It’s been awhile but it’s worth noting that the citizens of Washington prevailed in eliminating tobacco smoke from public buildings and private restaurants and bars. It’s also worth note that even smoky old Europe is coming around. This week, France begins a yearlong scaling down of public smoking. Yay!

I have arrived at this conclusion: Atheists are, by definition, better than the most pious and sacrosanct religious believer. Q.E.D…..

There is a sense, in many religious communities, that we atheists are somehow ‘evil’ or ‘immoral’. My experience has shown this to not be the case – at all. Sadly, many people, when they hear the term, “atheist”, automatically assume that atheists are Communists or Nazis. Generally, atheist live with most of the values of their Christian neighbors, only without the hypocrisy. I like to think I am already a “better atheist”. Therefore, I feel I have reached this goal.
