The Freethinker : Oh No! Not another damn Mary image!

Oh yes... God is all powerful and eternally wondrous. But hey, rather than save humanity from the agony of illness or poverty, he'd rather embed his face on a slice of toast or a rock. What a god!

The Freethinker : More hogwash on swine flu

Pigs are actually really smart creatures. Smarter than most Muslims.

The Freethinker : Religious zealots hog the headlines as swine flu spreads

It's terrible that they are slaughtering those poor pigs in Egypt. Funny how they didn't do it to the birds when Bird Flu was in fashion. Bloody thing isn't even spread through eating pork, it passes from person to person, the whole thing is just an excuse to get one up on the Coptic Christians there in Egypt, as it will only be them that breed the pigs. As for changing the name, I urge people to continue calling it Swine Flu at all costs.

The Freethinker : Outrage over Catholic plans to built a \'mini-Vatican\' in Madrid

Yes, that's precisely why I put that question. Your comment was quite right in that I assumed most people had previously held religious beliefs and left them. I have since re-phrased a couple of the questions to include those who have always been Atheists and have also added the option of stating whether or not you were born into the religion or whether you chose it later in life. I also edited it to state at the top of the page entitled "your previous religion", that those who have always been non-religious may skip ahead. Thanks for your participation! :)

HI, I'm the creator of the survey. I am an Atheist... I kind of did worry that people would think it was going to be used by Christians for their own propaganda. Thanks for taking it :)

http://www.smart-survey.co.uk/v.asp?i=11814vqath This questionnaire has been designed to gather information about those who consider themselves to be Atheists. An Atheist is defined as someone who does not believe in any god, deity or Supreme Being. Atheists are often under-represented in society, and the concept of Atheism is often misunderstood. If you are an atheist, please take the time to answer the following questions as honestly as possible. You do NOT have to give out your name or any other personal details if you feel that this would be a threat to your safety. No information in this form will be used for any other purpose other than to gather statistics. Please take the time to fill in this questionnaire and encourage others to do so! http://www.smart-survey.co.uk/v.asp?i=11814vqath
