The Rational Response Squad is a group of atheist activists who impact society by changing the way we view god belief. This site is a haven for those who are pushing back against the norm, and a place for believers of gods to have their beliefs exposed as false should they want to try their hand at confronting us.

About a month ago, I was asked a question that I don't think has ever been asked before.

While waiting to submit some paperwork so I could get my current job, a man next to me asked about the IPU lapel pin I was wearing. I told him it's a symbol for atheism, and so he asked the question which had never been asked before.

A question no other atheist (or theist, for that matter) has ever been asked.

The man, a Hispanic 25-year NYPD veteran, asked me:

Just for the record, while I don't believe in the existence of any gods, I will go out of my way for the sake of rice and beans. Yes, I know it's a stereotype, but it's one that for the most part is true.

Good night, funny man, and thanks for the laughter.
