When economic times are rough, Prosperity Gospels flourishes. Prosperity churches preach that faith in God ultimately leads to material wealth for those he favors. The charismatic preachers that espouse this philosophy are usually dressed in fine clothing, despite the fact that in America, members of these types of churches are typically much poorer than other [...]

Before he can become “President of Texas”, Chuck Norris is on an anti-abortion campaign. He regularly blogs for the ultra conservative World Net Daily, and reading his posts is an exercise in both patience and a form of torture in some countries. In his latest opus, Chucky takes on health care reform, lambasting Democrats for trying [...]

I feel weird today, since I’m defending a religious group called “Our Lady of Calvary Abbey”, in Rogersville, NB. You see, they raise a number of dairy cows and chickens, and the radical animal “rights” group PETA is upset by their farming practices. They believe the calves are taken away from their mothers too [...]

Imagine a philosophy that regards human life as worthless and cheap, where adherents are told to kill others who did not share their beliefs, and where huge segments of the population are kept ignorant and subservient. Well, you don’t need to use your imagination; this type of philosophy already exists, and it has a colorful [...]

It’s weird to admit that I am in almost complete agreement with Joseph Farah of World Net Daily over the issue of Conservapedia’s attempt to remove the “liberal bias” of the Bible. Their desire to remove Jesus’ supposed “softness” on crime, and disdain for money is particularly telling of their general philosophy. There are plenty [...]

The hilarious thing about Intelligent Design is that it explains absolutely nothing about the natural world. It’s proponents would have us believe that nature is so complex that only the power of a God (let’s not beat around the bush here) could possibly account for the existence of even the most basic forms of life. [...]

Neil is a fun and interesting speaker. Here he is trying to argue that Intelligent design is a philosophy of ignorance, and that if we continue to allow creationists to undermine science, the state of intellectual progress in America is likely to suffer serious setbacks. I think it’s sad that people invoke God to explain [...]

I have a simple life philosophy: I generally don’t take sexual advice from puppets. I think it stems from my suspicion that they don’t possess any actual genitalia, and therefore lack the necessary understanding to comprehend the tremendous pleasure and joy they provide. Or maybe it’s because I was raped by a creep marionette. I’m [...]

Personally I’m pretty sick and tired of religious individuals commenting on atheism when they have absolutely no idea what it means to not believe in God. Let me assure you, religious readers, that I am not an atheist because of an abusive or absent father (an idea so insultingly wrong that I usually choose not [...]

I used to be a huge online dater. Let’s just say that it was insane enough that in the span of 2 years, I went on over 150 dates. So when I say I’m an online dating expert, I’m not joking. I tried out every major dating site, but the one I purposely stayed away from [...]
