Out From the Closet of Belief: Part Ii

oh but how those goddamned Atheists would not stop yammering away--- with their Darwin & their Evolution & their want to live in the reality of a world in which human beings take responsibility for the lives that they lead without pretending as if some deity was watching without pretending as if some deity was going to come & save them--- and over the span of this latent nonbeliever’s life sooner than later, the voice of those who are sick & tired of a world churning & bubbling in a chaos produced by those theists, deists & just plain morons, came to the forefront. with megaphones in hand they march today to the capital voicing their complaints & asserting themselves as a people who will not be ignored, as a people who have been kept silent for way too long, as a people who have come to stand where so many maniacs have stood before pronouncing their myths & then marching off to kill another who doesn’t believe in the myth that they do. today, the masked nonbeliever knows that they are no longer alone, because of people like Richard Dawkins who have stood up against a world that thrives on lunacy, wanting to instead rely on facts, evidence, and the real conclusions drawn from the scientific method & investigative processes--- the masked nonbeliever no longer needs to hide & they get on a bus, or a plane, or they just plain drive to DC today in order to find community with those that have had enough of this bullshit, making that first important public step to be facebooked & tweeted & covered by as many media outlets that are not still bent over the table getting raped by the religious who would love for all of our mouths to still be closed who would love for us all to be burning at the stake as if it was still the middle ages. *if only Christopher Hitchens could still be here to witness it.
