Religion is less important and less influential than ever before in American society. Let’s keep it that way.

American Xtianity is losing its grip on our society, 15% of Americans are now brave enough to declare No Beliefs and that is the fastest growing "religious"group in the US. I wait in anticipation for the day all forms of bronze age superstitious dogmas we know as Religion gets a stake driven into it's heart and withers in to dust like the mythical Vampire.
It's about time a secular humanity rise above living by and for myths and legends and start dealing with the problems of this world with reality. We don't look to the ancients for guidance regarding physics, astronomy, economics, or medicine. Why should we follow and kill each other over their moral instructions? We have outgrown the superstitions of ancient desert-dwellers just as we have advanced scientific knowledge beyond what was knowable in 100 AD. When we as a nation have the courage to admit that, then and only then we can create a better world for all of us.
I think some day societies will look back at today and acknowledge that religions infantilize the human mind and have held back human development. Humanity will remember Religions, whatever their perverted stripe, smile with some sadness, shake its head, and then file it as we now do Zeus, sprit possessions, witches, ghosts, and alien abductions, as delusional absurdities!

Tax the Churches!!
