Why Religious Hypocrites Are The WORST Hypocrites
When history looks back at our time, I suspect they’ll see it as a Golden Age of Corruption, Greed, Racism and Hypocrisy. The four horsemen of our modern apocalypse (to be sure, there are a few more horsemen riding with them – Misogyny, Bigotry and Ignorance). As bad as the other three are, Hypocrisy, though […]

The Debate America’s Having With Itself Is NOT Political, It’s Facts v Feelings
To judge from the way our news media has covered the story of what America’s going through right now, you’d think it was entirely political: Democrats want America to go one way – cos politics – while the Republicans want us to go another way – cos politics. “Both sides do it”, don’tcha see? Alas, […]

Chaz Stevens Has It 100% Right – For Ban-Worthy Content, Nothing Beats The Bible
This week, Florida human rights activist Chaz Stevens, “known for his tongue-in-cheek petitions to local government agencies”, came up with a good one. He asked the districts to “immediately remove the Bible from the classroom, library, and any instructional material.” The reason? The Bible is entirely age inappropriate for school age children because it’s filled […]

If Jesus Did Come Back, The First Thing He’d Do Is Sue Christianity For Defamation
Poor Jesus. It was bad enough the poor guy literally got crucified. Not a nice way to go. But then to get crucified all over again – every single day – by the very religion that claims Jesus as its… what? What does Christianity think of Jesus as? It’s “founder”? He did no such thing. […]

Profiles In Monotheism & Madness: Kenneth Copeland
If you don’t know who Kenneth Copeland is, you should. Kenneth Copeland is the poster boy for why monotheism is dangerous. Ken’s a televangelist and a big fan of the “prosperity gospel”. He preaches that contrary to what Jesus actually said about money and how corrupting it is, “true believers” like Ken owe it to […]

Republicans Have Achieved “Peak Magical Thinking”
The Republican Party could run a master class on magical thinking. That’s a measure of their absolute expertise on the subject – from imagining it to propagating it to accepting it. In essence and in fact, magical thinking is a safe space for tender, snowflakey feelings. Facts are anathema. They simply don’t get along with […]

A War On Christmas? More Like Christmas Declared War On US!
When you first enter the world famous “Pantheon Of Nonsense”, one of the first rooms you come to (and how can you miss it, there’s so much light coming from it?) is one marked “The War On Christmas”. Inside, the room feels both enormous and yet crushingly small; it’s such a massive complaint about nothing. […]

There’s A HUGE Difference Between “Christians” And “Followers Of Jesus”
Question: How do you get from “Do unto others” to “Onward, Christian Soldier!”? The truth is you can’t. Even a humble atheist can “do unto others”. A Christian soldier? They do unto others before others can do unto them. That’s their idea of Jesus. In other words, they have no idea of Jesus or, whatever […]
