We do not NEED religion to know right from wrong and be our moral judges. We are quite capable of organising a civilised society without any religion poking its nose in. To think that all Atheists are evil nasties just because they do not believe in God or religion is NUTS. And to think that we depend on religion to teach us or interpret right from wrong is even more nuts. When religions themselves know right from wrong and start not just preaching it but practising it then maybe they will have a case. Up until then I reserve the right to point out or criticise preposterous actions weaknesses and hypocrisy practised in the name of religion. I do not have a problem with folk who believe in God on a personal level. But I do have a problem with all the baggage attached to religion....especially indoctrination and a refusal to accept that anybody else who does not believe or do as they do could maybe be right when they are wrong.

"Do not endeavor to be the smartest kid in a dumb class. Instead, you are better off being the dumbest kid in the smartest class, where you will be challenged and you will learn. If you aren't growing, you are dying." -Brian Austin Whitney
