Our own scientists have become capable of editing lifeforms, which is a precursor step to creating life from scratch.

Once we prove that is possible, there is no reason not to believe that everything on our planet was created by advanced extraterrestrial life.

There are private universities, and they can do whatever the hell they want. Maybe it would be illegal in a public high school, but not necessarily a university.

In May 1975, as it prepared to allow unmarried blacks to enroll, BJU adopted more detailed rules prohibiting interracial dating and marriage—threatening expulsion for any student who dated or married interracially, who advocated interracial marriage, who was "affiliated with any group or organization which holds as one of its goals or advocates interracial marriage," or "who espouse, promote, or encourage others to violate the University's dating rules and regulations."[93] In a 2000 interview, the then-president, Bob Jones III, said that interracial dating had been prohibited since the 1950s and that the policy had originated in a complaint by parents of a male Asian student who believed that their son had "nearly married" a white girl.[94]

Transcript of an interview with Larry motherfucking King

"JONES: Well, being a Bible believing institution, Larry, we try to base things on Bible principle. The problem we have today is that our principle is so greatly misunderstood. People think we don't let them date because we are racist, in other words to be racist you have to treat people differently. We don't. We don't let them date, because we were trying, as an example, to enforce something, a principle that is much greater than this."

"We stand against the one-world government, against the coming world of anti-Christ, which is a one world system of blending, of all differences, of blending of national differences, economic differences, church differences, into a big one ecumenical world. The Bible is very clear about this"

"We said, you know, way back years ago, when we first had a problem, which was -- by the way, we started this principle, back in the mid-'50s, I was a college student at BJU at the time and it was with an Asian and Caucasian is -- we didn't even have black students for another 15 years. So it was not put there as a black thing, I think people need to understand that."

This is misleading, the correlation is the other way around. Being happy and prosperous means you have less need for religion.

Religion is like a painkiller, people will use it when they're down on their luck.

The best way to spread atheism is to make people happier. Notice that all three of these countries have big welfare states. America doesn't, and so Americans are unhappy, and so Americans are religious.
