The Pledge of Allegiance?! PFFT!!!

"Do not ask what your country can do for you, but instead rather ask what you can do for your country..." Everytime I type that straight out of fallible memory, I get all teared up. Granted, I haven't done much (if anything at all) for the sake of America, but I am a true-blooded patriot. Honest. You put everything else aside about me, you'll see that I care about America and I love her dearly. I am good person/philanthropist. You don't need to donate to charities to practice philanthropy. My type of philanthropy is the exposing of stupid religous beliefs and refuting them once and for all. The internet is a good medium for permanently disposing of religion because someone out there is going to read what I say in due time, and they'll see that religion is nothing but a bunch of LIES.

Speaking of religion, that brings up an interesting point I'd like to make. Know about the Pledge of Allegiance? It needs serious revising. Honestly, I don't know what kind of piece-of-crap writing we are accepting these days, but the current Pledge of Allegiance is just horrible. To demonstrate my patriotism, I will refuse to recite the pledge (or put my right hand over my heart, or stand up, for that matter) under any given circumstances.

It's not because I have any sort of angst against the United States. It's because there is a little tidbit me and an increasing number of people are rather pissed off about: the "under God" clause. I don't have time to be screwing around trying to appease the majority of this nation while we rationalists stand by and watch the country turn into feces. All of the Hindus, Christians, Muslims, and Jews (the most annoying of them all) need to understand that America was not founded just for them, and that we are all together small parts in the large melting pot of democracy. Seriously, won't they ever grow up? I mean, where is our representation? WE WANT SOME REPRESENTATION TOO! Why do religious people get to hog the pledge? That's not fair, dammit!

So, us "internet atheists" will continually push for the secularization of Church and State by getting "God" removed both from the pledge and the Constitution, and whatever legal document under the banner of the U.S. where the word becomes intergral with legislative vocabulary. Atheists have beliefs, too, and we want these beliefs to be included in our national anthems, our country's pledge, and our nation's consitution, OR ELSE!

"How could atheism possibly be included in the pledge of allegiance?", you ask? Simple. You see....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................



Alright, I don't have an answer to that one. It's just easier for us to argue that the word "God" in any national oath or creed is simply contradictive of human rights. So let that be an answer to your hypothetically bogus question, you idiot. Sheesh.

Political Fiasco!

I'm not very politically literate so I thought I would just post a couple of political images that have absolutely no significant meaning behind them. Enjoy:




















There's this too:




















For some reason which I can't put my thumb on, these images have something to do with the tax differences between Obama and McCain (???).
