Unreasonable faith asks the following question: Who would Jesus Bomb? His answer: everyone! Although I agree with him that most fundamentalists are simply aching for Armageddon, I can't blindly assert that they would seek to annihilate the rest of us. Take, for example, the Branch Davidians. If you don't remember these guys, they were the loony group that built a huge compound in Waco Texas that was eventua ...

I'd be a bad Canadian if I didn't try and encourage all of you Canuck fans to get off your asses and take part in the letter writing campaign to convince Ottawa to allow atheist ads on their buses. As our nation's capital, it's their obligation to see that all minorities are represented equally. I don't give a shit if they are worried about the ads offending people; you cannot have a democracy and a right t ...

the easiest way to tell if someone is lying is to look at their eyes. Looking down and to the right (your left) is usually an indication that they are not genuinely remembering something. Try and use this trick to see if you can spot the truth from the lie. I'm not a spy, but there are a few tricks I've learned from watching interrogation tactics over the years that leads me to believe that most of what Bri ...

The atheists in Foxholes seem to be the guys that are busiest thinking and pondering about life rather than praying for deliverance. ...

Here's a site that has my interest: LOLTheism, which aims to poke fun at religion using the LOLcats template of humor. It works pretty damn well. I humbly offer to you their latest entry: The best caption has to be that they'll steal anything that isn't nailed down ...

I get the occasional nutjob letter telling me that I have to let Jesus in or my family might get a cosmic bitchslap from God, but PZ Myers is on a whole other level. Here are the highlights of the latest insanity in an inbox: I have Discovered that if you lay perfectly level on a firm mattress,with no pillow. Then relax and let gravity push you flat. Do this for 3 hours day/night...Take painkillers if you h ...

I've written several times about why Catholics need to abandon their institution, especially with all of the shit that the current Pope keeps pulling. Forget the terribly offensive and ignoble acts of pardoning a Holocaust denier, or quoting a 14th century Byzantine Emperor hate speech. These are small potatoes compared to his edict to cover up child abuse scandals at all cost, and now even his trusted Card ...

Ok, I couldn't hold off until Sunday. As it turns out, a fan of the show wrote me in, and her letter was so honest, open and inviting that I could not help but record a radio show, even though it's now 3 am. I wanted to annouce my big plans, the details of my upcoming book, and a new concept: patronage. I invite you to listen, and share your thoughts with me! ...

The quest for youth, beauty and long life makes freaks out of people. Chief among these "insane ones" is Suzanne Somers, who takes a whopping 60 fucking pills every day to try and stay young. That's not including her Estrogen and Progesterone cream that she applies, as well as her daily vaginal injections. Yes, that's right folks, she pokes her own vagina with hormones in the hopes of living forever. She al ...

I get frustrated once in a while when I meet someone who has a limited understanding of evolution, but it's a whole other bag if you live somewhere that actually dismisses it! That's why a small fledgling group called The Southern Skeptical Society is trying to organize to help fight the irrational tendencies of anything south of the Mason-Dixon line. If any of you are there or know someone who is, then vis ...
