I’m an Atheist. I don’t hate God—I simply don’t believe in one. Yet I care deeply: for people, animals, the planet. I regularly give to charity, cherish life, & find purpose in creating my own path. Morality doesn’t require Faith—it just requires independent thought & a…
The word of god ‘The holy word of God is on everyone's lips...but...we see everyone presenting their own versions of God's word, with the sole purpose of using religion as a pretext for making others think as they do.’ — B. Spinoza Written over 300 years ago. Still true today!
🔹 ‘Atheism’ is simply the absence of belief in deities 🔸 ‘Secularism’ refers to separation of Church and State Atheism has no doctrines, commands, or political agenda. Blaming Atheists for secular authoritarian regimes & wars is both misleading & intellectually dishonest!

Human exceptionalism is a silent bias, so deeply ingrained in us that most don’t even see it. It justifies exploitation, disconnects us from nature, and distorts morality. It’s time we name it, question it, & unlearn it, before it destroys us. Religion sadly enhances this bias!

Cults - religions When we trade thought for blind loyalty, we serve the loudest voice, not the wisest truth! As America currently demonstrates, society suffers when cults rise, but it blooms when conscience dares to speak. Dare to think for yourself. Be your own hero!
Genocide in GAZA The term “genocide” should never be used lightly. But refusing to use it when there’s deliberate mass killing, starvation, displacement, & racist incitement, is a far greater moral failure!

Whilst still more people have died for flags & tyrants than in religious wars, that doesn’t let religion off the hook. Religion’s claim to moral superiority makes its bloodshed even more damning. Killing ‘in the name of goodness’ is their ultimate betrayal of moral superiority!

GAZA - ISRAEL - Jews The global blowback of Netanyahu’s genocide risks spreading far beyond the battlefield. Jews must show the world that Judaism is not Zionist extremism, and that Jewish values include justice, mercy, and the sanctity of life. Silence fuels anti-semitism.
Is Islam a threat to Western values? If we want a healthy, free, and genuinely inclusive society, then we have to ensure that no ideology, religious or secular, has the right to undermine liberty, equality, or human dignity. (I know, Christianity is deserving of criticism too.)

📘 Word of the Day: Specious Meaning: Superficially plausible, but actually wrong or misleading.

Being a billionaire and/or a president in America comes with a license to lie, plunder and rape with impunity!
Belief in God isn’t proof of God. It’s proof that proof is missing!

Apologists have figured out that the easiest way to make their arguments irrefutable is to make them incoherent.
‘divine’ resurrections Many gods “resurrected” before Jesus: Osiris, Tammuz, Dionysus, Adonis … These myths echo cycles of death & renewal, harvest & hope. Sadly today Jesus’ alleged resurrection is overwhelmingly a propaganda prop to keep the credulous hooked on religion.
If we share our dreams and fantasies on social media, we shouldn’t just expect praise, but be prepared for criticism—maybe even disillusionment. If we’re not ready for that, it’s wiser to keep them to ourselves.
