This week, Ryan and I take your questions for a very special mailbag episode. We cover everything from abortion to evolution, to why we hate Indiana Jones and the Crystal skull. If you love the show, this one is a monster at over 1:30 minutes, so you might even need to break it up if [...]

Abortion and the Church of Scientology

Tuesday, June 15, 2010

Oh Scientology, you’re so backwards. Don’t you know religions are supposed to stop abortions, not force them on people? But seriously, watch this video. It’s fucked up. Or if you’re at work or something, here’s the written version.

FFRF talks about their Daily Show experience

Friday, June 11, 2010

When the Daily Show did a segment on the Freedom From Religion Foundation’s quest to stop a Mother Teresa stamp from being issued by the US Post Office, I figured that us atheists would end up looking not so hot as a result. After all, talking shit about MT nowadays is the equivalent of ripping [...]

This week on the bonus show: Why Draw Mohammed Day was necessary, and how the person responsible has since washed their hands of it, and how the Catholic Church is more interested in excommunicating people for allowing abortions than in hunting down child rapists. Remember, this is the bonus show, and if you love our regular [...]

Nun gets excommunicated for allowing abortion

Thursday, May 20, 2010

Here’s the deal: you can forcibly rape hundreds of children, beat them, mistreat them, and fuck them up for the rest of their lives and keep your job, but if you so much as help one woman have an abortion, you’re automatically excommunicated. It’s a harsh lesson Sister Margret McBride recently learned when she was [...]

Pope calls Gay Marriage “Insidious and Dangerous”

Friday, May 14, 2010

2 Comments

In an attempt to try and divert attention away from the fact that he knowingly conspired to protect child rapists from prosecution, Pope Benedict XVI called out abortion and same sex marriage as being “insidious and dangerous”, two adjectives which actually effectively describe his OWN organization (but of course that’s a different rant altogether). He came [...]

Vatican upset over Foreign Office memo

Monday, April 26, 2010

11 Comments

A couple days ago, a memo circulated around the Foreign Office suggesting some “ideas” for Pope Benedict XVI’s visit to England. The list included the Pope launching his own condom to opening an abortion clinic. Like any memo that begins with the words “should not be shared externally”, it quickly escaped the confines of the [...]

Oklahoma continues fight against pregnant women

Thursday, April 22, 2010

The abortion issue simply will not go away in the US. Every fucking day there’s some piece of legislation intended to severely limit the availability of abortions, or perhaps just make the process so humiliating and disheartening that women chose to keep their pregnancies. Take Oklahoma, where a proposed bill would withhold tests showing foetal defects, and would require women to answer private [...]

Evangelical Bible scholar forced to resign for views on Evolution

Sunday, April 18, 2010

4 Comments

Remember Ben Stein’s abortion of a movie, “Expelled: No Intelligence Allowed”, and how he claimed that the scientific establishment attacks anyone who disagrees with Evolution? Well, apparently, that sword cuts both ways; Conservative Evangelical Bible scholar Dr. Bruce Waltke caused a firestorm of controversy when he had the “audacity” to side with the evidence for [...]

World Nut Daily does it again

Thursday, April 15, 2010

Do you not rejoice at the endless display of insanity that is the World Net Daily? I am utterly in awe of this website’s ability to draw such a huge audience, while simultaneously being one of the ugliest, more poorly presented idiot “news” sites on the planet. It looks like the late 90’s puked all [...]
