Here's a site which has my interest: LOLTheism, which pokes 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 they'll steal anything that isn't nailed down ...

I get the occasional nutjob letter telling me 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 have ...

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

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 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 also t ...

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 ...

An interesting editorial from NewScientist.com asking whether or not Ecstasy is safer than peanuts. His answer: hells yes! The amount of deaths due to allergies is much higher than deaths caused as a result of the casual consumption of the drug. Does that mean it isn't dangerous? Well, technically, you could slip and fall and kill yourself while in the shower, but it certainly doesn't mean you shouldn't was ...

If you've ever called yourself an agnostic, then you should head over to the Radical Atheist's blog. He's written an article on how agnosticism is compatible with atheism. Here is a quote from the article: I see no inconsistency in being both agnostic and an atheist. I'm an agnostic in the methods I use to discern truth (small a) and appreciate reality. I'm an atheist in my opinion on theism. I do not cont ...

Anytime someone discovers artifacts underwater, you immediately have a bunch of morons asserting the lost city of Atlantis has been found. That's why an unusual looking image in Google Earth was the perfect excuse for the 'true believers' to make that claim again. Luckily, Skeptico has a simple answer to debunk this stupid claim: ...the image is almost certainly an artifact of the mapping process. The under ...

This weekend was huge for Ryan and I. We started talking about the future of our blogging 'empire' and we've realized there is a great deal of untapped potential in TGA we've largely been ignoring. After all, how the heck can anyone make a living just writing about religion all day, right? Well, it turns out we think we've figured out a way, and this Sunday we'll be recording a special Good Atheist podcast ...

Funniest line in the whole video: "His fighting is anything but orthodox...". Hilarious. ...
