The sorry state of American atheists, then, may have nothing to do with their lack of religious belief. It may instead be the result of their outsider status within a highly religious country where many of their fellow citizens [...] find them immoral and unpatriotic. Religion may not poison everything, but it deserves part of the blame for this one.

Curiously Obsessed
I am one of the (un)lucky 28 million who received a copy of Obsession: Radical Islam’s War Against the West in my mailbox last week. The DVD has been suggested to target voters in swing states—of which New Hampshire is one—as an attempt to influence the vote towards McCain.
This movie will not influence my vote in any way, but you can be sure that I will watch it this weekend, and then critically analyse and fact check it to hell. (Or find someone who has done it already.) Is it a piece of trash? Probably. But I’m interested to see what it has to say.
Note bene—This is the DVD that has been linked to the gassing of 300 babies and children in Ohio.
