my sister has my bible that I used when I was still a church-goer. It's a nice KJV with gold trim and archeological information and thematic indexes. I get that coppery blood taste in my mouth just thinking about all the crap I let myself consider...
Put them in a blender for a delicious Bible smoothie.
I found that Jared Diamond's book made some sense, but was flawed in many aspects. Richard Lynn and Tatu Vahanen utterly trashes his thesis in their book "IQ and the Wealth of Nations". Diamond's theories do not account for the fact that the Ameri...
Exactly! This is a map of "good schools" and in no way reflects potential in races or individuals.
Extremely amusing.
I have argued about a similar issue before. Omnipotence is not possible in reality, and free will isn't possible if there is an omnipotent being. All we need to do is finding just one example of task that isn't possible to perform for anyone in re...
I have all my books about philosophy and religion in the cabinet above my computer desk, but they aren't organized in any particular fashion.
People are already immoral. Religion just gives us warrant to let loose.

I wonder if you could let your American Humanists know that tickets for the convention are now available online at the Convention website. We are expecting nearly 3,000 delegates, so this convention is going to be huge.
Confirmed speakers include: Richard Dawkins, AC Grayling, PZ Myers, Dan Barker, Peter Singer, Taslima Nasrin and many more.
Anything you can do to help us get the word out would be greatly appreciated.
I hope we might see you at the Convention also!
What kinds do you have?
