Dear believers, we would like to introduce you to some important aspects of this website's policy. We never had intention offend your religious feelings. In our critical examination of the Bible, we are guided exclusively by the knowledge accumulated by our civilization over the past few thousand years, and the ideas of morality that has changed greatly since the creation of the holy scriptures. At the same time, with all our negative attitude towards the church, we do not want to be enemies of those who still believes. We hope dearly that over time, if the you develop an interest to understanding the real structure of the world, you will be able to look at these things from the point of view of reason and common sense, and not being guided just by one old book written by ancient ignoramuses.

If we need to be labeled, we are atheists. However, this site is not dedicated to atheism as such. Our attitude to the world around us and our interaction with it are not defined by the words "I believe" - "I don't believe" in God. Rather, these are combinations of the words "I know" - "I don't know" and "I think" - "I don't think". In general, being in any group of people has negative consequences even if this group can be characterized as positive. Belonging to atheists automatically gives grounds for believers to declare that we are, they say, just another religion with other gods and objects of worship. Our god is knowledge and technical progress, and we pray to dedication, well, or something like that.
Another problem with atheism is that it does not deny faith as such, but only faith in the supernatural. The need to believe in something is associated with the danger of ending up in the ranks of nihilists, who are not considered very good company.

If people are hit over the head with a stick every time they express a thought that displeases the regime, they’ll eventually stop voicing such thoughts. But if the beatings go on long enough, they’ll stop generating those thoughts altogether. In Russia, this beating has gone on for centuries. The capacity to think has been thoroughly beaten out of the Russian population.
In place of forming their own thoughts, Russians now memorize sounds emitted by the television so they can repeat them later if needed. A media diet like this is prone to severe brain damage — which may explain why so many russians obediently lay their lives to the feet of their mad dictator.

It’s the most naïve of questions—posed only by those who have no idea what it means to be Russian. Let’s illustrate the situation with an analogy. Parachuting will do. Specifically, mass parachuting.
For a while, everyone was flying somewhere. It even looked like the pilots knew where this massive hunk of machinery was supposed to land. In the aisles, charming flight attendants offered drinks. Passengers cheerfully toasted to Russia and a brighter future. Those who weren’t offered drinks had brought their own anyway.
