In a Christian Theocracy, you'll never be Christian enough.

I'm the daughter of two Indian immigrant doctors, and I have an older sister and younger brother, and none of us have pursued medicine as a career. We're all over the artistic side of things.
I asked my daughter when she was 16, What's the buzz on the street with the kids? She's going, to be honest, Dad, most of my friends aren't into Kiss. But they've all been told that it's the greatest show on Earth.

I am not agnostic. I am atheist. I donâ€™t think there is no God; I know thereâ€™s no God. I know thereâ€™s no God the same way I know many other laws in our universe. I know thereâ€™s no God and I know most of the world knows that as well. They just wonâ€™t admit it because thereâ€™s another thing they know. They know theyâ€™re going to die and it freaks them out. So most people donâ€™t have the courage to admit thereâ€™s no God and they know it. They feel it. They try to suppress it. And if you bring it up they get angry because it freaks them out.

Atheists have just as much of a right to the public discourse as any ... people of any religious faith in this country.
Let us be done with the notion that religion is confined to petty pieties and small constraints. All too often people who have possessed these pieties have wrought great evil.
