Atheist faces serious jail time for offending religious people
If religionists offend us by calling atheists “immoral”, “scummy” or just plain “evil”, we do what any rational and confident person of sound judgement does: we ignore them (or if you’re like me, you write steamy vitriol in your pathetic blog). That’s usually the extent of our outrage, but for religious folks, who benefit from [...]

Saturday, March 6, 2010
It still amazes me that gays and lesbians can still cling to their bigoted religion, even when these institutions have made it quite clear that they aren’t welcomed. In Boulder, Colorado, a preschooler was booted from a private Catholic school because his/her parents were lesbians, and this violates the Church’s firm belief that homosexuality is an abomination. Now, [...]

Is it so wrong of me to delight in the pleasure of reading truly terrible and infantile articles trying to “prove” the existence of God? Even though the arguments never change, I still delight in reading the faithful drone on and on about just how real God is, despite the fact that they themselves readily [...]

Tuesday, March 2, 2010
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 [...]

30 years ago today, a young couple in Sherbrooke, Quebec gave birth to a baby with a giant head. That baby grew up thinking that all religions were essentially bullshit, and set out to record a totally kick ass podcast to let the world know how he felt. That little boy with a gigantic head was me, [...]

Thursday, February 25, 2010
I don’t like religion, but like most atheists I know, the thought of burning down churches is rather repugnant. There’s no need to create more religious martyrs by making it seem as though their beliefs are under attack. My preferred kind of “assault” is always verbal and intellectual, and I expect any other “Good Atheist” [...]

Wednesday, February 24, 2010
Oh Larry, if religious people DID keep their insane opinions to themselves, then I’d be out of a job, and the world would be a very different place. I guess instead of making fun of religionists, I would would have to out in the real world and get a 9-5 job…oh the horror!

Tuesday, February 23, 2010
It’s not uncommon for people to automatically assume that faith based organizations are inherently better than secular ones, since volunteers are usually motivated not only by their charity, but also by their piety. This is exactly what this women is trying to argue. Her proof? Well, she often donates clothing to both Goodwill and the [...]

Tuesday, February 23, 2010
You know, in life, you have to appreciate the little things; a nice sunset, a good meal, and the subtle joys of disciplining your children with large plastic tubes. About 3 years ago, Kevin and Elizabeth Schatz were punishing their adopted daughter for being silly, and because their religion puts heavy emphasis on using physical [...]

Sunday, February 21, 2010
Wow, now I know I’ve made the claim that religiosity doesn’t make you more moral (and often makes you more racist), but I barely qualify as edutainment, and absolutely no one should ever take me too seriously. How fucking crazy controversial is this study? Religious folks are going to lose their minds over this! Is [...]
