Just a little update for everyone…
CONTEST NEWS:
I have simutaneously launched a fun slogan contest and a more serious logo design contest with a $100 prize. It should be fun so please head on over if you’re creative and wish to help out :)
ADVERTISING NEWS:
Some of you may have noticed that I have sold my first spot of advertising on the upper-left column to Infidelic Rational Radio. It’s a great site that I’ve frequented for about a year now. They do an outstanding job and I appreciate them supporting Religious Freaks so please support them.
MISCELLANEOUS NEWS:
I have begun work on my first major project for the website. The purpose of this project will be to challenge people of all faiths (including Atheists) to question their own beliefs in hopes of promoting a better understanding and respect of one’s faith. The details will follow once I iron them out. To all those who have helped thus far, thanks!
WRITING OPPORTUNITY:
Occasionally I receive messages from people who are upset with me for what I write since it tends to be rather one-sided. If you are interested in writing about your chosen faith in a different light, then please contact me. I encourage anyone, whether a Christian, Muslim, Jew, or whatever, to step up. If you have something interesting to offer (commentary, story, etc…) I will gladly offer the front page to you. Just contact me ahead of time to agree on a topic.
LAST BIT
I just want to thank everyone who has contributed to the site in one way or another. It’s great to see people from all backgrounds and faiths coexist here under one roof without killing each other or me for that matter :)

Great site, keep up the good work.
I’ve been linking too, and sending people here for a long time.

Atheism is not a faith. And I don’t know how many atheists were born into it, but I don’t see the necessity of giving it a second thought. (Necessity in this case meaning: a face in the sky, a booming voice, etc.)

Atheism is a faith. It requires faith to believe in a god without proof, but conversely, the absence of evidence is not evidence of absence. You can’t prove that there is no god, so in order to believe that there is no god, an atheist must have faith.

All religions has rituals. I don’t think Atheism has any.

Absence of evidence actually is evidence of absence. (Did you even think about that statement before you started parroting it?) If it weren’t, your failure to accept the existence of invisible gremlins, pink unicorns, and flying spaghetti monsters is great act of faith.
If atheism is a religion then not stamp collecting is a hobby.

I myself am against any organized religion but I’m not an atheist. A brief study of the history of all major religions, possibly with the exception of Buddhism, will show that it is a political tool used to control the masses.
But I also reject the strictly materialist view that the universe is simply dead electrons screaming through an empty void. I find the universe full of great wonders, magic(of the Arthur C. Clark definition) and purpose. What this purpose is I don’t understand anymore than a bacterium in my belly understands the purpose of me.
