What's this I read?

The pope agrees that good Atheists being good can assist in their getting to heaven.

ROFL!

A rather pointless gesture or olive branch to Atheists.

He seems to believe that Atheists would like to get into heaven.

Hardly!!!!

Many are Atheists because they think the Christian heaven is definitely not only non-existent, but it isn't any sort of a mythical place they'd even think of going if they did believe in it.

Maybe the…

A “True” Story Posted by My Grandfather to Facebook, or What Older Generations Really Think of Young People

 

An economics professor at a local college made a statement that he had never failed a single student before, but had recently failed an entire class. That class had insisted that Obama's socialism worked and that no one would be poor and no one would be rich, a great equalizer. 

The professor then said, "OK, we will have an experiment in this class on Obama's…

The unemployment rate for 16-23 year olds is the highest it's been in a generation in the UK, with record numbers of university graduates and school levers going straight on the doll.

I know most people don't hang their laundry outside anymore, but I had always thought it was just b/c they're lazy.



It saves a ton of money and energy, but people are too concerned with their own vanity ("it looks trailer trash") to tolerate. People objecting to the sight of someone else's undergarments is very Victorian. (Look away, then.) The… Continue

My reply to The Cost of Religion thread

For God they conquered

Mothers wept

For king and country under God

God gave the rulers holy right

Ray Comfort is a creationist. You may remember him from the Crocoduck video I posted last weekend. Ray has a blog called (for some reason, I don’t quite get it) “Atheist Central”. Today Ray posted attacking evolution, and the so-called “pope of evolution”, The New Atheist favourite (that’s for you, my Commonwealth friends) Richard Dawkins. The article is full of glaring hypocrisies, I almost didn’t want to post about it, as it’s just too much.… Continue

Ah, Don McLeroy, the creationist dentist and scourge of secular Texans. Don is in a lot of trouble you see, after thrusting Texas into the national spot light when he pushed for looser language in the education standards that would allow creationism in the classroom. More

I'm fairly well inebriated (2/3 bottle of wine), or I would never say some of this. Enjoy. Please comment. Not really a common thing for me to be drinking to excess, but more common recently. An excess of anger/frustration that needs to be muted, perhaps.



Ahem, edited. More humorous, less cynical and snotty.





Rule #1

There are no rules. Officially.

Um, and don't fucking tell anyone you have rules. Not that you would. It's just a bad idea. It… Continue
