This blog is intended for individuals or groups to post their thoughts, arguments and ideas regarding Atheism. Sane, non-ranting religious people welcome. Respect is mandatory!
Specifically, why does religion still exist in the face of science and human experience in general? Will religion ever cease to exist or play any central role in human culture? Etc...

Albert Einstein
"A man's ethical behavior should be based effectually on sympathy, education, and social ties; no religious basis is necessary. Man would indeed be in a poor way if he had to be restrained by fear of punishment and hope of reward after death"
"I have repeatedly said that in my opinion the idea of a personal God is a childlike one. You may call me an agnostic, but I do not share the crusading spirit of the professional atheist whose fervor is mostly due to a painful act of liberation from the fetters of religious indoctrination received in youth."
I am a proud Atheist. Religion is obsolete and should vanish from all cultures. Religion serves no purpose other than personify cruelty, racism, violence, genocide and all major atrocities. Religion should just die.

that is a good one
Man was in a "poor way" up until recent times; life sucked hard. It was probably nice to look forward to an end to the suffering.
