Pink Swastika author Scott Lively charged with crimes against humanity

If you don't know who Scott Lively is, he's the monster who authored The Pink Swastika, a book I've derided in the past for its pseudo-historical claim that Nazis were a secret gay organization intent on destroying heterosexuality. It ranks about as high as The Protocols of the Elders of Zion in terms of historical verisimilitude. In March of 2009, Scott and a posse of other Evangelical Christians traveled ...

This woman is in serious danger

A few months ago I wrote about a major scam called "Advanced Cell Training". As the bullshit name implies, this pseudo-scientific claptrap purports to heal without the use of antibiotics or other medicine. While the specifics of this escape me (since I refuse to give these scammers even one penny), there is no doubt that encouraging people with serious illnesses - like Lyme Disease - that antibiotics are no ...

The banana is back, this time to offend gay people.

Video streaming by Ustream Not sure if you'll be able to stomach the whole thing, so I'll give you the gist of this man's argument (and I'll let you decide what he's secretly obsessed about) 1. The anus is exit only 2. Women use gadgets like bananas and other produce to simulate the male penis You should just watch this guy doing the pumping motion when talking about lesbian sex. Sure sounds to me like he's ...

I’m in a bit of a pickle right now…

It's hard to believe that after all these years, a mundane technical problem can effectively shut down your operation pretty effectively. My work computer, which has been getting on in age, recently lost the use of its final USB port. This being a laptop, I've been profoundly frustrated by the fact that I have no way to actually interface with my system to allow me to record my shows. In a sense, I am dead ...

Is this guy for real?

I hope by now all of you are familiar with my stance on Poe's Law; if you are attempting to parody Christians but cannot give any indication that you don't actually believe this stuff, then you might as well not be a parody at all. I call this 'Jake's Law', so as to avoid any further confusion on this issue. The following video is exactly the kind of thing 'Jake's Law' was invented for. While the rest of yo ...

Please take your medication, buddy.

There are a few articles on TGA that invariably attract the kinds of crazy comments that have to be read to be believed. Sometimes you have to spend some time trying to decipher through their insanity, and attempt to understand exactly what these deranged individuals are trying to communicate. This recent comment seems especially difficult to make out (which I haven't altered in any way): Clearly The Scienc ...

String of atheism signs vandalized, no real action taken by officials

I know many of you out there think making holiday displays and fighting to have them displayed is a waste of time, but with the recent strings of vandalism against our property, not to mention the ridiculous reasons given by city officials for rejecting these banners helps highlight the fact that atheists are still a vilified and abused minority. This echos a report by the International Humanist and Ethical ...

Catholic Priest blames women for bringing violence on themselves

Do I even need to continue to speak out against religion? Seems like these days, these guys are doing a better job convincing Catholics to leave in droves than I ever could, and all they need to do is speak openly about their shitty beliefs. Take the words of Father Piero Corsi, who during his Christmas address to his Italian congregation thought it would be the perfect time to accuse abused women of bringi ...
