…we must condemn the madness of theism in all its forms, regardless of those wanting to make peace with that societal cancer. Such poison must go, else human advancement will be throttled before the potential that burgeoning technologies offer can be realized. We make our own destinies, and if the stars are to be ours, devotion to deities must be left in the playpen of primitive societies and those who cling to that delusion must be outlawed from participation in civilization global and beyond—if we desire as a species to make it that far. –Magus Peter H.
