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.

To everyone else:

Feel free to express your sympathies/remorse.

"Natasha has just come up to the window from the courtyard and opened it wider so that the air may enter more freely into my room. I can see the bright green strip of grass beneath the wall, and the clear blue sky above the wall, and sunlight everywhere. Life is beautiful. Let the future generations cleanse it of all evil, oppression and violence, and enjoy it to the full."

I'll second that. Didn't the 'outgoing administration' actually consult him on global warming?

I don't know anything about

I don't know anything about his personal global environmental issues, but I think he was an excellent science fiction author. I was saddened to hear of his passing.

Thank God I'm an atheist.
