Welcome back to another episode of the Good Atheist bonus podcast. This week I have a special guest: a TGA fan from Calgary called Brock Roberts. I invite him to talk about how he became an atheist, why creationism is nonsense, and why young people need to take more control in politics.  I decided to make this [...]

Teach the Controversy

Monday, February 15, 2010

3 Comments

Here’s a great video from Atheist Cartoons showing just how ridiculous the notion of “teach the controversy” really is. If every bullshit controversy was allowed to be part of a school curriculum, there would be no end to the nonsense kids would be exposed to. If you want to try and teach your kids the [...]

Smithsonian gives shitty creationist movie the boot

Wednesday, December 30, 2009

The more evidence we gather showing the truth about evolution, the more vitriolic creationists get. Recently they tried to sneak a shitty “documentary” called Darwin’s Dilemma into the Smithsonian’s IMAX theater, but they were smacked down when the California Science Center used a special clause in the contract to cancel their engagement. The Discovery Institute [...]

Welcome back to another episode of TGA’s Bonus podcast. This week, Ryan and I discuss the rise of creationism around the world, the genetic component of homosexuality, and why my cheesy radio voice is awesome! It’s an extra long episode to make up for our spotty updating, so enjoy. Remember, this show is for patrons only, [...]

Majority of Britons want creationism taught in schools (WTF???)

Sunday, October 25, 2009

I’m frustrated this morning. I just finished reading this article, and I have to admit that I’m very disappointed in our Commonwealth Big Brother. A recent poll indicates that more than half of Britons support the teaching of both creationism and evolution in schools. That’s actually more than their American counterparts. You guys are officially [...]

Bill Hicks on Creationism

Tuesday, October 6, 2009

7 Comments

It’s a shame Bill Hicks isn’t around anymore to help us fight the scourge that is creationism. If he thought that shit was bad back in the 90’s, imagine how he would feel about schools including ID in biology class, or removing the age of the universe from science textbooks. He’d be all over that [...]

Who wants to buy a Creationist Theme Park?

If you’ve never heard of Ken Hovind, then allow me to celebrate your ignorance. My friend Jeff practically had an obsession with the guy, and I’ve watched hours of videos of this creationist moron trying to prove that the Earth is only a few thousand years old. Kent had a Creationist Amusement park for a [...]

Don’t read this version of “Origin of Species”

Creationism is alive and well in the United States. Despite their laughingly terrible arguments, backers of “intelligent design” continue to flood education institutions with materials they hope will throw doubt as to the truth of Evolution by means of Natural selection .Their latest tactic is this book; a republication of Darwin’s “Origin of Species” with [...]

Religious wacko facing dismisal sues school district

Tuesday, June 16, 2009

6 Comments

You can’t keep a good psycho down, apparently. John Freshwater is an eighth grade science teacher who denies evolution, used a high voltage lab tool in class to burn crosses on the arms of students, and told them that homosexuals are evil sinners. The district first suspended him after hearing the allegations, and announced last [...]
