Should The Bible Be Taught In Schools?
The short answer is NO! These Bible-thumpers who just will not quit need to STOP!!! Leave religion out of public institutions already. No doubt, these people have already indoctrinated their kids. Now, leave the rest of the children alone! TGO … Continue reading
Now Muslim parents are complaining about flyers for Easter egg hunts
I am completely in favor of the separation between Church and State, and have stated as much in this Blog on many occasions. But kids hunting for colored eggs and enjoying themselves is typically not considered a religious event. I’m … Continue reading

Public prayer: why devil worshipers came up in Supreme Court arguments
The truth of the matter is that prayers of any kind have no place in government; period. However, since this country is going backwards instead of forwards, because everyone is afraid to speak out against religious groups, my guess is … Continue reading
Roman Catholic bishops say religious voices should be heard in public debate
I wholeheartedly agree with Roman Catholic bishops, religious voices do have a right to be heard in public debates. There’s only one caveat to this: if religious voices are to be heard in public debates, the Catholic Church needs to … Continue reading
What Ireland can teach the U.S. about separating church and state
Religion and government is a bad mix. In fact, it is by far a a worse mix than religion and science because scientific knowledge and the scientific method crush religion’s faith-based assertions. Religion starts out with the “answers” and works … Continue reading

Alabama offer of church attendance or jail draws protest
I recently posted an article on this very subject and at the time called this proposed “program” to be in violation of the Separation between Church and State, and I still maintain this position. Of course, trying to convince the … Continue reading

Jail or church? Some Alabama offenders will get to choose
In my view this is unconstitutional. Once again, there is yet another movement afoot to unite Church and State. And naturally, it is one of the southern (redneck) states, whose people are obsessed with religion, who are promoting it. The … Continue reading

Victor J. Stenger: “Freedom and the Spiritual Life”
I can see few advantages of the so-called spiritual life. Religion may provide comfort, but that comfort comes at the price of freedom. Personally, I would rather be free than a slave to supernatural forces. While there may be dangers … Continue reading
Religion, and controversy, always part of U.S. education
If all of the time and effort spent by religious individuals and institutions to promote their faith would instead go toward the betterment of humanity, instead of the perpetuation of religious dogma and superstition, this world would be an infinitely … Continue reading

Rick Perry’s Controversial Call to Prayer
Rick Perry, you’re a world-class imbecile. You should be embarrassed by your ignorance and stupidity; believing that prayer will help resolve any of the issues that plague this nation. What we need are leaders and a general population of intelligent, … Continue reading

Louisiana House approves Ten Commandments monument at Capitol
Our laws are based on the Ten Commandments; really? Isn’t that a bit of a reach? The religious freaks are ruining this country, and the politicians (many of whom are also religious nuts) dare not go against the flow, as … Continue reading
Federal appeals court opens doors for prayer at Texas graduation
As usual, politicians cave-in to pressure from religious fanatics… That’s one of the reasons this country is rapidly becoming the ‘land of idiots’. These quotes are taken directly from the article below and were made by a high school student: … Continue reading

New York public schools may bar after hours religion
If the ruling becomes binding, and public schools legally bar religious groups from using their facilities, it would definitely be a good thing. It’s about time that the separation of Church and State is respected and enforced in this country. … Continue reading
Texas school district to stop using church for graduation
I wonder what under-handed deals were being made between church and school district officials in order to arrange graduation ceremonies at the church’s venue. More than likely there was a significant amount of money changing hands. TGO Refer to brief … Continue reading
Gingrich urges talk about his personal failings
Instead of moving forward, this country is regressing. When our Founding Fathers built this nation they took great care to separate Church and State. Yet now, some 235 years later, religion plays a major role in politics. One would think … Continue reading

School aims to re-teach civics with focus on faith
Indoctrinating children, and with falsehoods no less. These people ought to be ashamed of themselves. Following are statements from two of our most prominent Founding Fathers: “The United States of America have exhibited, perhaps, the first example of governments erected … Continue reading
