Why the Burden of Proof is on the Atheist

I think the reason I like the atheism thing is that I'm right about it, and I like being right. That's a potentially critical personality flaw.

It does make me laugh that there is so much energy and money devoted to organized worship with no basis in reality, but reading articles like the above are starting to make me really sad. There is really no end in sight to this madness. If the religious are a lost cause and they keep making more of themselves, it will never stop, and the world is doomed to an endless, unwinnable argument, and for what? So people can feel special. So that their needs for the world around them can be met.

So now, my final announcement on the subject. There's no such thing as god and I'm tired of going on about it. Just stop using god already for everything like thanking and blaming and war and morality and law. God doesn't matter because only man's interpretation of god is real, and the world, under the influence of religious fanaticism, is in a fine mess. Unchanged, it's all over. The good guys lost. I started this thinking maybe there was a way out of it. I was wrong. I give up.
