Found a new atheist for you to look up to - some charming quotes:
We will no longer be oppressed by the fascism called Christianity. We will no longer be oppressed by the mentality of the police state.
-- Marilyn Manson, shouted at the concert in Santa Monica in January, 1997, quoted from Sara Reich, "Manson spits, hits and cuts in Santa Monica," in USC's The Daily Trojan (January 28, 1997)
But I'm not a slave to a god
That doesn't exist
I'm not a slave to a world
That doesn't give a shit
-- Marilyn Manson, "The Fight Song," from the album Holy Wood
Pseudo morals work real well
On the talk shows for the weak
But your selective judgments
And good-guy badges
Don't mean a fuck to me.
-- Marilyn Manson, from "Get Your Gunn" (reference to pro-choice martyr Dr. David Gunn?) on the album Portrait of an American Family
