Now adult daily laugh time is down to 5 minutes or less in many countries. This is one of the worst aspects of 'modern life'. Laugh yourself healthy. We all know that laughter makes us feel good.

I am mad as hell and I'm not going to take it anymore! We have so many problems in this country. I am disgusted by the fake liberals and conservatives with double standards.

Many others, however, have escaped the oppression of such delusions, and live happy and upstanding lives free of superstition. African Americans for Humanism (AAH) exists to bring these secular hum …
