I understand the role that coming out has played in obtaining civil rights for members of the LGBT community, but I don’t understand people’s fascination with sexual behavior of others. I look forward to the day where people are disinterested in other people’s sexual preferences because it’s not controversial.

Heh. Not that kind of out! And not really any kind of out; it was a joke. I’ve never been a very closeted atheist…

I thought I’d seen some telltale signs over the last few years, but my natural reticence kept me from mentioning them.

Goodness Gracious – so you’ve finally told the world you’re an atheist! As Americans say: Who Knew? Crikey, how long do you reckon it’ll be, before you tell the whole truth of it, that you are in fact…a gnu?

The funny thing here is that when I view to this post, there is a scientology ad on the side saying, “Find OUT For Yourself.”

Hm. What was that thing about extraordinary claims requiring extraordinary evidence? What sort of evidence should a claim like this require?
Is this a prototype for an actual billboard?

I am shocked, shocked, to find you allow atheists to congregate in the place!
I just designed my own banner and joined the frff. I used a Bible quote, Matthew 6:5:
“And when you pray, do not be like the hypocrites, for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on the street corners to be seen by others.”
I wich Christians would abide by this advice.
