Atheism is often portrayed in America's very religious culture as a whiny, nitpicky, unpatriotic opponent. Hemant Mehta (friendlyatheist.com) offered that for every $10 bid on himself, he would attend church for one day, and wrote a book about his experience.

On Friday nights I had to be in bed by 10 pm. My mother would tuck me in, turn off the light, and close the door. I would lie under the covers until I heard her settled back into the living room. Then I would slide out of bed, tiptoe to the door, and quietly turn the lock. picked by bornbad 4 months ago
