3. No. We have just as much as anyone else.
We just disagree with the religious folks on what we all have. It remains to be seen which group is right. :P

5. You know why the atheists don't pay taxes?
Because they're a non-prophet organization.



You might as well laugh now, 'cause I ain't gettin' any funnier tonight!

31. Yep. Many is the Sunday morning I leisurely sip coffee and think:
"I can't believe millions people are rushing off to sit in some musty pew and listen to a bunch of made-up crapola this fine morning."

20. Nothing but
net (the net being open and highly scrutinized morals...it's sort of like being an open-source moral kernel...everyone gets to look at your morals, question and investigate how well it is implemented and how it works and contribute methods of making it better)

22. If you really believe that...
I'm guessing you're just another sucker for every con man with crazy story and a collection plate.

Cheers.

23. We have the Earth.
And all the love that we can create on it. But in the end, it's true, we'll lose it all. Because death is the ultimate reality. All we can do is try to spread our finite light while we still can. But why did you post this, really?

25. I got plenty of nothing
And nothing's plenty for me
I got no car - got no house
I got no misery

Folks with plenty of plenty
They've got a lock on the door
Afraid somebody's gonna rob 'em
While there out making more - what for

I got no lock on the door - that's no way to be
They can steal the rug from the floor - that's OK with me
'cause the things that I prize - like the stars in the skies - are all free

I got plenty of nothing
And nothing's plenty for me
I got my gal - got my song
I got sunshine the whole day long

- got my gal - got my love - got my song

Also from some particular types of fear. It's pretty nice. :)

30. Unless you count
reason
science
free thought
and a moral code based more on doing well by your fellow man than on not pissing off an invisible deity.
