Pastor Mike has a plan: He wants an atheist... →
reetodd:
Wow, this feels a little Hitlery, doesn’t it? And before anyone can throw a “Hitler was an atheist!” reply at me, Hitler was an avowed CATHOLIC.
Brothers and Sisters , I have been seriously considering forming a ( Christian ) grassroots type of organization to be named “The Christian National Registry of Atheists” or something similar . I mean , think about it . There are already...

inkspire:
“I don’t believe in God because he didn’t answer my prayers.”
When in fact we don’t believe in God, in part, because he never answers any prayers. Because he isn’t there and prayers don’t work.

The Apparent Zero-sum Game of Gender Equality in...
torreywang:
Yesterday, speaking to the conservative group Women Impacting the Nation, Allen West (R-Fl) committed the worst non-sequitur ever:
We need you to come in and lock shields to strengthen up the men that will go into the fight for you. To let these other women know, on the other side, these Planned Parenthood women, the Code Pink women, and all of these women who have been...
ABC Hit With Attacks on Chaz Bono After 'DWTS'... →
“YOUR choice to bring Chaz Bono into the mix goes too far. I am not about to risk the potential for on screen dialogue about sex changes and gender confusion while my 7 and 9 year old are watching. If you want the “anything goes” hippy culture, then soon that is all you will get. You’ve lost us. In case any of you are wondering … no, we are NOT tolerant. We are not...

What sucks about carrying a violin in public is...
I can’t tell you how many drunks have hollered at me on the streets if they catch me carrying an instrument.
“What’s that?!?”
“Play us a fucking song!”
“Do you know [insert name of shitty Journey song or some other cliche bullshit here]?”

Abortion is the ultimate exploitation of women.
– Alice Paul (via sjudge12)
This was NEVERsaid by Alice Paul or Susan B Anthony, who the quote is also attributed to. Neither of the women were pro-life. Alice Paul NEVER focused on reproductive rights (abortion, birth control, pregnancy, etc) because they were hot political issues and she was afraid...

Proof Hitler was NOT a Christian →
Miss Raissa,
When you claimed Hitler was an atheist, you weren’t lying, you were just wrong. I’ve not seen anyone call you a liar. I think you were being intellectually dishonest by not really doing any research before making a claim based on a poor understanding of history and speculation, but that’s not a lie. You’re just wrong.
However, since this quote is easily shown...

Atheism Shit That Blows: Resources and Links →
atheism-shitthatblows:
There is such a vibrant atheist community, and I want to share some resources and blogs/vlogs that I like. This will always be a work in progress as I find more information about people/groups.
Atheist Groups (USA):
The United Coalition of Reason - a nonprofit national organization that…
Once again, I’m left off, but seriously, this is a great blog roll.
xxthcenturyvioleta asked: Hi, I'm an atheist and also a historian. I don't agree on your previous answer about the bible. It might not be a history book, but it is historical. Not everything told in the bible happened, but the bible does tell us much about how the world was social, economic, and culturally (p.e., during the first century). Reading the bible, even as an atheist, can become a wonderful experience...
virtualhero-deactivated20120109 asked: I wasn't giving you a tip. I was pointing out that you're an idiot.
Assholes on (surprise) Fox News berate David Silverman for saying people should act like atheists during a hurricane and make rational preparations instead of like believers and closing their eyes and hiding their heads in their prayer-folded hands begging a magical ghost to make it disappear so they don’t have to deal with it.
Pathetic.

Because if you really knew your bible and your religion, you wouldn’t still be Christian.

iamtherevival-deactivated201204 asked: Hey, saw your reply to my post. Just so you know I'm not talking about using The Bible as research. I'm talking about pointing out certain parts of the Bible and critiquing it without even learning what that scripture may be referring to or even going in depth to what it means or the cultural relevancy. I would never use the Bible to defend or explain something scientifically but...
virtualhero-deactivated20120109 asked: she? herself? under what circumstances makes you think I'm female? hahaha. You are exactly the kind of person trolling is made for and why I love it so much.

dear atheists.
iamtherevival:
i love y’all, but seriously if any of you are going to critique the bible or anything about god, know what you’re talking about first and actually look into what you are trying to rebuttal before saying stuff. most of the stuff i see that is brought up, no research is ever put behind the argument and it’s so annoying at times. in return i promise to do the same and research my...

peasandchocolate asked: Well, yeah he's awful to our teachers and schools, but he's also cut funding to women's health centers that don't perform abortions based on his views of abortion. He's so anti-choice it hurts. And no one is even talking about it. Centers that simply provided information, birth control, and care have been closed. Not to mention he cut state taxes by cutting funding to...
peasandchocolate asked: Oh but Christie talks like that all the time. He's my governor, and I actually kind of like that about him. He doesn't beat around bushes or put on airs. He's unprofessional. It's the only thing I like about him actually. I have major problems with his cuts to women's health centers and his views on same-sex marriage. Neither of which seem to get much coverage anywhere....
Hey new followers, thanks for following.
I know the front page doesn’t showcase it, but this really is a blog about atheism, politics, media and humanism. Sometimes I feel like talking about music instead and accidentally do it here. I’ll try to stay focused for you new folks.
muchtoocynical asked: I'm not trying to start an argument or anything. I'm just saying, I think there's a bit more to worry about than a governor using the word "hell" in a tweet.
And it's not even that he just said it
Saying that is one thing, but he tweeted it. Like he decided to pull that part of his speech as his official press release. Isn’t that weird?
