American’s increasing acceptance of religious diversity doesn’t extend to those who don’t believe in a god, according to a national survey by researchers in the University of Minnesota’s department of sociology.
From a telephone sampling of more than 2,000 households, university researchers found that Americans rate atheists below Muslims, recent immigrants, gays and lesbians and other minority groups in “sharing their vision of American society.” Atheists are also the minority group most Americans are least willing to allow their children to marry.
[Sure, that makes sense. Atheists have done nothing to improve their reputation as immoral and evil. Whether it be atheists from the USA shooting doctors or atheists from the Middle East flying airplanes into the World Trade Center, everybody knows atheists are out to destroy us all. Tens of thousands of children, mainly young boys, were molested by atheists and the crimes were hidden by an atheist leader in Italy. But no further proof is needed than to note that prisons in the USA are full beyond capacity with atheists. Clearly the United States needs to get rid of atheists and atheism, the sooner the better.]
"America was never innocent. We popped our cherry on the boat over and looked back with no regrets. You can't ascribe our fall from grace to any single event or set of circumstances. You can't lose what you lacked at conception.
"Mass-market nostalgia gets you hopped up for a past that never existed. Hagiography sanctifies shuck-and-jive politicians and reinvents their expedient gestures as moments of great moral weight. Our continuing narrative line is blurred past truth and hindsight. Only a reckless verisimilitude can set that line straight."
