sometimes it goes both ways. I recently had a position to fill, and was calling candidates for the initial screening interview. Leaving an answering message that starts with “Praise the Lord” just isn’t the best idea when you are looking for a job. Even when the person calling you is calling from a faith based company. Of course, along those lines, neither is having a email address of “irish wildfire…”

Be blessed and have a nice life. But leave the morally righteous people alone.

LOL – I love it. Every nasty, hate-filled letter from a religious ignoramus like this ends with some version of “god bless you and have a nice day! ” because they have to prove what GOOD, MORAL people they are, compared to us angry, hedonistic atheists.

Sheesh.

I assume the writer of this article is a Tennessee native. Not to sound stereotypical, but if someone from Tennessee says you are a religious nutcase, then you are.

It is about time someone stood up against those who are anti-Christ

Yeah, it’s about time! That’s never, ever happened before.

What is it about the words “heck of a job” that associates them with utter incompetence?

By the way, the last time I checked, [. . .]

I love this line the most. People think they can use it to justify any claim.

“By the way, the last time I checked, it is possible to square the circle.”

“By the way, the last time I checked, leprechauns exist. You can’t see them because they’re invisible.”

“By the way, the last time I checked, all bachelors are married.”

We need a massive uprising of logic and reason in this world – so massive that I doubt it’s even possible to combat such flagrant ignorance that is seemingly all around us whatever form it takes: fundamentalist christian, muslim, scientologist, whatever. Some days, I admit that I wonder why even bother or dare to dream. The ignorance is pervasive. How did we ever let it get this bad? Then I realize that its thinking exactly like that which is precisely why it got this bad. And so, I get up to fight th good fight another day, battling ignorance on all fronts.

Religion truly poisons everything.

Oh. My. Once AGAIN I am ashamed that I live in Tennessee.

It was my husband’s choice, not mine. I’d like to live in Vermont.

I’m an atheist. He’s a retired United Methodist minister.

Everybody here reveres him because he’s a Man Of God.

I, of course, am a closet atheist.

She even wondered whether the ordinance would protect public school employees who practice bestiality.

Yes, it has long been known that Nashville public schools are a hotbed of duckfucker activities. God save our innocent children! (all three of ‘em)

Well, the old saying that every country has the government it deserves applies to cities too, so if the good people of Nashville want this protector of Puritan propriety running their schools then they have it all coming.
