I am an angry atheist. It makes me angry that millions of American Christians despise me solely because I do not share their god belief. Bigotry and hatred infuriate me. It makes me angry that believing something without evidence is considered stupid unless the something involves religion at which point such belief becomes virtuous. Transparent hypocrisy of this sort irritates me. It makes me angry to see religious people standing in the way of human progress by preventing stem cell research, depriving our children of sound science education, and and the like. Placing one's religious beliefs or institutions above basic human welfare enrages me. It makes me angry to see American Christians demonize the secular principles on which our country was founded in service to a destructive worldview. This sort of willful distortion of reality makes my blood boil.February 5, 2010
