Tripoli Day is June 10th! Help celebrate the separation of church and state by changing your online status on Facebook, MySpace, and other sites to the following for the entire day of June 10th:
[Your name here] asks, "Did you know on June 10th 1797, President John Adams signed the Treaty of Tripoli, which states that "the Government of the United States of America is not in any sense founded on the Christian religion?"
Please help make this a national holiday to remember by spreading this idea around to all your friends! Cheers!
Thanks for the add PZ, you're the man. I'm still plugging away on King Lear over at The Primate Diaries. Feel free to check up on my progress sometime or subscribe in a reader.
Since Billboards have been used for advertising, Christian organizations and Churches have used them to advertise God (as if a creator of the universe would need advertising). Over the last few years, atheist groups have started to put up some billboards of our own. Despite trying our best to be as non-threatening as possible, atheist billboards seem to always cause controversy.
I need your help. I am compiling photos of the worst Christian billboards you can find. So if you are in a more religiously brainwashed area of the country or the world and you see a Christian billboard, snap a photo and e-mail it to me at DangerousTalk@gmail.com. Let me know where this billboard was found (city and state), so next time one of our billboards is challenged by Bill O’Reily or Father Morris, we will be able to give them a little comparison… not that it will matter to them. But it will matter to the general public who we are trying to reach.
I don't even know how you do it, PZ. Dealing with scum and human garbage day in and day out. You seem to have limitless patience, exposing theistic lies and thuggery again and again.
I don't have to deal with it on that level, but even I'm weary and exhausted by the whole thing. It's really easy to lose faith in humanity, in general and just despair.
DangerousTalk. net has been re-launched and now features a Daily Blog usually dealing with atheism. Please check it out, comment, discuss, and spread the word.
Hey PZ, this is the best End-of-the-year gift!! Go get them Tiger!!! Yehaaaaaa, I've got PZ on my "Friends"-list!! Keep on kicking "their" butts. And don't let them grind you down.............
Thank you so much for the add! I've been saying "Tyrannosaurus" ever since I was 2 years old, and drew dinosaurs all over the Sunday School activity sheets until my parents wised up and got me the hell out of church! Keep up the good fight, PZ, and I will keep reading Pharyngula!
Thanks for everything, PZ. Your work, and that of a few others in the community, has been vital to our progress. You make it easier by providing the support, foundation, backing, and intelligence we need to keep on going against the giants we're fighting. Keep it up for everyone's sake.
