Atheism according to the puerile reactionary - The Irish Times - Fri, Jul 17, 2009

Congratulations on the free publicity Michael Nugent!

Just as a matter of interest, is Madam contractually obliged to print every effusion that comes out of Waters' long-suffering keyboard?

This one hits a new low -- in em ... puerile reaction.

Speaking of John Waters, that's saying a lot.

I particularly like the bit near the start where he suggests he's done the 'neo-atheist' thing and he's so over it.

By the way Mr. Waters, ethical secularism is doing very well indeed in my household and, more generally, in the bit of Germany where I live. It seems not to have been a total failure in the modern and very dynamic Czech republic either.

My children behave, the East Germans are not rioting in the street and are not suffering from the level of gangland violence in non-secular Finglas or Limerick, for example. Ditto the Czechs.

When I ask my eldest pointedly whether she wants a happy daddy or a grumpy daddy, she has a little think and then generally does what she's told.

There's not a sign of religion anywhere and yet nobody's killing the neighbours in order to eat their kidneys with a nice dry Riesling.
