There is no God, Summer. You’ve got to rip that Band-Aid off now. You’ll thank me later.

Don't hide behind a nonexistent being just because you're scared. Be brave, be fierce.

In “Atheist Awakening,” Messrs. Cimino and Smith track the current state of the atheist community, such as it is, using interviews, surveys and field reporting. The portrait they draw reveals a diffuse group that is struggling to sort out the core assumptions of its unbelief. It is also a group anxious about its status in society and keen to coalesce into a movement.
An Army recruiting station must shelve a sidewalk sandwich board with the wording "On a mission for both God and country."
It is nice to see the Army using some common sense!!
Ha Ha!!
I don’t think God cares a whole lot about the outcome. He cares about the people involved, but I don’t think he’s a big football fan.

More children are “growing up godless” than at any other time in our nation’s history. They are the offspring of an expanding secular population that includes a relatively new and burgeoning category of Americans called the “Nones,” so nicknamed because they identified themselves as believing in “nothing in particular” in a 2012 study by the Pew Research Center.
The Pope condemned the killing in France. “One cannot offend, make war, kill in the name of one’s own religion, that is, in the name of God,” Francis said. “To kill in the name of God is an aberration.”
But he went on to say...
There are so many people who speak badly about religions or other religions, who make fun of them, who make a game out of the religions of others," he said. "They are provocateurs. And what happens to them is what would happen to Dr. Gasparri if he says a curse word against my mother. There is a limit.
Did he just justify violence just as he was saying violence is unacceptable?
The death penalty for apostasy relies at the core of it on an authentically verified Hadith from Prophet Muhammad who said, "Whoever changes his religion kill him." This statement, however, would seem to contradict numerous verses in the Quran that guarantee freedom of belief, few of which include "There is no compulsion in religion" [2:256], and "Whoever so wills may believe and whoever so wills may deny" [18:29].
If churches paid taxes... Once again Cracked's social commentary hits the mark.

Should we as atheists be working toward this idea? Or is the secularization (defundamentalising) of religion by incremental change a method that is too slow of a process?
From the article:
First, secularize religion. By that I mean keep the rituals, the holidays, the buildings, the gatherings, the knickknacks, but let the supernatural beliefs wither and fade. The example of this that first comes to mind is Reform Judaism. Most American Jews get what they like out of Judaism—the ceremonies, the holidays, the sense of belonging, multi-generational connections, opportunities for charity—and yet they have jettisoned the supernatural beliefs. Many liberal Episcopalian congregations, too, are in this vein.

I wonder how many other christians could be as intellectually honest in such an endeavor.
Nothing exists but you. And you are but a thought.
