I'm becoming more and more convinced that the irrationality inherent in the religious mindset is incredibly dangerous, to our species and the environment which sustains it.

(I, too, followed you from PZ's site.)

I'll identify as a strong anti-theist. There was an Asimov story which involved a guy dying and being brought before God, upon which he argues that he'll work out how to destroy himself. God tells him that He will just recreate him without that weakness. Guy ponders this for a bit, then tells God that in that case, he'll find out how to destroy Him, instead. God, apparently with a sense of hope and relief, thanks him and leaves him to his task.

I'm not out to kill God, though... the desire to kill something that doesn't exist is meaningless. I'd rather work toward expunging idiotic notions.
