I can’t say that all conservatives are as virulent and petulant as this one, but it was an interesting look into the mindset of someone who is really deep into the wingnut land. I’ve decided to not name any names because that’s not really how I want to engage it, but rather, will respond to [...]

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 [...]

That might as well have been the headline of this news article. Heaven forbid an atheist choose not to invoke a deity and instead chose to take a principled stance against invocations at board meetings. Naturally people were absolutely horrified at this: “Did I find his comments repugnant and insulting? Yes,” Olens said. “He abused [...]
