A Final Blog Post and Call to Arms
Dear Faithless Readers,
As was obvious by my absence, I have drifted away from my blog. The horrific realities of our current political state have supplanted my religious aversion and activism. While I'll forever hold my atheist and anti-theism position, it pales in comparison to the political threat at hand. Therefore, for the foreseeable future I bid you all adieu, and implore you to keep resisting both religious incursions into our freedom, and the destruction of our nation by oligarchs and traitors from within.
Thank you for your readership, your comments, your insights and friendships.
I leave you with this one last thought:
“A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly. But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself.
For the traitor appears not a traitor; he speaks in accents familiar to his victims, and he wears their face and their arguments, he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men. He rots the soul of a nation, he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of the city, he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist. A murderer is less to fear.”
- Cicero, Roman Statesman 42 CE
Your faithless servant,
Dromedary Hump

PLEASE READ: Love it /hate it feel free to comment on it. Smart phone/ Iphones don't interface well with "blogspot", please..use your computer. Comments containing bad religious poems (they're all bad, trust me), your announcement of your engagement to Jesus (yeah,I've seen 'em), mindless religious babble, your made up version of Christian doctrine, and death threats are going to be laughed at and deleted. Thanks! Hump
I feel much the same way, atheists of the progressive/liberal variety need to make common cause with the liberal Christians, etc.
ReplyDeleteFair thee well Hump. Well met sir, well met. Always a pleasure, and never ever a disappointment.
ReplyDeleteYou have been a fearless and formidable opponent to religious stupidity, I wish you well fighting the political absurdity that has spread across your nation like the plague.
ReplyDeleteI will miss your wisdom and excellent writing. I wish the very best to you and your dear family.
ReplyDeleteGood luck in all your future endeavors. Your blog has always brought a smile to my atheist face. Let's hope common sense and critical thinking survive the crazy wave America is riding on. From Canada, "EH."
ReplyDeleteWhen I discovered your blog, it was if for the first time, I had a friend who thought as I did! It was amazing with my religious upbringing and teachings that never ever took hold, you were intelligent and put your words out there for like minded people. Seriously, you were my connection to the reality in which we live. Love, intelligence, and connections, the things that help us grow and be whole. Thank you for the exchange of thoughts, thank you for your writing and honesty. You will be missed but never forgotten. Love and best wishes from a friend.

I have missed you, but I always knew you'd be back ... and now you won't!
ReplyDeleteI have enjoyed your wit, your wisdom, your occasional acerbity.
I wish you well in whatever you may undertake in the future.
Regards...
Bernard Speight
This must mean you're RUNNING FOR OFFICE! I'll tell all my family to vote for you!
ReplyDeleteFarewell Bart,
ReplyDeleteAs you have stated, times and priorities have and will always change. I have enjoyed your insights since the MSN chat\Iron Chariots\Pet Rescue days.
Stay well and continue to fight the good fight, especially now that we have the most unfit POTUS 45.
Best Regards

P.S. If I ever win the Powerball Grand Prize, I still intend to invite you (and immediate family, all expenses paid) to Seattle to dine at the Space Needle. Just make sure I have a means to contact you :)
It's been an absolute pleasure having a connection to a free-thinker in the US. Thank you for sharing your insights and thoughts.
ReplyDeleteI wish you all the best in your future endeavours, Bart.
Dearest Hump... your farewell post has made me feel quite emotional, something I didn't expect, but there it is. The line that keeps me going is: "Therefore, for the foreseeable future..." My blog hewdge has been silent because of ill-health, a cancer diagnosis but I'm now free of the pesky tumour. I will never give in. The insanity called organised religion, and those creatures now running the Banana Republic of the United States, will never prevail
ReplyDeleteWhen Christopher Hitchens died, it was though a great light went out. Now there are so few voices in the wilderness willing to speak up and speak out. You are one of them. Everywhere around the world, blasphemy laws are tightening (although 'bless' Denmark for repealing theirs recently). We need you. I do hope the Hump can come through the desert of blogging silence. As we all know, Camels are extraordinarily resilient creatures..
I feel a real connection to this blog and its readers, a balm for the anxiety I try to deal with each day since the election. Now what? Here come the tears.
ReplyDeleteThank you all for your kind words of support.
ReplyDeleteIt has been my privilege to have shared my thoughts with my like thinking friends and readers.
I wish you all good health, strength, and the determination to keep up the good fight...both secular and political.
Yours in reason,
Bart
Dromedary Hump.
Wow. I simply can't think of anything to add to the words of the other commenters. Yes, I've looked here every morning for the past many, many months, and will sorely miss the occasional burst of wisdom from the Hump. Farewell, and fare well.
ReplyDeleteWhat the fuck, you got dumped from fb for a month? For what, do they even say?
ReplyDeleteDenis! LOl..yeah. evidently the shit I laid on some red neck trump supporting racist twit woman was not well rec'd by facebook. email me so I ca have your email on file:
ReplyDeleteatheistcamelchronicles@msn.com
What section of FB's terms of service did you violate? Selling ammo? Lots of people sell ammo on there. Did you tell some granny that you were comin for her again?
ReplyDeleteDenis
Den!s,
ReplyDeleteHeheh..they showed me my posting on my business page that had the dollar amount etc. evidently you can't literally offer ammo for sale.
BTW..you DO have my email address right? I emailed you yesterday.
Bob Terrace tried to send and email to you but it didn't go through...
ReplyDeleteI just tried sending an email to Bart at atheistcamelchronicles@msn.com and it bounced back as unknown address.
Does anyone know what is going on?
How do we reach him? I used to have another email address but lost it.
- Bob Terrace
Denis...just spoke with Bob. as i suspected..he was spelling my email address incorrectly. :)
ReplyDeleteBart,
ReplyDeleteSomehow I had forgotten you had signed off the blog. Went to read the latest and re-read your sign off. Sad to see it go -- even if more than a year later. About the time you signed off, you had helped inspire me to start my own "Bullshit Blog", which has almost all the anger and none of the practical application. My topics are all over hell. But I have a few about how religion ruins everything. https://kieranr3.wixsite.com/bullshit/kieran-s-blog-united-states-kieran/tag/church%20sign
Thanks for the rants... feels good to go back and re-read.
WONDERFUL Post.thanks for share..more wait .. … online gambling
