feeling better

I can’t adequately tell you how much better I feel after my trip. I feel more centered, confident, and with purpose. I feel unburdened by the trivial matters of my life. I feel ready to take on a new challenge or continue an old one. I feel like I’m no longer willing to take shit [...] 0

Smut for Smut Bibles for Porn!

RRS Alerts - Wed, 2010-03-03 05:57

Students in Texas offer porn in exchange for Bibles, the campaign is called smut for smut.  I urge you to support this project with your voice.  Follow the students on twitter @AtheistAgenda and respond to criticisms and whining from theists on news sites around the net.  

Visit this thread for more details on smut for smut: http://www.rationalresponders.com/smut_for_smut_atheist_agenda

Due to the recent closing of a very popular atheist forum and a broken community the RRS is reaching out on atheist websites reminding folks that our forums are designed to unite activist atheists and foster a community that can work to get behind projects like the one created by our heroes of tomorrow at USTA.  Please visit this thread to make a very small contribution that supports a whole slew of atheist websites and will help unite atheist activists on RRS where their content and opinions will remain safe and welcome.

Let's work together to promote the atheist heroes of the week

Sapient's blog - Wed, 2010-03-03 05:18

I want to extend my congratulations to the Atheist Agenda students The University of Texas at San Antonio.  They put themselves on the line in public to raise awareness. Much like the Blasphemy Challenge they have found a way to be controversial thereby grabbing attention and literally forcing theists to think.  I should bring you up to speed if you're not familiar.  Over the last few days Atheist Agenda students have gathered on campus with magazines and books of various types of pornography and offered to swap any holy book for some porn.  The campaign is called smut for smut.  

Typically the reactionary over-emotional irrational thinking of theists hinders them from contemplating why a group would compare the bible to porn.  The irony is unique here in that theists are taught by their religious leaders to avoid pornography, yet pornography is one of the most successful businesses on the planet and made so largely by religious people.  The gut reaction of a theist when seeing someone turn in their bible for porn is to be disgusted or upset.  This reaction happens in part as a defense mechanism due to years of brainwashing.  Their defense is to avoid thinking about the bible in such a negative light.  One can only hope the campaign forces contemplation among the more sane theists out there, and from my years of experience watching them I believe it does.  For what it's worth the students have stated that this isn't about being for porn, it's about being anti-bible.  

I could go on and on but I don't want to lose you.  The main reason I'm writing this is to implore you to spread the word of this campaign.  It's already received national attention in several news pieces and it's the type of story that will force people to think about the vile disgusting nature of a book they call Holy.  

Here is how you can help...

Follow the Atheist Agenda on twitter and spread the word on twitter to follow them: http://twitter.com/AtheistAgenda

Check out their blog: http://atheistagendautsa.blogspot.com/

Engage in a discussion with anyone commenting on the project in the many national pieces currently running online. 

Here is a thread originally started by Brian37 on this site: http://www.rationalresponders.com/forum/19843

Here are two news stories on youtube from national news about the campaign:

Here is one more story from Chris Deluna on smut for smut.

Last weeks atheist hero has got to be Angie the Anti Theist who smashed taboos about abortion by tweeting all the way through an at home abortion by pill procedure and engaging anyone who had a problem with it.  Add her on twitter as well!  http://twitter.com/AntitheistAngie
