Who I am

My photo
I am an atheist, in fact, I describe myself as a Humanist for I believe in the good in people, not mythical beings.

Places to avoid

This is a section for establishments that openly promote religion:

National Chains
Chick-fil-a
In-n-Out Burger
Alaska Airlines (include bible quotes with meals)
Forever 21 (puts John 3:16 on their tags)
Country Bob's sauces (look who the CEO is)
Edwards frozen pies (bible verse on pie tin)
Desert Essence (beauty products)
Estes (aquarium stones)
Food for Life (baked goods)
Brim's Old South (chips and the like)
Daniel Chapter One (look at the mission statement at the bottom)
Curves (gyms, leaves bibles in workout areas)
Aldi Foods (has buybull verses on the inside of egg cartons)

Local
Carter Brothers Bar-B-Que North Carolina

Franchises (companies who don't seem to be religiously affiliated but might have franchisees who do)
Subway

If you know of any others, please send me a message giving me the name of the company and if possible a link to the company's website showing that they promote religious ideas.

For example http://www.incrediblepizza.com/about.php If you look at bullet number 3 under the mission statement. "We operate our business by Christian principles". The alternate of this would be if they have a religious symbol on their products and/or building. In the case of the pizza company, they have the jebus fish on the doors as you walk in.

I have to give credit to the religutards over at http://www.prophecyfellowship.org/archive/index.php/t-147138.html who posted most of these for me to find so easily!

*Megaplex Theatres is owned by the Larry H Miller Corp who gives 10% of their earnings to the LDS church

If you have the name and possibly a website of a company who proseltyzies a religion and would like me to add it, please comment on this post: http://yamipirogoeth.blogspot.com/2010/07/places-to-avoid.html

Articles of faith...or stupidity part 11

First off, sorry about the 2 months between posts, between school and working for an absolutely retarded company (who I'm not longer employed through), I haven't had a ton of time. But, here is an update for the articles of faith bullshit.


We claim the privilege of worshiping Almighty God according to the dictates of our own conscience, and allow all men the same privilege, let them worship how, where, or what they may.


...4 words in and already they're saying that they have some right that others don't. Privilege is a pretty powerful word and to say that they are privileged in anyway kind of seems a little on the self-righteous thing. Getting on through this...they mention that its up to your own conscience...however that is a flawed concept as they're going off the belief presets that have been programmed into their heads.

Now, granted that the last part gives some freedom to other beliefs but if you actually talk to most people who are mormon, they will tell you that any religion besides mainstream mormonism is a complete load and that they're wrong (I especially hear bullshit like that from my dad's mouth as well).

This one is probably their most benign piece of bull out of all of them, but, there are still 2 more to go...so we'll have to wait and see what they include!
