Atheists: The New Gays

By Scott Adams

Is it my imagination or have the atheists come out of the closet (in the United States) since 9/11?
Prior to 9/11, it would have been career suicide for a public figure to come right out and say God is a fairy tale. Now it’s a feature of popular culture. You can see it on cable of course, in shows such as BullSh*t, Real Time, The Daily Show, and Southpark. But it’s also a feature of network TV. The main character on House is written as the most brilliant human on the planet, and he’s an atheist. The new show 3lbs has a similar character. I can’t remember anything like that ten years ago.

Maybe atheists are coming out of the closet due to Bush's call to "teach the controversy".. (just kiddin)
