Sam is continuing his book tour, and as is typical with this kind of affair, he's drawn a of number criticisms for his strong stance against religious beliefs. While his critics lament the fact that he is so antithetical to religious beliefs, they never seem to be able to prove him wrong. Instead, he's portrayed as just another kind of fundamentalist by the mainstream media. The latest "article written like ...

Oh Conservapedia, you're the gift that keeps on giving. We recently donated some money to Wikipedia, the reality-based crowd sourced encyclopedia, so I suppose it's only 'fair and balanced' we give its right wing la-la land equivalent some love too in the form of a post. On its front page next to such fine articles as "Is Barack Hussein Obama a president, or is he a dictator?" and "More than a thousand scie ...

Evangelical chaplains in the military are suffering! They're worried the eventual repeal of "don't ask, don't tell" will jeopardize their ability to openly discriminate against gays and lesbians who might come to them seeking spiritual help. Now while I generally feel homosexuality and religion mix about as well as oil and water, you can't deny the fact statistically, gays are actually more religious than t ...

If you're black and gay, you have my pity. I can't imagine a minority group so vehemently opposed to homosexuality. They often make the sermons of white Alabama preachers seem almost tame by comparison. It's no secret as a group, African Americans are more religiously conservative than the average American. Since many believe in the literal word of God, it doesn't leave a lot of room for tolerance and under ...

For the first time in the history of unbelief, atheists are starting to have a voice. Recently, a coalition of secularists and atheists met with the Obama Administration to talk about three pressing issues: the death of kids due to "faith healing", the increased presence of religion in the military, and faith based initiatives. Although details of what was discussed are piecemeal at best, that didn't stop r ...

Best part of the video: when he called Barack Obama "Super Jesus". ...

Ignorance of the law is not an adequate defense. If you don't believe me, try debating a parking ticket in Montreal (which has possibly the most convoluted and confusing parking laws in the world). This important lesson appears to be lost on the 10 Baptists that were jailed a few days ago for allegedly trying to sneak 33 kids across the Haitian border to the Dominican Republic. Now, trapped in jail and feel ...

Here's an interesting article calling on President Obama to revise the terms of funding for World Vision, the largest Christian charity in the world, for its failure to abide by the First Amendment (that pesky separation of church and state portion of your Constitution). You see, since they receive approximately 250 million dollars from federal monies, the organization would technically be required to allow ...

The Christian Anti-Defamation League has just released their "Top 10 Instances of Christian Bashing" for 2009, and as you'll see, most of them are centered around homosexuality: 10. Pro-life Pastor Reverend Walter Hoye of Oakland, CA was jailed for exercising peaceful, pro-life speech. 9. Rev. Fred Winters was murdered while preaching in his pulpit in Maryville, Illinois. 8. HBO's program "Curb Your Enthusi ...

I should probably be resigned to the fact Chuck Norris is insane and leave it at that. Unfortunately, his cult like status in society, helped largely by "Chuck Norris facts" which were an Internet phenomenon, seems to allow him a soapbox to preach his insane gospel. His latest tirade is directed against President Obama, who he feels has failed to put enough emphasis on Jesus during Christmas time. It seems ...
