We Think Of Our Eyes

I Am An Atheist. There, I Said It. Are You Happy, All You Atheists Out There Who Have Remonstrated With Me For Adopting The Agnostic Moniker? If "atheist" Means Someone Who Does Not Believe In God, Then An Atheist Is What I Am. But I Detest All Such Labels. Call Me What You Like - Humanist, Secular Humanist, Agnostic, Nonbeliever, Nontheist, Freethinker, Heretic, Or Even Bright. I Prefer Skeptic.

Science Is The Best Tool Ever Devised For Understanding How The World Works.

As Karl Marx Once Noted: 'hegel Remarks Somewhere That All Great, World-historical Facts And Personages Occur, As It Were, Twice. He Forgot To Add: The First Time As Tragedy, The Second As Farce.' William Jennings Bryan And The Scopes Trial Was A Tragedy. The Creationists And Intelligent Design Theorists Are A Farce.

It Is Sad That While Science Moves Ahead In Exciting New Areas Of Research, Fine-tuning Our Knowledge Of How Life Originated And Evolved, Creationists Remain Mired In Medieval Debates About Angels On The Head Of A Pin And Animals In The Belly Of An Ark.

People Who Espouse Intelligent Design Believe Nature Is So Complex As To Require An Intelligent Designer-god. Similarly, Liberals Believe The Economy Is So Complex As To Require An Intelligent Designer-government.
