"A hungry man is not a free man." -Adlai Stevenson II, lawyer, politician, and diplomat (5 Feb 1900-1965)

12K Followers 13K Following BA/JD, Econ/Law/Politics "The fact that a great many people believe something is no guarantee of its truth." W. S. Maugham #BerneseMtnDog #Tennis #FreedomExcept that shadows don't cause bigotry, misogyny, pain, aging, starvation, disease, oppression, cancer, rape, murder, torture, death, or war. Why can't Christians make valid analogies, FFS? It's like the fundamental premise underlying their worldview is false or something...
Saying evil disproves God is like saying the shadow disproves the sun.
No one kills for atheism
When you believe in things That you don't understand, Then you suffer, Superstition aint the way.
Any woman seeking god or fellowship in a fundamentalist church is thereby agreeing to assume and endorse a subservient role to men whether they realize it or not. And the same applies to any woman who votes for the GOP.
That I love to “sin”. That I think something came from nothing. That I have no basis for morals. That I never really believed when I was a Christian. That I hate/reject god. That I had some church trauma. That I belonged to the wrong denomination.
Hey atheists, what are some of the most annoying things religious people assume about you because you’re an #atheist? 🤔
It is completely unsafe for women and children to live in the U.S. with this GOP and I say this without exaggeration.
Arizona Republicans are cheering for a law made by a pedophile who abducted a 12 yo child & forced her to marry him/have his babies, then divorced her. “We want to bring the 1860’s into the 21st century. Sex with children is ok too. USA USA.” ^ This IS the actual GOP platform.
If we grow up being taught a certain religion or ideology, our perception of that stays with us and we view the world through that lens as the accepted norm.
Why do you think it is important? How many people actually write anymore….we type. I even signed my last few documents on docusign with a touch. Teach them critical thinking instead.
Praying 5x a day is one of the Five Pillars of Islamic faith. It allegedly cleanses the soul of wrongful actions & enables talking to & honouring Allah. It gives a sense of community with fellow Muslims. Most of all, it self-indoctrinates & keeps Islamic authorities in control!
Remember, under Donald Trump, Iran began building nuclear weapons.
Remember, under Donald Trump, Iran was nearly bankrupt and on the run.
Religion is a 75 BILLION DOLLAR INDUSTRY in the United States. I will be opening a church soon.
So, I’m petitioning tribal council to have this outhouse named after Trump. Who supports me in this endeavor? 🖐🏾
MAGA Republicans want billionaires to pay less in taxes and seniors to work longer before they can retire with full Social Security benefits. I’ve got a better idea. Let’s protect Social Security and Medicare and make the very wealthy begin to pay their fair share.
Womp womp 🤡
And just like that, a bullshit impeachment is over.
