The Rational Response Squad is a group of atheist activists who impact society by changing the way we view god belief. This site is a haven for those who are pushing back against the norm, and a place for believers of gods to have their beliefs exposed as false should they want to try their hand at confronting us.

In the words of AIGS, the world just got a little bit shitier (anyone know where AIGS has been?). I'll drink a shot or six in his honor tonight (as if I needed the excuse). It is sad when the musicians who defined your youth start passing away.

I found this through some links of the Beastie Boys, this is a documentry on Maurice Sendak by Spike Jonzes, which was produced through Adam's production company. I thought it was very fitting considering... enjoy.

Never been much of a rap

Never been much of a rap fan, but anyone my age knows the impact they had on music. He will be missed by his fans, but even more so his family and friends.
