There's so much that's sad with this video it's hard to pinpoint which part stands out, so instead I chose the quotes I felt best represent her special brand of brainwashing: "Me wearing Hijab is my relationship between me and Allah" It's always a good sign when your deity has an inherent distrust of the female form. Better cover it up, since it's the only way you can be guaranteed someone won't molest and ...

Actually, the odds of the Titanic hitting that iceberg were astronomically small; as it turns out, it was a series of poor decisions by the crew that led to the disaster. Had the ship actually crashed head on into the iceberg, it would have survived the impact. Ironically, it was their attempt to navigate around it that ultimately led to the ship sinking. So, if I can use their stupid metaphor against them ...

What do you do when Kirk Cameron is making accusations that he can't substantiate? Why, you ridicule him, of course! ...

I love these kinds of stories. They help give courage to young people who want to fight for what they believe in. Nahkoura Mahnassi has taken a stand: her school is planning on holding their graduating ceremony in the controversial New Birth Missionary Baptist Church. You might remember that its pastor, Eddie Long, had been accused of sexual misconduct with 4 young men (which was later settled out of court. ...

You hear that fellas? You're the "high priest" of the household, which means you can do whatever the fuck you want. Wow, what a great deal, and all because I have a penis! If you're a misogynistic, gullible idiot who would rather give your money to a bunch of scammers than pay your bills and take care of your family, then the Church has room for you, my friend! (via American Jesus) ...

When Dan Savage started his "It Gets Better" Campaign in September of 2010, he hoped it would let bullied teens know life improves over time, and the bullying they experience in school is only temporary. For the most part, these videos are meant to speak to young gays and lesbians in high school, where the majority of bullying takes place. One serious exception to this rule is Brigham Young University, one ...

How to spot a poorly written article about atheism. (1) The words "fundamentalist" or "militant" are used in the article without any real justification (i.e., do these words have the same meaning for our religious counter-parts, I wonder) (2) "Atheistic" regimes are blamed for the worst human rights offenses (3) We're told that secularism is an imposition rather than redressing a clear inequity. It's clear ...

Honestly, this is a silly question. It would be more accurate to ask "can we still be a moral society despite religion's influence?" Let's remember for a moment the world is still made a more miserable place because of sectarian infighting. How many regions of the world are currently engaged in immoral acts of violence against one another specifically in the name of their religion? When the Catholic bishop ...

Oh religious people: you can never be sure if they love religion or secretly despise it. Why else would they resort to calling our free-thought movement "a religion" if not to criticize it? Obviously they recognize the fact that by definition, a religion is a creepy organization intent on pushing through their wacky agenda. While I agree this is a definite aspect of all religion, conflating our lack of beli ...
