Dear Ann,
In the old days, circa 1950, being an atheist was scandalous, serial monogamy was shocking and ‘shacking up’ was not done by better people. It was even a source of embarrassment to be legitimately medicated past the point of clarity.
Times change. Being relatively free of superstition is no longer considered socially unacceptable. An avowed atheist still has major hurdles in getting elected to office, but don't kid yourself. The population and government is not so godly as the polls show.
The books and open discussion of atheism are part of the process of a philosophy striding out of the shadows. The Enlightenment may come to America after all.
Today, they are all denouncing her for calling Hillary’s legs chubby. Not supposed to comment on someone’s appearance. LOL Since when?
Actually, the data I have seen show that about 25% of liberals describe themselves as creationists. So this is not a fact at all.
What superstition are you referring to?
