Understand Reality Through Science

Human knowledge has progressed exponentially since the dawn of modern science. It is no longer reasonable to accept claims without sufficient objective evidence. The harm from religion, alternatives to medicine, conservatism, and all other false beliefs will be exposed on this blog by reporting the findings of science. This blog will also reinforce what should be the basics of education: History, Civics, Financial Literacy, Media Literacy, and Critical/Science Based Thinking.

Atheists In Foxholes

I posted the following image on my Facebook page and received a comment on it from an evangelical Christian. Below the image is the comment, and my response:

Commenter: "Is that what Mao, Stalin, and their compatriots thought? I wish... "

Me: "You are conflating the evils of the quasi-religious, authoritarian, dogmatic and cruel leadership seen in all dictatorships with atheism. Show me one example of atheists in a first world, democratic republic who are more evil than the theists."
