I just sent a letter to my local paper. I don’t often read it because it’s basically just advertising and pictures of school kids, but I was looking through it this week and noticed there seems to be a column dedicated to religion/church/christianity. I will have to keep checking it to keep tabs on the kind of crap they publish. Part of the column was making fun of the “excuses” people use for not attending church. Maybe they just have better things to do than waste their time listening to fairy tales on Sunday morning! Instead of making excuses (why should anyone need an excuse not to attend church anyway?), more people should be proud to say that they simply don’t share such delusional beliefs.
I was inspired to add this goal after realising the negative impacts of religion on humanity. I was wondering why so many people realise that religion doesn’t make sense, and yet still call themselves christian/muslim etc. I want to show people that atheism/secular humanism can enrich the short time we have on Earth much more than blind faith in any religion ever could.
