The Good Atheist

Nonsense blows

There was a time in our history when our understanding of health was so impoverished that we thought such superstitious nonsense effective in combating the afflictions that ailed us. It’s a sad fact that so recent is that history that we must continue to endure watching the ignorant perform rituals that do the very opposite [...]

I like being a dick, Phil

Phil Plait – Don’t Be A Dick from JREF on Vimeo. First, I’d like to congratulate Phil Plait on choosing a topic that people seem to have strong opinions about. I love a good fight, and I see plenty of reasons to scrap with Phil regarding some of the statements he made during his lecture at [...]

This guy is the real deal

It’s usually pretty hard to tell sometimes whether videos like this are parodies or not, but I have it on good authority that this dude isn’t playing around.

Faith Healers exploit the sick and ignorant

You can always count on religious scumbags to exploit the poor and sick, especially in countries like Kenya where an estimated 2 million people have AIDS. Yeah, you heard right: 2 fucking million people are slowly dying as their bodies are incapable of fighting of even the simplest infections. And with all those desperate family [...]

Yeah, about him being real…

Christians are scary

If you don’t like the violent rhetoric of modern day Christian, then you don’t know the Bible, baby! He hasn’t called you to debate.
