to have Richard Dawkins and Pat Condell unite and create the Atheist Association Against Religious Nut Jobs (AAARNJ) and have them making a weekly TV show (specially sundays) in which they actively bashed religion and religious people.

I think this is an idea worthy of exploring Very Happy

It would be fun at first but what would be a point of that? people bash each other on TV pretty much all day long..it gets tireying eventually and you will not achieve nothing with it but than again in US most viewed tv show is american idol..makes you wonder in which direction we are going..no wonder all the cool shows are getting canned left and right

and btw " In GOD we trust"

A group of people (atheists) led by someone who tells us what we should(not) believe in? How is that different from the theists? No thank you.

Your intention (hope?) probably is that more people will join and one day religion will be eliminated entirely one day. Not going to happen because people don't just stop doing what they are doing because someone tells them to. It has to come from within and that is a journey that we must all travel alone.

isn't that religion, a bunch of people that believe in something because they were told to?

My intention is to make fun of religion, because, making fun of retard people is amoral, but religious people are not social defined as retard, so we can make fun of them without feeling ashamed of making fun of a mentally ill person, because that is what religious people and people who believe in supernatural phenomenon are, mentally ill, stupid and ridiculous.

It's not 'anyone' telling these people to believe. It is a combination of brain-washing by parents, teachers, colleagues, etc and social pressure and fear of stepping outside which keeps people where they are. You don't undo that kind of damage with just making fun of them. If anything, it will make them retreat even more into their stronghold and assume a siege mentality.

And besides why should I care about these people being enslaved if they like the way they are. More freedom for me. All mine! Sweet freedom! Twisted Evil
