Funny you should say that. I sent this email to the BBC at the beginning of this month.
02 June 2014
Dear BBC
It's high time there was more open media discussion devoted to the pros and cons of belief in deities on BBC TV. Although, I do appreciate that the ridiculous notion that some imagined words attributed to some imagined deity(s) should be unquestionably obeyed is too silly for words alone, at least we could try more to understand what drives people to believe such nonsense. Brainwashing and indoctrination spring to mind.
Maybe a regular weekly spot on mainstream TV where both sides - theist and atheist - could discuss WHY we still feel the need harbour such inane belief as the holy books would have us believe, instead of being able to take in the alternatives that science, experience and common sense has to offer.
I will gladly offer my services FREE.
Anthony W. Allsop (Genesis)
PS. Maybe if more "thinkers" were to copy this letter (or write something along similar lines) and send the message to the BBC, they might just get the message.

I still want to know why there are many religious TV channels but none for us atheists.
They would rather molest young boys and girls. They're sick individuals disguised as nice people which they most definitely are not.

Why can`t Catholic priests marry. Totaly unatural.
funny!! THe first year I moved into a city apartment, they were beating down ther door like the Gastopo!
Two men said they had materials they wanted to hand over.
Told the (jahova's) just to slide the thing under the door!
I had no intention of opening it.
The next week, another attempt, was made at the back door!!!
He made no other attempt, at any other apartment door, I watched him walk away, and down the fire-escape from the third floor, he passsed at least seven apartments on the way up!
At first I thought maybe the landlord was sending them to my door. So I called the local kingdom hall and reported these two unsolictited incidents, they advised to put up a No Tresspassing Sign, to eliminate the problem, so I did, and they have never returned.

A religious nut knocked at my door one day & when I said I was an atheist he said we get more sense out of them than religious people. ????
No, but there are plenty of programs dedicated to putting out supporting bullshit for religion.

Atheism is seldom mentioned on TV ?????
You mean: I wouldn't mind making a bet that Mr. Farage of UKIP is an atheist??
Question: For us who live on the other side of the ocean, who is Mr. Farage and what is UKIP and why do you want to bet he's an atheist?

Precisely. He was up there long enough.
He was a blogger of his time.

I'd bet my old age pension that Moses carried a hammer & chisel to the mountains.
Seriously speaking. Women are much more susceptible to fairy stories than are men. I mean, they have much more experience of them:
"What time do you call this?"
"Oh, hic! Sorry, but hic! I would've been home hic! earlier but I stopped to help hic! a little old lady start her hic! car."
"Aah, bless you, hun. Can I get you a coffee, you look perished?"
