1 is too long.
2 is implying that hope is a bad thing. I hope for many things. I hope for progressives to win all future elections for example. I prefer the definition of faith that goes "claiming to know something that you have no evidence for."
3 I like because prayer is useless.
4 I like because I have personally witnessed that level of stupidity from a great many theists.

I am voting 3 because prayer is being substituted for actual medicine even in supposedly modern countries.

years ago said something about what he had read in the bible. I asked him which bible and he said "What do you mean, which bible? The American bible."

And as a non-sequitur, but closely related, I hear Ric Santorum thinks separation of church and state is a plot invented by Communists.

One reason is because I thought it was appropriate, but the other reason is because it had no votes and looked lonely.
