Atheism is a Religion

  A religion is a set of stories, symbols, beliefs and practices that give meaning to the practitioner's experiences of life. It may be expressed through prayer, ritual, meditation, music and art, among other things. It may focus on specific supernatural, metaphysical, and moral claims about reality (the cosmos, and human nature) which may yield a set of religious laws, ethics, and a particular lifestyle. Religion also encompasses ancestral or cultural traditions, writings, history, and mythology, as well as personal faith and religious experience.

 Does anyone else see what this means? It means that if you belong to a group with a common belief or practices, guess what Charlie you’re in a religion. Now the first thing written, the number one Amendment our brilliant founders wanted to protect themselves from, their children and us was the freedom of speech, choice, and religion. Also that Congress shall pass no law for or against any religious belief. That’s not word for word what it says but that’s what the damn thing means most of the shitheads in this country wouldn’t understand this if I wrote it word for word. With that said, filing a lawsuit against a prayer being held at the Presidential Inauguration breaks both sides of the Constitution.

 Look I don’t believe in an invisible man or woman in the sky looking over us like some crazy asshole with an ant farm and a check list. I am though a fan of the United States of America’s Bill of Rights which clearly states you have the right to believe in anything you want as long as it doesn’t infringe or interfere with anyone else’s freedoms. In my world God, Santa Clause and the Tooth Fairy are all waiting in the green room, but I’m not about to be a dickhead and go into a 2nd grade classroom with proof that Santa isn’t real. Nor would I join a “group” that wishes to enforce their disbeliefs on everyone.

 Atheism is a religion and every time these groups pressure legislators to pass laws or files law suits condemning the free practice of religion it’s not only bullshit it is breaking the Constitution. Let me reiterate the President of the United States of America is holding a prayer at his inauguration and an anti- religious group is filing a lawsuit against it. I wonder if he was Jewish or Muslim if that same lawsuit would be filed, I think not.

 Belonging to a group that believes in no God is the same as belonging to a group that does. It also entitles you to the same rights and restriction as all the other silly religious groups, meaning you can’t force someone to believe what you believe and you have zero right to stop anyone from expressing what they believe. In my opinion Atheist are just as annoying as bible thumping assholes knocking on my door at 9am Saturday morning.

 I live in a great country that allows anyone to say and believe in anything, also I have the right to tell you to fuck-off, I’m not interested, and thanks for asking. If you don’t like something tuff, there are lots of things I don’t like but understand they are constitutional rights and there is nothing I can do about them, like; giving some prick on death row the right to appeal for the next twenty years, giving child molesters a second chance or allowing morons to seu other people for their own stupidity. These things I realize are idiotic but are part of our great and fucked up legal system. In order for me to have the right to express how I feel I have to deal with shit I don’t like. Welcome to America the land of compromise.

 Compromise, that about sums up America, if you don’t like something bitch your heart’s content, but someone has the right to do what you don’t like just as much as you have the right to do or say the opposite. The next time you wish the government would step in and silence something you hate to hear, remember if the government could silence them they can silence you.

 What I’m saying is people have the right to piss you off just as you have the right to piss them off. My complaint here is not silencing someone it is that we are allowing religion to manipulate our laws by being manipulated by groups that are incognito. Until you people who quietly whine about how fucked up things are do something, you’re going to be walked on until you wake up one day in a country you don’t recognize.

 We have to stop electing assholes who will cave at any threat in which they won’t be reelected; serving your community means to serve, not to campaign the entire time you hold the position. If this lawsuit makes it to any court or if my new buddy Obama caves to these demands it means the end of America.

 One last note to end with; I find it ironic that while the rest of the world is being torn apart by retarded religious assholes our own country “the land of the free” is being un-united because of anti-religion. I what to enjoy my rights, not have to fight for them. 

 Oh and by the way I think electing Barrack Obama is the biggest mistake this country has made since 1920. I am not defending the idiot’s decision to hold what ever prayer he wants to hold, I’m defending the soon to be extinct Bill of Rights.
