Hey look, it's an atheist who converted to religion. All it took for him was: a) To read one book about atheism b) To think that one book would give him the needed skepticism to reject the joke that is C.S. Lewis' "Mere Christianity" c) To stop thinking critically immediately afterwards This guy was seduced by the morality argument? What, the 'feelings' you had couldn't be explained WITHOUT referring to a s ...

American Evangelical scumbag and radio host Bryan Fisher demonstrates just how much ugly hate he has in his heart by congratulating Uganda on their "Kill the Gays" Bill. Way to illustrate just how fucking backwards this all is, pal. via Christian Nightmares ...

For some odd reason, I love the idea that there are religious believers out there who try to convert atheists back to religion. I can't imagine a more pointless exercise. They really think there must be some magical argument to 'win us' back to the fold. They can't understand our decision not to believe in God is the result of years of slow and gradual change, ultimately leading to the conclusion that the p ...

Do you have van full of drugs, immigrants, and a bunch of other words old racist people are afraid of? Want to cross the border in less time than it takes to pour yourself a nice mug of beer? Yank out your Bible and start proselytizing like your fucking life depended on it. In no time, your obnoxious preaching will cloud the judgement of law enforcement officials overcome by the intense desire to get as far ...

It's not enough that religious folks are always shoving their religion down our throats; they also now want to enforce the 'crime' of not believing in their invisible friend. If you can believe this (and trust me, I'm still in shock), the state of Kentucky has effectively declared war on non-believers, threatening jail time for anyone who fails to "recognize the primacy of the Christian God": In Kentucky, a ...

This week, my special guest is Vyckie Garrisson, founder of "No Longer Quivering", a movement aimed at helping victims of spiritual abuse. She joins me to talk about her past in the movement, the challenges facing women in the atheism scene, and so much more. ...

If there's a time in one's life fraught with tragedy, it's probably the hormone saturated period in our lives known as our 'teen years'. How many of us have done something so incredibly stupid it still haunts us today? Tyler Alred will need to live with the fact his drunk driving took the life of his friend and passenger, 16-year-old John Luke Dum. He'll also need to spend the next decade going to church re ...

You all know by now that the educational system in Louisiana is rapidly deteriorating thanks to Governor Bobby Jindal and his relentless crusade to institute voucher programs that end up benefiting religiously run schools. He may have come out recently begging for the GOP not to become the 'stupid party', but he's actively working to ensure his constituents are ever more ignorant about the real world. The p ...

The bravery of religion is yet again on display, this time in Pakistan where a man has been sentence to death for supposedly insulting the prophet Mohammed. There's a familiar pattern that arises in these parts: the predominately Muslim population has a few altercations with other religious groups that are Christian, and suddenly the lone person is accused of blasphemy and is usually beaten, followed by the ...

So, what's more embarrassing: not being able to properly answer the challenges of a 11 year old, or needing to try and bully your way out of answering his question? Here is Hovind's argument in a nutshell: 1) If you don't know everything, you can't be sure of anything 2) God knows everything and tells me things 3) Therefore all true knowledge comes from God. The kid's response cuts through his second and th ...
