Athiest Views Vol 1

    Atheist. When many people hear that word leave somebody’s lips they get a picture in their head that this person is a bad person, a person with no conscience or moral standing; a person who walks through life and could not care about others or the world. Just because people do not praise a mystical space god and his practices does not make a person a bad human being. It makes them sensible and has a more open outlook on life.
    The Earth is populated by approximately 2.1 billion Christians (33% of pop.), 1.5 billion Muslims (21% of pop.), 1.1 billion Secular/ Theists/ Agnostics/ Atheists (16% of pop.), and the list goes on from there. Approximately 11% of the population is Atheist and that number is on the rise. That’s about 121 million people which is about half of the population of Buddhists. That is a fair amount of people, but they are shunned from society, especially politics.
    There has been a big uproar, and there still is, about President Obama’s religion. Many people believe him when he says he is a Christian, but others doubt him and think he is a Muslim, which is not a bad thing at all (they are both equally bad). There are pictures of him in traditional Islamic garb and what looks like to be practicing Islam. The people who care about what religion he practices are very prejudice and full of hate. Mostly they are conservatives and are part of the “Birthers” (people who believe Obama was not born in the US and cannot be a president). But I digress, and move back to my point that most religions, the “big three” (Christianity, which includes Roman Catholicism and many other branches of Christianity, Islam, and Judaism) are so completely fucked that they have tried to destroy the fiber of originality and freedom, so now they need to turn in to “super religions” to survive. They try to gather as many adherents as they can, go to other countries, and sometimes forcibly convert people to their religion. Christians build these “stadiums” that house hundreds, even thousands of people to hold their services.
    “We need to stop, we need to evolve, we need to break the oppression and move on.”
