Times are desperate for Christians in the Netherlands. One in every 6 clergymen is either an atheist or an agnostic, so in an effort not to lose his job, the Rev. Klaas Hendrikse has invented a special form of Christianity that: a. Doesn't believe Jesus existed historically [the Gnostics beat him to it though] b. Doesn't believe in the afterlife [ditto the Jews] c. Doesn't believe a God exists at all [that ...

I'm feeling good this morning. According to Christian apologist Josh McDowell, the web is infested with atheists like me trying to spread their vile message of godlessness and pornography. While I certainly agree with the first part of the accusation, I wish to clarify that while TGA endorses pornography, I still think that there's way too much of it that's anal. What happened to the vagina, guys? And pleas ...

Skip to minute 5 where Piers displays his complete lack of understanding when it comes to atheism (if you want to avoid hearing any more about the Casey Anthony case). "Hey Bill, do you still pray?". Who the fuck writes the questions for this idiot? Piers, do you seriously not get what non-belief is all about, dude? ...

I've written in the past on the dangers of having fetal homicide laws. While originally intended to help prosecute any man whose violent assault causes a still birth. As you might have guessed, the law has yet to actually be used on any guys. Only one dude was ever facing charges, and they were dropped. Meanwhile, hundreds of women have been charged, including a 15 year old whose coke habit is being blamed ...

There are times when I ask myself if I really want to be a part of this "scene". It doesn't happen very often, but when it does, it's usually caused by people acting like a bunch of children. Case in point: the entire atheist blogosphere has been abuzz dominated by Rebecca Watson's "I was hit on in an elevator" story. This non-news got even more attention when she chose a keynote address to call out a fello ...

If you don't remember Kent Hovind, it might be because you've come into the atheism scene a little late. He's currently in jail for failing to pay taxes on a number of his enterprises, including a religiously themed amusement park called "Dinosaur Adventure Playland". This bastion to ignorance features not only depictions of humans and dinosaurs co-existing, but also a replica of the Loch Ness Monster. It's ...

This is just plain weird: convinced of the superiority of their "argument" (mainly that their super-dad made everything so a few white people can enjoy it), they've decided to specifically target Penn Jillette to a debate on evolution. Firstly, they want him to answer their "15 questions evolutionists can't answer", a grab-bag collection of old creationist canards they think has merit. I'll summarize them h ...

I found this hilariously offensive letter to the editor from an Irish newspaper, and I just had to include it. It's a complaint regarding a show called "Liveline" that happened to have featured an atheist upset at a law that was passed in 2009 that would fine blasphemers thousands of dollars for "offending" religious rubes (I admit it's a bit old, but it's totally hilarious): Why in the name of God (oops so ...

Could this guy be more wrong? Here are a couple of choice passages I couldn't help but comment on (as I'm sure most of you will dissect the rest). As crusading atheism is sort of a cause today, it is popular, I don’t want to say among scientists, I mean that’s too general and it isn’t so. Is it ironic for a Christian to use the word "Crusade" when talking about atheism? I sometimes wish these clowns would s ...

Remember Harun Yahya? He's the Turkish creationist that published a book called "The Atlas of Creation", his attempt to "prove" that animals were created spontaneously by his personal God. Most of the pictures in this massive 768 page monstrosity are ripped right off the Internet. One picture of a fly is in fact a metal lure. Yes, he's that fucking incompetent. Harun Yahya is the pseudonym of Adnan Oktar, 5 ...
