Oversimplification won't get you far on this message board.

1 If you don't work, you don't eat

Lots of civilizations have lived by this rule. Hardly an ideal that can be seriously attributed to atheism exclusively.

2 Everyone must believe the same thing.

The Roman Empire -- hardly atheistic -- dealt handily with its 'infidels.'

3 Someone knows _everything you do, encouraged to spy on each other by the elite.

Arguably a big aspect of American life. Ask Americans of Arabic descent, or look up 'Narc.' Try doing some research into J. Edgar Hoover and Martin Luther King, Jr.

4 One religion ruled the country for centuries.

Ever been to Italy?

5 Science is warped to serve the elite's agendas.

Ever been to Kansas?

6 One company owns each town and in some ways, owns its inhabitants too.

How about Flint, Michigan? Sure, it was more than one company, but it was all the same industry.

Conclusion: You're not on AOL anymore, Toto. You must do a little better to turn heads in this room.
