We were all born atheist. This is an atheist nation. Deal with it.<br /> <br /> Theism is so costly and wasteful. To promote, in a world of finite resources, such a costly and wasteful institution as religion is not in the interest of humanity. A lie is an expensive thing to maintain and everyday one can see the enormous resources devoted to maintaining the lies of theists. Our planet demands and end to theism.<br /> <br /> The poor theists need another federal resolution to bolster there lack of faith in their faith. We were all born atheist. This is an atheist nation.
