Freethought is a philosophical viewpoint that holds that beliefs should be formed on the basis of science and logic, and should not be influenced by authority, tradition, or any other dogma.


Atheism is the philosophical position that deities do not exist, or that rejects theism. In the broadest sense, it is the absence of belief in the existence of deities.

      “Hi. I did the safe & considerate thing of getting my truck repaired so it would not die as I drove. But I was also thinking I only have two traffic tickets in my life and they are 23 years apart. At our last conversation it sounded like you were a traffic ticket expert. Who is more unsafe?”
