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.

Virtue Of The Oppressed, By Brian37
Christian in
The coliseum
Persecution
Via death of lion
China's strong arm
Over Tibet
Buddhist monks
Burn themselves
Sunni's and Shiites
Do the same
Point the finger
And falsely claim
And the beef
In Ireland
Is no different
Than Palestine
It stems from
Our empathy
For the under dog
Forgetting the harm
Forgetting the harm
In evolution
When we finally win
We do the same
Virtue long term
Has no meaning
In a species
That keeps forgetting
We oppress
For the same reason
We don't want
To be oppressed
In group out group
Us vs them
The underdog
Can go on to be dangerous
The other guy
Always wrong
Is our mistake
When our past the same
DNA
Is what we have
Our wants and needs
Always transcend
Power shifts
Over time
Once on the bottom
We climb to the top
We climb to the top
And do the same
Often forgetting
What was done to us
The rational conclusion
We must all accept
To avoid the past
There can be no virtue of the oppressed.
"We are a nation of Christians and Muslims, Jews and Hindus -- and nonbelievers."Obama
