More than 800 people have paid as much as $200,000 apiece to reserve seats on commercial flights into space, some of which are expected to launch, at long last, within a year. Space-travel agents are being trained; space suits are being designed for sex appeal as much as for utility; the founder of the Budget hotel chain is developing pods for short- and long-term stays in Earth’s orbit and beyond. Over beers one night, a former high-ranking NASA official, now employed by Sir Richard Branson of the Virgin transportation conglomerate, put it plainly: ‘We happen to be alive at the moment when humanity starts leaving the planet.’

My reaction to Pope Francis saying atheists are “redeemed”

Much has been made the past few days in regards to Pope Francis declaring that “good” non-believers - including [gasp] atheists - can be “redeemed”.

My first reaction was along the lines of “Um, thanks… ?”

But then I said to myself “self, wait a minute.” (Get ready for a mini-rant.)

Does Pope Francis - admittedly more progressive and “liberal” than Ratz (though that isn’t saying much) - and all those who are hailing this as progress in the church’s teachings [though this has been the teaching since I was forced to be read the Catechism] and as a shining example of how “good” Catholics and Christians can be, understand that those who identify as atheists  agnostics, or non-believers neither want or need this so called “redemption”?
Ask yourself “self, if someone does not believe in the existence of an afterlife or in a heaven need to be redeemed?” The answer is simple, no. 

So, after a brief discussion with myself, my current reaction is “Um, thanks but no thanks Francis.”
