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.

Ockham's Razor, By Brian37
Utterances abound
Nothing profound
Imaginations compete
Through marketing
The mechanic does not
Dismantle the car
As a default
If it does not start
An atom is simple
Builds to the complex
Not the reverse
As believers suggest
A "who" is not needed
For all of this
Much less one
Rooted in myth
100 grand
In years it takes
For a ray of light
To travel the galaxy
How petty the stories
How mundane we are
As a species
To fill in the gaps with absurdities
The believer accepts
All others wrong
Refusing to question
Claims of their own
Between postulations
Of the two
Of existence or imaginaton
Which one is true?
A magical brain
With no location
No material
With super powers
No neurons
No cerebellum
Who fancied
Our violent universe?
Or could it be
Our mundane wishes
Of super heros
To come and save us?
Between the two
What makes more sense
A self centered deity
Or self serving humans
Thoughts require
A material process
Much like running
Requires legs
Running
Is not a thing
But the description
Of physical action
Ockham's Razor dispels all myth
By rightfully defaulting to the simplest choice
A comic book hero
Vs human's wishful thinking?
"We are a nation of Christians and Muslims, Jews and Hindus -- and nonbelievers."Obama
