Bloggers: Please read, post, then go sign up! (and don't forget to pass this on). Hyscience has already "signed up."

We, the undersigned, agree that:

Liberty to express and discuss any issue including religion is a basic principle of a free society.
Accepting free speech is an essential quality of free people.
Fear of free speech is the mark of one whose beliefs are weak or based on force.

We further desire to express:
Our solidarity with those who suffer for expressing opinion.
Our contempt for those in office who fail to stand up for freedom of speech.
Our contempt for those whose support for free speech is determined by self interest.
Our contempt for those whose beliefs must be supported by silencing others.

And finally, because we so despise those who would use violence to silence others, and because we laugh at the thought that their voices speak for any power beyond their own weakness and fear of open talk, we hereby:
Request, invite, and laugh at the issue of a FATWA, CURSE, SPELL, or any other fancied ignominy that any enemy of human liberty may choose to place upon us.

Go sign up and then pass this on!!!
