Once again I find myself in the situation of finding an article that says everything I would say, only says it better. The article tackles the prickly subject of Atheism in a society that is fairly ignorant of people who do not find blind faith in things they can't prove, a choice they can make. There are many myths about Atheism currently in our present society and, shockingly, it has been proven that the sign on most Political positions is clear: "Atheists Need Not Apply".
Greta Christina has written an article about 10 Myths and Truths About Atheists.
A 2005 survey showed that the USA had the least number of Atheists of the Top 20 countries.
In January 2009, Yahoo carried a story about buses throughout the world showing signs on their sides to persuade people that God does not exist. The majority of Atheists do not subscribe to man being the highest power in the universe, simply that Man has invented a variety of Gods with no proof that any of them are legitimate and cannot be taken on Faith.
