Science and Reason

Articles on how rational science proves religions are wrong. Some articles discuss evolution and others discuss how science is incompatible with religion. If you want to have both religion and science in your life, you have to create a partition between them - so you live in two worlds: real and fantasy-land.

Why being rational is good; why atheists are as good as anyone else even though they are not threatened or inspired by a god; and because they don't have religious hatreds and prejudices, are often actually better!

For statistics - see All Religions since even though Atheism is not a religion, statistics on the beliefs of people include those who have no religion. A bit like people who have no political allegiance will answer "none" to a poll question on what party they support.
