Freedom of religion (or lack).....For Dawkins?
I was reading along minding my own business when I happened on an article that revealed that a Dawkins event was canceled at the Wyndgate (holy) golf club due to the owner taking exception to Mr. Dawkins. Seems that he was watching (of all things) FOX News(?) and saw Mr. Dawkins spouting controversial rational thought sort of stuff and so he made the executive decision as owner to cancel the scheduled event. I ran off a quick missive to the powers that be thanking them for saving the game (and more than a few souls I’m sure). I’m a little angry at this action and was wondering if anyone else found this offensive and perhaps found it to be a violation of his rights. It is surely a form of religious prejudice however how much protection does that afford those who shun religion. Finally I was wondering if there have been any further developments in this matter......that someone may be aware of.
If you care to here is the contact info for Wyndgate (that’s with a Y so much more distinguished) send 'em a missive of your own let 'em know what you think....or not lol

Anyway bigger things afoot for sure this just got my attention and I was wondering…..
Peace

"Science... I don't get it. Jk, ; )"
fkn scumbags are so hard up for slaves that don't think they'll do anything.. yet are not able to do all they want until the Constitution is canceled on their/ and China's behalf. Serious. Even Jeb Bush was sucking totalitarian asian dick on CNN tonight; scumbags. Go away and live where you can suck it! -

Well, I like the fact that CFI (Center For Inquiry) is going to pursue legal remedies.

Hey thanks for the info. It seems that they may have recourse though.....they may claim potential disruption and if i read the CFI response that may be the direction they (Wyndgate) may take. It is plain to those of us who have felt this sort of discrimination that the decision was based on his objection to religion. still in fairness that may well be felt as a source of potential for disruption etc. for some golfers get violent in the face of the truth.

Pope's 'exorcism' caught on film video

There is a video of the Pope's 'exorcism' caught on film. The man isn't demon possessed, there are likely no 'real' demons. He's just delusional and doesn't want to accept personal responsiblity for his own behavior for his own dysfunctional life.

Do you support 'traditional' marriage, vot now ad

There is an ad that reads ' Do you support 'traditional' marriage? Vote Now"! .
No, I don't support 'traditional' marriage because there is no such thing. I support heterosexual and same-sex couples marry each other legally , yes. 'Traditional' marriage promoters largely do not believe that heterosexual women are co-equal to their husbands. Their only purpose in 'traditional' marriage is to sexually satisfy their husbands if they can and raise children and do all…

My first funeral as an atheist

I posted the bulk of this on another thread, but wanted to add some context separately.
I finally confronted my faith and embraced the fact of my atheism late last August, 2012. Days after I revealed my "epiphany" to a few friends who knew me from another message board, my sister died from Lou Gehrig's Disease (which pissed her off because she hated catching a disease from someone she never f---ed).
THAT was my sister, understand? She was a beautiful, life-loving, potty-mouthed…
