		<description>I submit that there is no generic evil. It is rather the resulting judgement of an observer.
One who, through the application of scientific thought or superstition, has labeled the act  or condition damaging or counter productive to his own chosen belief system. An exception to this is the resulting judgement made from a purely scientific thought process and based on scientific axiom.
Obviously an act or condition can be adjudged "evil" so long as no absolute evil is implied. 
The same holds true of absolute good. The two should only be used to describe what is more or less except able in the observers view of the world.
Within  the dualistic dynamics of religion  we find a need for these fictitious  absolutes.

In order to address the issue of "god or not" no god theory has ever been useful in predicting what we are learning through scientific investigation. Nor has any god theory brought man kind into intellectual or social maturation. Men created religions and men brought to religion the good the bad and the ugly.

In summary there is no need for a god theory and a great need for lucid thought.

		<description>You know what we need ?   A catchy slogan for Atheism.  We need a better frame, something more marketable than  "Fuck you and your Jesus fish!"  Actually that's just more of a personal motto.  

Somthing like:

Atheism:  Lose the Guilt.
Atheism:  The Dark ages are over
Atheism will set you free
Lose your shackles! Become an Atheist
Id rather laugh with the Sinners than cry with the Saints: Atheism

Gee this is kinda fun.  We need uplifting ones, not just.  God Sucks.  Although that does have a ring to it.

Any ideas?</description>

		<description>Damn...I'm very interested in hosting, but my blog is pretty new.

Oh well, during the next two months I'll just get to know everybody. Then, by the time I host, I'll be an old hand.  :)</description>
