Mr O’Reilly,
Please add me to your "Hall of Shame"
This is my website: http://harrybathwater.blogspot.com/
Admittedly I haven’t actually written anything on my blog that could be considered “smearing” you yet but it won’t be too long before I do and so I’m hoping that you could list me now.
Thank you and regards.

The terrorists are "fundraising".
Let me explain something about terrorists.
The main job of a terrorist leader such as BinLaden is the exact same job as a politician in America.
Fundraising.
Without money they are both dead in the water.
To fundraise, therefore, both groups use whatever power they have. Politicians, it seems, have a friendly “scratch my back” policy because their power is in drafting legislation.
Terrorists, however, have bombs.
If it seems strange to you that places such as seaside resorts in Egypt and Indonesia are terrorist targets when there are other softer and more political targets easily available, this is the reason.
The terrorists are fundraising.
They know the devastating effect that a bomb blast will have on the economy of a holiday resort and so they explode a few at the beginning of the tourist season. This immediately terrifies the owners of other such locations in the region and causes them to do whatever it takes to protect their livelihoods.
They will then pay “under the counter” for protection and you can bet that hotel owners all around the Red sea are now scrambling to "cough up some wedge".
The same thing took place in Ireland for years. People would go to the business owners in the area and ask for financial help in the “struggle” or the "cause". If a business owner didn’t pay, his location would be destroyed in a “terrorist bombing”. This made sure that all the other business owners would then pay up.
It’s a simple protection racket and, because it’s how these people earn their living, it’s not going to stop. The terrorists would be very reluctant to give up a career that affords them a superb income, relaxed hours, power and notoriety in favour of a 9-5 down at the docks.
I also believe that this is the main reason why we haven’t had any terrorist incidents within America since 911. The terrorist thugs know that it would be much harder to extort money from American business owners because they are hardly going to hand over cash to “support the terrorist cause” the way Middle Eastern business owners will.
Would someone please forward this to the Whitehouse because the Bush people don't understand that terrorists are simply gangsters selling protection.
They use the guise of a political struggle to raise funds.
They therefore have no interest in the struggle going away.
And it's hard to fight gangsters with armies.

Fighting them over there.
Pinky (as in Pinky and the Brain –George and Karl) keeps talking about “fighting them over there so we don’t have to fight them here”
I must point out that, as we all know now, Iraq has nothing to do with the 911 attacks.
This means therefore, that we simply chose a random country to be the “over there”
I’m glad, of course, that he chose Iraq instead of Italy or Portugal as the battleground but I’m sure it has pissed off the Iraqis.

Wanted: Gutsy former believer.
I have stated many times before that religion is the biggest “con trick” in the world. People pay good money to shysters selling “heaven insurance”.
I fully understand that a great many of these “shysters” totally believe the repugnant message that they preach from their lofty pulpit each Sunday and they have no idea that they are perpetrating a massive fraud, but the sad fact is that they are.
They are extorting money from their congregation using the fiction of an “afterlife” which is just a vile scare tactic designed to extort money from people using the threat of eternal damnation.
What is needed therefore is a former believer who has been duped by this racket for most of his life and has handed over many hundreds or maybe thousands of dollars and is now willing to stand, broad shouldered, against this crime and file a lawsuit.
He or she will demand irrefutable proof, to be demonstrated in a court of law, that everything they have been told about god, Jesus, heaven and hell is true. Otherwise they receive financial restitution plus damages.
This person will need a strong backbone and skin thick enough to withstand the shrieking and howling that will undoubtedly arise from the mindless religious autobots who vilify all who disagree with their pernicious notions.
Also wanted: Lawyer with massive cochonnes.

Compelling evidence that Bush is the Anti-Christ.
Being an atheist I don't, of course believe in an "anti-christ" just as I don't believe in the theory of god.
However.....
It must be said that this website has a very compelling argument that George Bush is the actual spawn of the devil.

And if it someday turns out to not be true, and that George Bush is simply a stupid man that was carried on the shoulders of clever men into the most important job in the world I'll apologize for thinking the worst. - Harry.

"Bullshit" Does The Bible.
You must watch this:
Penn & Teller on the bible.
It's all superb but the best line is at the end when Penn Jillette says:
"Whatever you do don't read the bible for a moral code. It advocates prejudice, cruelty, superstition and murder. Read it because we need more atheists, and nothing will get you there faster than reading the damn bible."

You will want to laugh at your former friends as they squirm in anguish trying to live a life devoid of true understanding and meaning but you should pity them and try to help them achieve a true view of the world.
You will be able to walk down the street with your head held high knowing that, no longer are you at the mercy of an illogical belief system that relies upon untruths and fear to perpetuate itself.

Similar words.

I don’t believe that it’s by coincidence that these words sound very similar.
Lawyers – Liars
Freud – Fraud
Christianity - Insanity

Why I don't believe in god. A brief summary.
By
Harry Bathwater
The world is heading in a dangerous direction and it's because of this pernicious belief in god.
A belief in god shows a dramatic lack of understanding of the real world.
At about the same time that I stopped believing in Santa Claus and the Easter bunny I also stopped believing in god. It was very apparent top me at the age of about 7 that god was not real. I kept believing it however until I was perhaps 13 because it is such an ingrained tradition.
I understand that none of us wants to be alone in our own heads and it’s very comforting to believe that someone is in there with us, but they are not.
I also understand that no of us wants to die and it’s REALLY comforting to believe that we don’t. But that instead we float up to heaven where we sit at god’s side for all eternity.
And I now know that thunder and lightning are not god being angry with us and that the northern lights are not fairies and that a solar eclipse is not gods trick to get our attention.
We have created god for two reasons.
1. It is a way of explaining things we don’t understand. Death, the weather etc.
2. It is a fantastic way for a lot of people to make a living.
God and the devil is a “carrot and stick” designed to make us do what someone else wants us to do and there a lot of people in the world telling us we need to contribute to their church to please god. It is the biggest confidence trick ever.
To believe in god you must pluck out the eyes of reason.
I am a proud member of the reality based community.
I always win every argument about the existence of god and every time my opponents are left with just one pitiful closing volley. Pascal’s wager.
So in summary, the reason I don’t believe in god is because I’m a grown up.
