Did you know? John Quincy Adams
"Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof;"
-First Amendment, Constitution of the United States of America
Believing with you that religion is a matter which lies solely between man and his God, that he owes account to none other for his faith or his worship, that the legislative powers of government reach actions only, and not opinions, I contemplate with sovereign reverence that act of the whole American people which declared that their legislature should 'make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof,' thus building a wall of separation between church and State.
-Thomas Jefferson, letter to Danbury Baptist Association, CT., Jan. 1, 1802
Neil deGrass Tyson - The problem
Neil deGrasse Tyson speaks it. In fact, the only problem I have with this quote is that the idea of "success" is so skewed towards wealth and fame. As long as you realize that being a successful person isn't necessarily about making money or being famous then you won't start taking this quote down the wrong path.
Michael Sherlock - Must I really explain
Yeah, you think it would be self evident at some point. It is amazing just how resistant most believer are to seeing the plain truth of just how out dated and offensive their primary texts are.

The god of Abraham
But, his son (who is actually him) is coming back any day now and then all those damn non-believers will be forced to admit that they were wrong. (And, for those that can't tell- that was sarcasm.)
