    “Come see the totem I wear of my dead god. He’s not really god he’s just the son of god. That we killed. We nailed his body to this stick. Now the stick is our symbol. Wear it around your neck to remember the murder weapon of our god”

    You spend enough time with New Atheists, and you very quickly discover why the movement tripped over its own dick and died back in the '00s.

    Christopher Hitchens secularizing the invasion of Iraq and Afghanistan, Sam Harris secularizing Islamophobia, Richard Dawkins secularizing misogyny. Joel Osteen juice and crackers seem far more attractive than some greasy, hollow-eyed Objectivist preaching nihilism and genocide in the name of corporate profits.
