Inspired from youth by Albert Camus' sense of the Absurd, I try to be a voice for REASON in the growing darkness and moral insanity of global capitalism .

Remembering Christopher Hitchens | Richard Dawkins, Stephen Fry, Douglas...
The half-demented New Atheism Cult " War on Faith " does not advance what famous biologist Charles Darwin understood in the middle of the 19th century -the true origin of the species. I understand that the Catholic Church today does not have a " know nothing " attitude toward SCIENCE , even the BIG BANG ( which has its own cult of TRUE BELIEVERS ) .
But the New Atheism Cult has a very definite , quite reactionary ,political agenda : Find one of the cult members loudly opposed to CAPITALISM, AMERICAN IMPERIALISM, and ISRAELI ZIONISM ? Indeed , Christopher Hitchens , ex-Trotskyist ( not ex-alcoholic ) now departed , and no doubt enjoying the pristine NOTHINGNESS that created him , actually bragged about being a born again ZIONIST and even being part Jewish . Hitchens gave his whole hearted support to American imperialism's criminal invasion and occupation of Iraq ( the Devil became Islam ). When we lose traditional FAITH in God we can always worship some nation-state !
Also, none of the star power New Atheists care to protest the decades long WOKE WARRIOR Democratic Party ( and their mainstream new media ) based betrayal of the FREE SPEECH, FREE THOUGHT tradition of Western Civilization. I guess their SCIENCE has no need for a free discussion of Ideas & Opinions .
Can you begin to create a mass movement of REASON by scolding and insulting and ridiculing BILLIONS of religious people on the this planet ? Are you in fact promoting a dictatorship -not of the proletariat ( or even of the bourgeoisie ) but of the eternally snobby INTELLECTUAL CLASS ?
The biggest mistake of the Old Soviet Union was not SOCIALISM . It was declaring itself a godless , " officially atheist " tyranny ( and thereby poisoning the SOCIALIST idea for a century ) .
