Humanism, empathy, experiences, science, morality and philosophy have inspired a great deal. So has critical thinking.
Religion is just superstition.

All of what you cite existed for thousands of years under religion, millennia before 19th century atheism.

Atheism can't explain why a single neutrino exists. It doesn't even try to.

So, because you are ignorant of the definition of atheism, it has failed you. Great logic.

Remnants from the Big Bang ... one of my favorite hits.

It sounded better when it was first released.

Thankfully atheism isn't a religion / cult and so doesn't have any cult mandated hypnotic chants associated with it.

Before you attack science, it's a good idea to prove your bullsh*t first.

That's why Halloween is a lot more fun.

Atheism??? Borrrrrrrrring!

And if I do, THEN will you explain the existence of the universe? If you can, why have you been hiding it for so long?

Why don't you at least send a copy of your explanation to Keith Olbermann? That would pump up his ratings.

Not 'under' religion. In spite of it, perhaps.

And as Skeptic points out, atheism is a position, not a religious dogma like Christianity or Islam.

Religion = superstition

Well ... did the banner fly? Seems business as usual in New York ... no vengeful deity action ... no pillars of salt.

Dear God by XTC

Dear God, hope you got the letter, and...
I pray you can make it better down here.
I don't mean a big reduction in the price of beer
But all the people that you made in your image,
see them starving on their feet
'cause they don't get enough to eat from God,
I can't believe in you

Dear God, sorry to disturb you, but...
I feel that I should be heard Loud and clear.
We all need a big reduction in amount of tears
And all the people that you made in your image,
see them fighting in the street
'cause they can't make opinions meet about God,
I can't believe in you

Did you make disease, and the diamond blue?
Did you make Mankind after we made you?
And the devil too!

Dear God, don't know if you noticed, but...
your name is on a lot of quotes in this book,
and us crazy humans wrote it,
you should take a look,
and all the people that you made in your image
still believing that junk is true.
Well I know it ain't, and so do you, dear God,
I can't believe in
I don't believe in

I won't believe in heaven and hell.
No saints, no sinners, no Devil as well.
No pearly gates, no thorny crown.
You're always letting us humans down.
The wars you bring, the babes you drown.
Those lost at sea and never found,
and it's the same the whole world 'round.
The hurt I see helps to compound that
Father, Son and Holy Ghost
is just somebody's unholy hoax,
And if you're up there you'd perceive
that my heart's here upon my sleeve.
If there's one thing I don't believe in

It's you...
...Dear God.

Dear God.

I'm not afraid of things that aren't real, so do your worst.

With love,

Someone smarter than your followers and you put together.

Awwwwww, BJ, how nice!!!

Does it have a tune so it can be sung on Christmas Eve?

On Christmas Eve, do you fire a shotgun up the chimney and tell the kids, "The fat bastard might be stuck in there. Call the chimney cleaner if he starts to rot."
