Jesus: Queen of Heaven

A play came out in Glasgow which brought some protests from a few Christian activists. That in of itself is not terribly interesting, but what is interesting is we find yet another Christian practically pining for the zealous fervor of radical Islam: “If this play had treated the prophet Mohammed in the same way there [...]

Birther Hypocrisy

The whole birther movement seems to be dying down. But I had one thought about it while browsing the internet and saw a random thing on birthers. If only birthers applied the same level of scrutiny they place on the birth of Obama on the birth of Jesus. I can only imagine they’d reach a [...]

The End Times Are Not Coming

Rapture rhetoric like this (Warning: Heavy color use and lots of large text) are a dime a dozen. The problem is they are mostly wrong and it is a wonder how they continue to spread their End Times hysteria. Let’s look at a few points. Crime is not increasing. It did increase in the 1960′s [...]

The Fall of Man

So I was thumbing through Genesis and the chapters on the fall of man and I was struck by a particular passage in Genesis 3: 21 The LORD God made garments of skin for Adam and his wife and clothed them. 22 And the LORD God said, “The man has now become like one of [...]

Why I’m Anti-Religious

My anti-religiosity is wholly separate from my atheism. In fact, it should be noted that many religious people are also anti-religious, just not of their own.

Conservapedia Wants to Remove the Commies from the Bible

According to Conservapedia people the modern Bible translations are rife with icky things like liberal bias and anti-market slants. So they took on the task of making a Bible that suits their conservative ends. Oh man, the original Bible was so much better. The King James Version may not be the original scripts, but it’s [...]

Halloween and its Pagan Roots!

Oh noes! Halloween has pagan roots. How awful. So instead of playing along Christians must try and proselytize to children who come to their house! Sounds like fun. The October 31st holiday that we today know as Halloween has strong roots in paganism and is closely connected with worship of the Enemy of this world, Satan. It [...]

Justice and the Christian God

I was having a back and forth with a commenter on another post named Karen. She has been very respectful and it’s been fun having a debate with her. There was a topic that came up that I want to expand on. It’s the idea of justice in a religion (such as Christianity) and how [...]

Anti-Gay Holy Verses

Whenever an issue of homosexual rights comes up around the world the Christians are usually pretty quick to trot out their favorite Bible verse that condemns homosexuality. They usually quote Leviticus 20:13: If a man also lie with mankind, as he lieth with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination Now, this is [...]
