Earn and display your PhD In Heresy diploma, wear our heretical apparel in public, and the faithful will question you. These actions present an opportunity for you to explain why science, reason and logic are necessary to overcome superstition and myth. We want millions of walking-talking-atheist billboards on the street, available for discussion. The religious might talk 'about' billboards, but they will talk 'to' people.

Logidea University Raison d'être:
You may be wondering what you might do to make a difference as an individual? We believe that in making yourself publicly noticeable through non-aggressive signs of heresy, the faithful will approach you, and question you. These actions present an opportunity for you to explain why science, reason and logic are necessary to overcome superstition and myth. Whether you earn and display your own PhD In Heresy diploma, or wear heretical apparel, people will want to know why you are unafraid of god's wrath. That is your opportunity to change the world, one person at a time. I try to avoid telling them what I think of their religion, and instead, ask them politely what topics they believe separate us beyond faith. Evolution, the universe, wherever they go, I ask about the most recent book on the topic they care to discuss. It is more effective if you don't attempt to change their mind, nor refute their religious dogma. Often, they come to the realization that they had no idea the depth of knowledge we have accrued over the past few decades. Frequently, they take down information regarding recommended authors and books, and not infrequently, maintain contact. This changes lives, and therefor our culture. Take this action, or other action, but take action. Richard McCargar - Dean of the College of Heresy - Logidea University The Logidea University Store: Atheist & AntiTheist Apparel: small selection below: The Logidea University Atheist & AntiTheist Apparel collection may be found here.
"In order to appeal to all classes and characters, Disbelief has in our time adopted a light, pleasant, frivolous style, with the aim of diverting the imagination, seducing the mind, and corrupting the heart. It puts on an air of profundity and sublimity and professes to rise to the first principles of knowledge so as to throw off a yoke it considers shameful to mankind and to the Deity itself. Now it declaims with fury against religious zeal yet preaches toleration for all; now it offers a brew of serious ideas with badinage, of pure moral advice with obscenities, of great truths with great errors, of faith with blasphemy. In a word, it undertakes to reconcile Jesus Christ with Belial" ---Beaumont, Archbishop of Paris (1762) In 1860 (the year after The Origin of Species appeared), Bishop Wilberforce exclaimed against Darwinism: "The principle of natural selection is absolutely incompatible with the word of god." The Dean of Chichester, in a sermon delivered at Oxford said "those who refuse to accept the history of the creation of our first parents according to its obvious literal intention, and are for substituting the modern dream of evolution in its place, cause the entire scheme of man's salvation to collapse". Carlyle called Darwin an "apostle of dirt-worship." We couldn't agree more. Natural Selection IS incompatible with the Dogma of Bronze Age Idiots! Now it is Your turn!When you take your ten question exam to gain your PhD In Heresy™ or test to become a Doctor Of Disbelief™, you will earn your degree and receive a document that is a testament to your desire for knowledge, and your unwavering commitment to reason and logic. You are not merely a skeptic who demands evidence. You are a Heretic!
If you can't say something nice, say something provocative!Science, Reason and Logic prevail over superstition and myth! Atheists and Atheism are on the rise. Help by wearing an atheist t-shirt or cap and causing the faithful to question you. Respond with the scientific method, reason and logic.
