Welcome To This World
From The Thinking Atheist comes this video. I saw it on Pharyngula and PZ’s comment rang true with me. He said… The most disturbing thing about this video is that, even though it’s made by The Thinking Atheist, I can imagine it being shown in a church to the approval of the congregation. httpvh://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Rwioe1SGkQ
Possession & Witchcraft…2010?
This story is horrific. In the year 2010 we still have people accusing others of witchcraft and satanic possession. It was bad enough 300 years ago when people were accused of witchcraft in Salem, Ma. but at least the people involved were adults. Now there is a Nigerian woman named Helen Ukpabio who suggests that …
More on the Christian sense of entitlement
This morning, I read an article written by Reverend Michael Bresciani titled “National Day of Prayer out says federal judge — America’s identity eroding.” It’s generally more of the ignorance commonly displayed by the religious right when claiming the United States is a “Christian Nation,” though Bresciani does claim that label is inaccurate.

More Christian Nation Controversy
This topic of the United States as a “Christian Nation” is abused so often by the religious right that it’s gotten beyond tedious, but Sarah Palin managed to stir it up again with her ignorant ramblings at the Women of Joy conference in Louisville, Kentucky. According to an ABC News story, Palin thinks it’s “mind …
The Thinking Atheist and Noah’s Ark
The Thinking Atheist has a new video about Noah’s Ark and the Genesis flood. Very well done and very funny!
Dale McGowan on the Santa Claus issue
Dale McGowan (Parenting Beyond Belief and Raising Freethinkers) posts on The Meming of Life blog about Santa Claus being the “ultimate dry run” for questions about God’s existence. In part… By allowing our children to participate in the Santa myth and find their own way out of it through skeptical inquiry, we give them a …
Elisha, God, and a couple of she bears
I came across this very, very funny video while perusing the Exploring Our Matrix blog and, since it’s based on one of my favorite horrid passages in the bible, I’d share it. The passage in question is 2 Kings 2:23-25. 23 And he went up from thence unto Bethel: and as he was going up …
Redding woman doesn’t know about church
A Redding, California woman has decided to make it her mission to require schools to “provide children the opportunity to listen to or perform Christmas carols” or face litigation. According to redding.com, Merry Hyatt is collecting signatures (she needs 433, 971 by March 29th) in order to get her initiative put on the ballot next …
