Stand with Ukraine, Israel, Taiwan -- with democracy and civilization against tyranny and barbarism

Individualist, pro-technology, pro-democracy, anti-religion. I speak only for myself and not for any ideology, movement, or party. It has been my great good fortune to live my whole life free of "spirituality" of any kind. I believe that evidence and reason are the keys to understanding reality; that technology rather than ideology or politics has been the great liberator of humanity; and that in the long run, human intelligence is the most powerful force in the universe.
God doesn't exist
Evolution happened
Global warming is real
Homosexuality is normal
Aging is a curable disease
The election was not stolen
Everything "spiritual" is a lie
US out of UN, UN out of US
Free speech is for everybody
Humans do not have "souls"
Men can't become women
Fetuses are not persons
Words are not violence
Taiwan is a nation
Pluto is a planet

Leaving now, @8:23 AM, Boston, to vote.
GOBama! GO Elizabeth!
Voted last week. If I thought I could get away with it, I'd vote again. ;)
This election has been so silly, it might as well be decided on whether or not Big Bird gets to keep his job.
All well thought out and intellectual arguments... however we are talking about the American public here.
Or as Stephen Hawking explains it:
A well-known scientist once gave a public lecture on astronomy. He described how the earth orbits around the sun and how the sun, in turn, orbits around the center of a vast collection of stars called our galaxy. At the end of the lecture, a little old lady at the back of the room got up and said: "You're very clever, young man, very clever," said the old lady. "But it's turtles all the way down!"
... or as Canadian folk singer Eileen McGann succinctly put it to song: "We're just too stupid for Democracy".
I think this post should be titled "Vote, unless it's for Romney"
SK: Warren wins -- congratulations Massachusetts!
LP: No worries, we're winning fair and square.
Anon: If that issue brings in a few votes, fine with me.
SWA: We shall see, we shall see. So far the American public is kicking the Republicans in the nuts all over the country.
Grundy: That or "Republicans Schmepublicans".
275 to 203 at this moment... I have never been so Happy to have been WRONG!!
Congratulations, Infidel, and all your readers. Now all we have to worry about is how the nut-case Conservatives will react.
RtS: Thanks, and I've seldom been so happy to be right! As for the wingnuts, I'm keeping a close eye on their sites.....
