Tony Blair is launching a foundation to promote religious faith in public life. Blair's Faith Foundation is not specific on which religious doctrine the faith should be in, as long, as long as actual religious faith is involved. Because it would be a shame if the big decisions that affect millions of lives were made on some lesser basis, such as, for example, reason or empirical observation.

Please someone set up an Atheist Foundation to run along side it. I'll donate.

An Atheist Foundation sounds a bit like an Anarchist Party. A Humanist Foundation or Secular Foundation I'd buy, though.

Yeah, ok, I'll concede that would be more stable, so I'll go with that.
