By definition an asanta clausist denies the existence of Santa Claus. To deny the existence of something you must know everything about it, all-knowing. Do you asanta clausists really think you know everything there is to know about Christmas matters? Christmas people on the other hand only need a little bit of proof to know that there is a Santa Claus and that he is active in our lives.

Well done! Halos from the Atheist "Community of Austin Texas". Austin is the most Atheist city of it's size in the USA. Visit our site on the web or google the "atheist experience" videos on google. There are about 200 or more 1/12 hour shows you can see. We put up a new one every week. Search them by date for the latest ones. Thank you for your insightful article! Atheism has nothing to do with humanism, but most humanist seem to be atheist. By the way, Atheism is merely an opinion about religion the same as religion is. We just think the god idea is a bad one and the religious think its is a good one. But since we both have attitudes about religion, shouldn't we both have the same tax exemptions?

Alright KUJT -

Point by Point.

"This should be interesting talks about taking a course in Logic. It appears he should have taken courses in grammar and spelling." Sorry, I didn't know I was being graded. This is a typical response from someone on the internet when they have nothing.

"You'll notice that he doesn't name who these atheist war mongers are. Of course that's because these people weren't atheist." Communists were named, perhaps you should learn to read. Communists in the Soviet Union and China were in fact athiest (it is a tenet of Athiesm).

"They rounded up believers and executed them as a means of controlling others. The fact that they were religious was symbolic. " BS. Do a little research. Read a few books. These were athiests who committed these atrocities. Deal with it.

"I just hate it when people who know nothing of history talk about it it as thought they do." Wow, Funny given that you didn't even know about Stalin and Mao Cse Tung, their beliefs and who they killed. And even if you want to deny that they targeted religious to end those beliefs in their country, there is not denying that athiests, rounded up and killed 150 million people in the last century alone. Oh, and don't talk about a grammar check when you can't even do it yourself.

"Here are the facts at hand. God, by any definition, is a belief. There is no proof of the existence of a god. Believers will say "how else could the universe have been created?" Damned if I know. And that's the point. We don't know. You can believe that it was created by an invisible cloud being. That is your right afforded you by the constitution, which was written by men by the way, but what you cannot do is craft legislation designed to make me believe it or pretend that i believe it to avoid persecution or prosecution. That is not constitutionally allowed and I will fight to my last breathe to keep it from happening." Agreed, and this is not happening. See this is not Communist China.

"Even if this country was built on so called judeo-christian principles, which it most assuredly was not" This is the funniest statement in the post. Judeo-Christian principles introduced the world to caring for others, care of the less fortunate, freedom, not stealing, killing, et al. Certainly, this country was based on those principles. Prior to these Judeo-Christian principles, people were eating each other, there was no "civilization" as we know it. If you believe these words, you are an idiot.

", the constitution protects people that believe in logic and fact from the tyranny of a majority blinded by religious fervor. This column from Linda Staten is courageous, witty, and timely and the citizens owe her a debt of gratitude."

Frankly, you can believe what you want, I don't care, but if you are supposed to be so enlightened at least you should be honest.

Before KUJT or some other enlightened person blows a gasket. I meant to say "Athiesm (it is a tenet of Communism)." in the last post. Perhaps the KC Star should buck up and allow a preview.

Very good article. Please keep up the good work!

Might I add for those who think less of the atheist, I'm a godless American, happily married with two wonderful children, consider taxes my voluntary contribution for a better society, give money to charity, help my neighbors, work the polls, and treat cancer patients. I'm also proud to be a member of a species that has come down from the trees, fought off disease, explored space, and developed laws that apply to all.

Best wishes.

There is ZERO nonpartial evidence of God. You have to be a believer first, and then you see the evidence that support your beliefs.

Evolution is real and it is a fact. There is ZERO peer-reviewed evidence to support intelligent design.

Religious people, the burden of proof is on you, not atheists. You are the one making claims which you cannot support with any evidence. Use your brains not your hearts.
