    Wasn’t there some survey fairly recently that said parents would be more comfortable marrying their child to a terrorist than to an atheist? Because I think this post places atheists squarely between terrorists and epidemics.

    I wonder if they are still working on that vaccine to prevent atheism.

    The article is quite positive and friendly towards atheists which is always great to see in the mainstream media.

    What if stem cells were alleged to cure gayness or atheism? What would George Bush do?

    Awesome! We’re more popular than swine flu! That’s as sweeeeet as being prettier than Susan Boyle.

    “Popular” in this context actually means that atheists are perceived as a greater threat than swine flu.
