Beautiful. There was a girl I used to do maths assignments with called Alethea. I wonder if her parents were atheists …

The comeback is that it isn’t atheism (an atheistic deity??), it’s Alethianism. Which just goes to show that atheism ceases to be atheism when you try and make it into a religion.

Atheism is a religion the way silence is a noise or good health is a disease.

Good argument but fundies will see it as part of the “atheism is a religion” meme and Reality knows, I’m sick of that.

The great thing about having Reality as your God is that it really doesn’t care much one way or another how much or how little of it you worship, so you’re perfectly free to single out just those bits you do like, or even to skip worship altogether.

I think all those other gods must suffer from terrible self-esteem problems, the way they seem to crave validation and affirmation from their followers.

I think the thing with goddesses and gods is that we are meant to worship the buggers. Frankly, I’d rather not worship Reality, it’s too yukky. If I were to worship it would have to be something uplifting —couldn’t you have opted for Sex as divinity, or Rum, or even potato chips?
