Log Cabin Atheists

Many well reasoned atheists disagree on issues of taxation, foreign policy, states rights, etc. So I can understand why not all atheists are politically active and that all the atheists that are politically active may not all be Democrats. But what I can’t understand is how any well reasoned atheist could possibly be a Republican.

While the only thing that all atheists have to have in common by virtue of being an atheist is a lack of belief in deities however most modern atheists tend to also be humanistic atheists who value reason over faith.

The Republican Party has become the political party of faith over the last 30 or 40 years. It isn’t just that the vast majority of the current Republican Party are fundamentalist Christians. It isn’t even just that the Republican talking heads use religion as a wedge on just about every issue. It isn’t even just that the Republican Party focuses on issues like being against things like gay rights, abortion, and stem cell research. It is all of those things and more.

The Republican Party has waged a war on non-believers. The fact is that during the 2008 Republican Primary, three prominent candidates raised their hands as rejecting the science of evolution. John McCain was not among them, but had to take a moment to clarify his acceptance of evolution with his religious belief that God created the sunrise or something or other. It is also significant that McCain was advised to pick an overly religious vice-presidential candidate to help him empower the extremely fundamentalist religious base of the Party.

I can’t understand how any non-believer could possibly support a political party or a politician who believes that atheists are un-American and immoral simply because we lack a belief in a deity. I’m not saying that all atheists have to be Democrats, but just don’t understand how an atheist could support a party that hates them. It is like being a black member of the KKK or a Jewish Nazi. Those maybe extreme examples, but the point is that they illustrate that the Republican Party actively works against the rights and freedoms of atheists.
