I didn’t research that statement. But, if that is true, we need a movement. I would like to think it is happening, but it might just be my recent introduction to (religious) reason. They wll die out eventually though, literally. People like us and our children will bring reason to the world. Maybe then we can begin to advance as humans.

We could use a rational thinker on the bench. I don’t like that (arguably) the most powerful branch of our government has been controlled by religious folks. As a Secular Humanist I would like to see someone on the bench who put his faith in the American people.
