Pray for me, Doc!

I received a few emails this morning asking me to discuss this BBCNews article. Some doctors in Britain are worried that spiritual issues aren't being addressed, and that care is suffering as a result. They are demanding that the staff be given the right to talk about religion, as well as allow them to offer prayers to patients. The problem here is that there is always a fine line between talking about reli ...

Kirk Cameron’s “crocoduck”. Infallible proof that evolution is wrong!

In case you've never seen this video, I wanted to post it up to remind everyone just how ignorant and stupid Kirk Cameron really is. I don't want to be mean about it, but this asshole is trying to get people to buy his special re-print of Charles Darwin's "Origin of Species" book which includes a 50 page intro that says, in a nutshell, that evolution is wrong. I think we can safely assume from this video th ...

It’s hard to be a bigot these days!

It must be a tough time for homophobes. It's become dangerously unpopular to hold "controversial" views on homosexuality these days. The aging baby boomers must be absolutely terrified that we've all gone insane or something by allowing equal rights to gays and lesbians. Why in their day, you kept those people quiet, afraid, and repressed! If one of your family members was gay, you would keep that shit a se ...

Jordanian poet goes to jail for blasphemy

If you live in a country without bullshit blasphemy laws, consider yourself fortunate. Islam Samhan, a 27 year old Jordanian, is facing up to a year in jail and a 10,000 dollar fine for his poetry book. The government claims he was blasphemous, but Islam contends that the real reason he is being prosecuted is because of his unkind words about Arab rulers. Clearly, these guys don't see a difference between s ...

CNN interviews preacher who performed a gay exorcism

You know, I've personally always been fascinated by the false charity some of these churches offer. They pretend to welcome everyone in their fold, but the reality is that if you don't follow their instructions to the letter, you are deemed to be a sinner and unworthy of salvation. Her own words: "We welcome anyone in our church, all's we're saying that we do not like the lifestyle of a man with a man, or a ...

Now that’s a commercial

I like how in this fake commercial for Scientology, Hubbard's book "Dianetics" is literally shooting out of a toilet. It won't win any awards for subtlety, but I dig it. ...

Phil Kidd is a gentleman

Have you ever woken up in a cold sweat, terrified that a woman's business suit was the tool of Satan, and that society would inveriably fall into chaos if we didn't put our women in line? If you have, then you needn't worry; you aren't the only sexist in the world. In fact, you're part of a special club of "gentleman" that include this man, Dr. Phil Kidd. He's an evangelical minister with a prescription for ...

On the agenda today is Kirk Cameron`s special edition of the Origin of Species, and we`ll also be talking about the controversial idea of banning the burkha. It`s bound to stir up lots of emotions, so be sure to give us your feedback! Remember that if you love the show, we also record ...

I love this guy`s arrogance

Man, I love people that are arrogant and flaunt it. Maybe that`s also why I love Hitchens, I don`t know; it could just be his general attitude. I personally find it delightful watching obviously intelligent people ranting about the stupidity of religious belief. Who doesn`t? ...

Glen Beck`s idiotic special on Biblical prophesy

What was Glen Beck doing before he started crying like a bitch on national television? Well, he was busy inviting crazy preachers to talk about End Days on CNN. What fun! In this clip, Glen Beck is asking pastor John Hagee to confirm or deny some of the claims of the return of the 12th Imam, and to try to correlate it with Christian's favorite fictional character after Jesus: The Anti-Christ. Presumably I t ...
