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.

Actually this is yet

Actually this is yet another good way to prove the bible is BS. Isaiah Ch 35 Verse 8: "and an highway shall be there, and a way, and it shall be called The way of holiness; the unclean shall not pass over it;"

I passed over that sucker last year. I'm unclean according to the bible.

The segment of I-35 that runs through KC, that I drive on everday, has the biggest number of asshole drivers that I've ever seen anywhere. Its poorly lit and the on and off ramps are extremely dangerous. The only thing "holy" about it are the the potholes.

I just saw that video: 1.

I just saw that video:

1. This is so obviously a publicity stunt.

2. Perhaps more importantly, from the religious right's point of view, it is probably an excuse to evangelize. If there aren't people already trying to "save the lost" on I-35...wait.
