(RNS) Hemant Mehta doesnt want a president who thinks evolution is a hoax.
I dont want a president who couldnt even explain evolution. I dont want a president who cant tell fact from fiction and seems to believe anything someone tells him on Twitter, Mehta says in a recent You Tube video that has garnered a lot of attention in atheist corners.
If I wanted to hear people whose best evidence for their belief is, Well, some people have said, then Id go to church.
So, Mehta, best known as The Friendly Atheist on his popular blog, will vote for Hillary Clinton and he spends more than seven minutes trying to persuade other atheists to do the same because, he believes, she a lifelong Methodist is the only candidate who shares their core values of separation of church and state, LGBT equality and science-based education.

(2,505 posts)I'm not one of the "some". In case I didn't make it clear.
You know what? i like model trains. I have an HO scale layout. Yeah, I do.
But, I hear that some model train hobbyists have problems with both Clinton and Trump.
Sorry, no offense to the poster (I mean that). But my reaction is ONLY to the article.
I'm going to repeat that above sentence: my statement/anger is not aimed at the OP nor anyone on DU. I must be 100% clear about this

Don't ask me how these so-called "atheist" gun worshipers reconcile civil war with atheism.
