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

10 Myths about Atheists pt4

Atheism is a white dude thing.

 This one I can see where the misconception comes from though. I mean look at who some of the most vocal atheists are: Richard Dawkins, Christopher Hitchens, Sam Harris

All of them are white guys.

Does this mean that atheism is a white dudes only thing?

Absolutely NOT!

I know people who are far from being a "white dude" that are atheist.

This would be like arguing that because America is filled mostly with christians that America is a "christian nation" ...oh...wait...religtards already do that and yeah, it still is a very stupid analogy as to what someone is or believes or ascribes to.

Atheism should be approached like meeting another culture, ask questions in a genuine way to find out why someone is an atheist, not say stupid shit like "oh, you're female and Hispanic  You must be a catholic stay at home mom". Just...no, don't even.

The Earth has over 7 billion people on it...they most certainly are not ALL white and male (sounds horrible actually) so don't assume that because someone isn't white that they still think religion is crazy and have no need for gods/goddesses that have ever been dreamt up.
