		<description><![CDATA[If we switch the terms for color with faith, it becomes very apparent just how ‘wrong’ it is. Imagine government run Christian-only bathrooms. Christian-only restaurants. What happens? Well, whoops – it’s not that Christians get to hang together and everyone else goes about their business happily… no. What happens is that now, these Christians are placed in a position of ENFORCING compliance. ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[From Kent Hovind's PhD thesis:[pdf page 11]:<em> "I would like to trace the history of evolution from the fall of Satan from heaven, through the last six thousand years, to modern day evolution, and explain what those teaching this doctrine have planned for the future.  To really understand the history of evolution, we have to understand the author. Satan is the master-mind behind this false doctrine."</em>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The American Humanist Association has launched the first National &#8216;Good without God&#8217; Holiday Campaign. Why? Because there are many non-believers out there who feel alone in their disbelief, and they should feel just as good about who they are and what they believe as everyone else. They need to know they are NOT alone. &#8220;Humanists]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Just what is an ex-atheist? Inspired by Staks Rosch&#8217;s blog today at http://www.dangeroustalk.net/?p=168, I wanted to add some of my thoughts to the issue. I&#8217;ve never met a &#8216;REAL&#8217; ex-atheist. No doubt your first thought (if you&#8217;re theist) is that I&#8217;m in denial. But no, I am pretty certain that I&#8217;m not, and I&#8217;ll tell]]></description>
