   I agree with Natasha and Rudi 100%. Religion is the problem and not
the answer. Not only do we need a rationality day we need the schools to
start teaching students to think for themselves. If I was president of
the U.S. I would make it a law that befor any person could graduate from
high school they would have to take a class based on Carl Sagans' Demon
Haunted World. Upon completion of this class they would have to pass an
extensive test on everything they learned.
   I have brought this up befor and I am bringing it up again. I do not
feel that it is off topic as some has suggested in the past. I am talking
about the Godless Americans March in Washington D.C. on November 2nd
2002. If you are an atheist or a Godless American you should make it a
point to be there. This is a golden opportunity to show America that we
are not a micro-minority, but a large and growing group. If we do not
fight for our rights we will soon lose them. Make no mistake, there are
people out there that would like nothing more than to return America to
the medieval times.
   So how about it!!! Can we get some commitments from people to show up?
How about it Rudi, sounds like something you would be interested in
attending. Can we get a commitment from you. I have committed and I am
layed off from my job.
   American Atheists is also looking for individual and group endorsers.
Check out their website at www.godlessamericans.org  for more information
about this. It would be nice to see Extropy and the Society For Venturism
endorse this march. How about it?
