God Is Imaginary

The way to change the world is to change people's minds.

As more and more people openly discuss the fact that "God" and "Allah" are completely imaginary, the world becomes a better place.

The people who believe in "religion" look sillier and sillier.

Eventually, religion becomes a fringe activity that is meaningless.

Mr. Bush recently came out on the side of ATT, Verizon, etc. He wants them to have even more money and for us to have even less freedom. Authoritarian dominators hate it when people have any kind of freedom. They want to be able to make everyone walk in goose step [oops, lockstep...]
