I agree with you on some parts. but your not suggesting that all those who beleive in religion are all complete fools. (at least not out loud)

I wonder who stated the words "The greatest triumph of reason and logic is its ability to question its own validity"

Atheists often are accused of arrogance or a lack of wonder. These accusations are not true, in fact quite the contrary. It is the atheist's strong sense of wonder and curiosity that brings him or her to challenge narrow-minded unjustified notions about the world. An atheist simply refuses to deny the obvious. An atheist is someone who takes a critical look at the religious creationist ideas about the universe and comes to the conclusion that these claims are absurd. An atheist will not tell the AIDS ravaged people of sub-Saharan that contraception is sinful. Atheists will not fill the streets setting fire to buildings and killing people over satirical cartoons. Atheists will not advocate for mythology to be taught in science class. Atheists simply look at the world critically and base their actions on the best available evidence.</blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/0D977A6A-FAD3-4918-B6B0-DCE9AC0AE600/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content7.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
