While searching the web for some funny atheist humor with which to tag my friends, I came across this article (see below). As a person with a graduate-level background in psychology, I was particularly fascinated with the way this "Christian Philosopher" explained how people become atheists. All I can say is...Freud would have a fit if he was alive today!! Enjoy! :)

Quotes of the Day:
"The God-Creator is openly called Father. Psychoanalysis concludes that he really is the father, clothed in the grandeur in which he once appeared to the small child.... The emotional strength of this memory-image and the lasting nature of his need for protection are the two supports for [the religious man's] belief in God."
"Devout believers are safeguarded in a high degree against the risk of certain neurotic illnesses; their acceptance of the universal neurosis spares them the task of constructing the personal one."
--Sigmund Freud
