believe in the shit. No reason to suspect brainwashing, and girls mature faster than boys, intellectually as well as physically, and she's in high school forming her own ideas and beliefs anyway, she labeled herself, thats much less suspicious than a 6 year old "CATHOLIC CHILD" /wince _________________ “Here, here's American Gladiators.
