So I want to talk about:

1. Why atheists are angry;

2. Why our anger is valid, valuable, and necessary;

And 3. Why it's completely fucked-up to try to take our anger away from us.

So let's start with why we're angry. Or rather -- because this is my blog and I don't presume to speak for all atheists -- why I'm angry.

Atheists and Anger

A wonderful passionate angry atheist rant.

I might be bored by this whole evolution vs design cold war going on in the promised land, but bored doesn't mean I'm not getting annoyed as well.

washingtonpost.com runs an evolution theory story. Although the research described makes a good point for evolution versus intelligent design, why should we care so much about it. Why these really heated debates?

In my opinion, the christian crowd should calm down. Nobody wants to stop them believing in God. Do it. Most atheists, humanists, and other assorted non-believers I know are happy with anyone having their personal beliefs, organised or otherwise. Just don't try to push them down our throats. Don't try to ban or censor thoughs different from yours. Get a life. Enjoy living, having a family or whatever else you like to do in life. Don't psyche yourselves up or you will really prove The Times true.

It is another matter, if you genuinely debate science, then really use arguments, and not statements. Is there a point in debating religion. Religion is about belief. The unconditional belief in the exhistence of God, not the possibility of exhistance. That's why I'm an atheist, I suppose. I don't believe in the mighty, nor have any need to. I don't believe in science either. I either check, or simply take the word for it of people whose opinion I trust, scientific theories.

"God doesn't play dice" Yet the quantum theory still stands. And the big E was right.
