Bob Jones University Commencement (8 May 1999)

Theocracy will soon rear its ugly head again in America. This time, it may win.

Then I may yet have a chance to be notorious.
We 'new atheists' have a reputation for being militant, but make no mistake  we didn't start this war. If you want to place blame put it on the the religious zealots who have been poisoning the minds of the  young for a long long time."

I don't think so ... theocracy doesn't come from people who grab p*****s ;-(

America is too profane for theocracy.

We all bow down to you, Michael Valentine Smith.
Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able?<br />Then he is not omnipotent,<br />Is he able but not willing?<br />Then whence cometh evil?<br />Is he neither able or willing?<br />Then why call him god?

I always thought Heinlein got that wrong; since my name is Michael the 'Valentine' needs to come second.

When I see him I'll explain that to him.

No, it comes from their handlers, who know that religion is the only thing that keeps the poor from murdering the rich.

Can anyone even prove any deity or deity representative ever existed?  Can anyone show that the Christian Jesus existed?  The others too. 

Atheist born, atheist bred.  And when I die, atheist dead!

Not even slim evidence for such, much less "proved." They can't even agree on any definition of their God, it's just some vague, amorphous father-figure.

I think what can't be defined can't exist.

I could be wrong, though...

Yeah, I thought I was wrong once before, but it turned out I was mistaken...

They can't even agree on the interpretations of the texts, much less on the mythical gods within them.

I can know you, or know writings about you.  As it is, I only have the latter.  But you aren't mythical, are you?
