1) In response to:
Are atheists and freethinkers the same thing?
Not necessarily, though this is often the case as atheists have no box
of dogma their mind isn't allowed to ever leave ;)
By: Thurisaz, Germanic barbarian
Nominated: stoney
Seconded: atheist@home
------------
2) Many people think the Mosaic Law of the Old Testament is full of
ludicrous rules, but as science has advanced it has shown each and every
one to be based in factual reality. Such as the problem of trichinosis
with pork, or skin irritation with polyester.
By: Repent Now
Nominated: Sanity's IittIe helper
Seconded: MarkA
------------
3) God created the nothing from which He created our surroundings.
By: Roy Jose Lorr
Nominated: DanielSan
Seconded: olrik666
------------
4) What is objective and verifiable is still someone's opinion. Our
Christian opinion is, that our NT Bible is sufficiently objective and
verifiable to pass for truth.
By: Pastor Frank
Nominated: Scott Richter
Seconded: DanielSan
------------
5) However, imagine one day you leave a child at daycare, and, because
you cannot always afford to spend your time guessing about atheists, you
forget to leave a note, and so the atheist daycare woman tries to
breastfeed your daughter while you're away, the Lord out of sight and
out of mind.
By: Gordon
Nominated: Neil Kelsey
Seconded: J Forbes
------------
6) Living without God is doomed to live with tooth fairies and
leprechauns. The worst of all, it is to live with the evil tooth fairies
and the devil leprechauns.
By: Eric Brze
Nominated: Douglas Berry
Seconded: Uncle Vic
------------
7) I never proselytize because I have no interest in coverting people to
religions that they are not interested in. My beliefs are my business,
and theirs is their business. Those beliefs make no difference in the
type of person he or she is, how a person acts and treats others is what
is important. Religions are inconsequential when compared to the person
as a whole, and are a non-issue to anyone that is intelligent and
compassionate.
Unlike you and bam, I respect people and their differences. I have no
significant interest in changing their personal beliefs.

Here are the rules for the Quote of the Month Contests.
RULES
1. Only atheists and agnostics may participate in the contests.
2. A quote is a valid entry for the contests if:
a. The quote is a brief piece of text
b. The quote has recently been written in alt.atheism (verifiable),
and is original (no quotes by famous authors, for instance)
c. Nomination of the quote is made by an atheist or agnostic
in alt.atheism
d. Nomination of the quote is supported by at least one other
atheist or agnostic in alt.atheism;
e. The quote is not nominated or seconded by the person who wrote it
in the first place (no one is allowed to nominate him- or herself,
but a person can vote for the quote he or she wrote.)
3. There will be two categories: 'Atheist Quote of the Month'
and 'Theist Quote of the Month'. The category for which a
quote must be nominated must be mentioned by the atheist or
agnostic who wants to nominate it.
If a quote is miscategorized (e.g. an atheist quote is mistakenly
nominated in the Theist QOTM category), the quote will be re-directed
to appear in the correct category, with approriate notification.
4. Nominations can be made until five days before the first of the
next month. If quotes are nominated after this period, they will be
considered as entries for the contest of the next month.
* When making a nomination, please use this format for the subject
line:
"aa - <A or T as applicable>QOTM Nomination (was: <original thread
name>)"
5. Each atheist or agnostic who visits alt.atheism has one vote to
cast for each category (two votes total).
6. Voting starts 5 days before the end of the month. During the month,
votes will be ignored. This way, all nominees will have equal chance of
winning.
7. The two winning quotes will be published in the QOTM Archive.
SUMMARY
A nomination must contain the following information:
1. The lines of the quote.
2. Who wrote it.
3. Who nominates or seconds the nomination of this quote (that's you!)
4. Which category this nomination is for.
5. The word "nomination" MUST appear somewhere in the subject line!
6. The original thread title must appear in the subject line.
Publish the nomination or support for a nomination in a designated
thread, preferably called "[T/A]QoTM Nomination for [month]." You can
also e-mail it to me (see below).
VOTING
1. In the last five days of the month you can cast your vote in both
categories.
2. Votes must be placed in the designated thread.

BTW, nemo, entry #1 is by Thurisaz, Germanic barbarian. I think he's an
atheist with tongue-in-cheek allegience to the old Norse gods. Might be
his nomination belongs in the AQOTM category.
No, he has stated several times that he is a theist. I pointed this out to
Nemo last month.
I stand corrected.

Not necessarily, though this is often the case as atheists have no box of
dogma their mind isn't allowed to ever leave ;)

I gotta go for this one. I've read it a dozen times, and it comes across
as loonier every time I read it.

Once upon a time in alt.atheism, dear sweet *nemo* (nemo0037
@earthlink.dieSPAM.net) made the light shine upon us with this:
5) However, imagine one day you leave a child at daycare, and, because
you cannot always afford to spend your time guessing about atheists, you
forget to leave a note, and so the atheist daycare woman tries to
breastfeed your daughter while you're away, the Lord out of sight and
