It's hilarious how most Muslims are convinced that their restrictive religious repression of women is somehow intended to protect them. You hear this all the time in Islamic countries; they think we let our women "run around unprotected" while they "bravely" restrict every part of their lives in the misguided belief that it's really all for their own good. The culture of Islam makes women seem like dangerou ...

Sick and tired of children's entertainment that's fun, informational, and secularist? Well, The Flizbins are here, and they promise you "safe" children's programming. Presumably, the stuff that's currently out there for pre-schoolers must all be evil or unsafe. Luckily, their totally inoffensive songs are sure to delight parents and kids alike! You can tell from their stiff, forced dances that something edu ...

Watch the latest video at <a href="http://video.foxnews.com">video.foxnews.com</a>I still can't tell whether or not Bill O'Reilly actually believes that God himself created the moon. Considering he's an opportunist trying to appeal to his geriatric base that thinks an invisible man in the sky made the whole Universe just for them to retire in, I give it a 50/50 chance he's simply full of shit. H ...

It ain't easy being a Christian: sure, they might be the majority (for now), but every other day the faith is challenged by objective reality. While many Christians will scoff at the idea that their religion is in trouble, the truth is that countries like Canada, Sweden, and Australia are quickly shedding their religious coat in favor of a broader "spirituality" that doesn't have to deal with the many incon ...

Before listening to the enlightening sermon of Pastor David Grice, I thought the Wizard of Oz was a whimsical musical featuring a talented cast of actors bringing a classic tale to life. Little did I realize that it's actually a psychotic story of a young murderer and her unwitting accomplices. Yes, the Wizard of Oz is Satanic, and with the help of David's hilarious sermon (he reminds me of a chubbier Will ...

Ever since Conservapedia put up a link to TGA declaring that there was "no such thing as a Good Atheist", we've been getting a lot of great comments in a number of articles. The best one so far has to be from "Bob", who is convinced that not only do we not exist, but that life on earth wouldn't be worth living if it wasn't for his imaginary buddy: I want to know just one thing, if there is NO God, NO afterl ...

A fan - who shall remain anonymous for reasons that will be clear in the email - sent me a letter I thought I would share with the rest of you. I'm not the best at giving advice to people in awkward situation like his, but since this is an atheism site, readers are bound to have opinions that they're only too happy to share. Hi Jake, How do I ask my boss for Friday off to attend the Texas Freethought Conven ...

You can learn a lot from a video. Did you know that all drugs, once your brain is "on them", will resemble a fried egg? I know this for a fact because Rachel Leah Cook smashed someone's house up with a frying pan to prove it. Clearly, lessons abound in the digital format, so I thought it might be nice to extract some lessons of our own from this Christian cartoon courtesy of NuBeat Music (a Christian music ...

If I've learned anything from drug dealers, it's that you should always make sure that people can sample your goods. So with that comforting thought in mind, be sure to sign up now and benefit from a free Bonus Show. This week, I put Ryan through the wringer by asking him select questions from the "teacher's guide" to the crockumentary (I know it's not a word, but what else can I call it?) "God of Wonders". ...

Times are hard in America. Job security is eroding fast, as is the middle class. This puts everyone on edge, which would explain some of the blow-back from fans concerning my opinion that there is something fundamentally broken with the way teachers are unionized in America. Of course, that's not to imply that I want to destroy all the rights workers have managed to harangue from the clutches of the very we ...
