Organized religion is a bot-net.
You are responsible for your own actions.
There is no authority but yourself.
If you think otherwise, you've been hacked.

Bah, the search engine of a true believer would be to type in a random IP address and rely on the hand of God to ensure it's the very one you're looking for.
First link for "atheism" points to Conservapedia, which says:
If you were a comedian, you couldn't come up with something better than that. Are these people really that stupid?
