Neil deGrasse Tyson wrong about atheism

“Is there a word for non-golf players?” “Do non-skiers have a word and get together to talk about why they don’t ski?” “I can’t gather round to discuss how everybody in the room doesn’t believe in god.” “At the end of the day I would rather not be in any category at all.” These are... Read more »

Kuwait theocracy declares Islam is weak

“The less secure a man is, the more likely he is to have extreme prejudice.” – Clint Eastwood Any belief that cannot withstand scrutiny isn’t worth having. Anyone who is secure in their beliefs does not run away from criticism, they welcome it. The Kuwaiti parliament has declared the so called omnipotent deity Allah unable... Read more »

Did god press the Big Bang button?

‎”Extinguished theologians lie about the cradle of every science as the strangled snakes beside that of Hercules; and history records that whenever science and orthodoxy have been fairly opposed, the latter has been forced to retire from the lists, bleeding and crushed if not annihilated; scotched, if not slain.” – Thomas Huxley Seinfeld is a...

Atheist pride and family values

Note – In this article the term atheist refers to all who are not religious. This would include agnostics, deists, humanists and a number of other labels. Religious teachings and traditions that focus on having and raising children plus other family values will provide a Darwinian advantage no matter how absurd any godly beliefs may... Read more »

Philosophy and science over religion

I love philosophy. The following are just a few precious fish in an endless ocean. “Don’t worry about being acknowledged by others; worry about failing to acknowledge them.” – Confucius “Respond intelligently even to unintelligent treatment.” – Lao Tzu “We are what we think. All that we are arises with our thoughts. With our thoughts... Read more »

Why Live without God?

A couple years back I came across a YouTube video by a very thoughtful atheist who goes by the name ReligiousFiction. She had been asked by religious people what reason there is to live without god. She also tragically lost a cousin who committed suicide. This “why live” question is not simply philosophical for her... Read more »

Defending science from religion – creationism vs. evolution

The mighty Crom commands that man must stay on earth. This is why when we jump, we don’t get very far. I find it very insulting that when science covers the theory of gravity, Cromism is never even mentioned. I went to the Board of Education demanding that my sacred religious beliefs be included in...

Insanity of a Jealous God

Many non-believers struggle with the fact that so many good and intelligent people actually believe in the Bible despite all the irrational nonsense. As someone who aspires to be patient and respectful, this is something I wrestle with constantly. The Second Commandment declares that god is a jealous god. How can this insanity be ignored...

The problem with morality coming from God

Charles Darwin never said that evolution was good. He was never an advocate of the survival of the fittest constituting a virtuous moral code. Evolution was simply the result of an unbiased quest for truth. Why are there species and breeds of animals that exist on the Galapagos Islands, but don’t exist anywhere else on... Read more »

Secular powered Reason Rally coming to save America

My eyes were bulging wide, my mouth was hung open and I nearly fell out of my chair. During a recent debate, the Archbishop of Canterbury admitted that humans evolved from other animals. I shouldn’t have been surprised as the Catholic Church accepted the realities of evolution years ago, but to hear the words out... Read more »
