Right on Enco,

The garbage that the Islamic religion professes turns its adherents into something way less than animals. And for certain the hatred for the other tribe goes on and on, century after century. With their fucking hats and robes, holy books and special meals. They act like different species, yet they worship the same ill-conceived…[Read more]

Reg, Davis, and Jake,

To paraphrase the great Atheist Denis Diderot, neither “Palestine” nor anywhere else in the Middle East will be free until the last Dictator is strangled with the entrails of the last Mullah.

And might I add, until every mosque is a dance hall and skating rink, every church is an observatory and art museum, and every…[Read more]

Reg,

The U.S. is 43% Atheist??? I’d like to see the metric that this survey uses. Does it count every newborn? Or does it require a specific statement of either unbelief or positive assertion of no God? Either way, they are very well hid.

As for Ireland, I think the Priests and Government have probably got you beat on creating Atheists.😁

That video is quite good. Most importantly he persuasively argues what is patently obvious to anyone who is not under the spell of the far left or otherwise propagandized-the anti Israel sentiment is an expression of anti Jewish racism and outstandingly hypocritical. There are exceptions of course.

My only issue in his ten points is his take on…[Read more]

Ugh an utter dog shit video on Palestine-Israel. This topic brings out the nutjobbery, fallacies, brain-farts, bigotry, reverse bigotry and ugliness from both sides all the time. You simply cannot avoid nonsense videos by both Pro-Israeli and Pro-Palestinian people trying to justify the unjustifiable and discredit the other side through utterly…[Read more]

Ireland 60% but I am not yet finished 🙂

Palestine 39 percent atheists?

OKAaaaaaaay.

Imagine how heads will roll when the Islamists of the moment find out!

@_Robert_  and another bottle if we have nuclear fusion within 30 years….because it’s always 30 years away!

Remember the old W.C. Fields quip? “I always keep some whiskey handy in case I see a snake…which I also keep handy.”

Thank you, Reg!!

Have a great week!

Reg,

LGBTQ Nation has some common misconceptions about Fascism.

One, Fascism is not necessarily Racist and Anti-Semitic. Hitler’s variety was but Mussolini’s and Franco’s versions were not until they made alliances with Hitler.

Two, Fascism is not “Anti-Labor.”. Mussolini’s version of Fascist economy was basically State Syndicalism, where…[Read more]

Trump just promised an authoritarian ‘task force’ to impose Christian ideology. That’s because he is a fascist.

It looks like Rump is going to form a new ‘Un-American Activities Committee’
This one aimed at nonbelievers.

Reg,

How CRISPR could yield the next blockbuster crop.

That’s a fascinating story right there!

If it hasn’t happened already, perhaps CRISPR could be sync-ed with AI and get research on plant breeds done even faster, so that companies could create desired breeds and send them to market even faster.

I remember in the halcyon days of the…[Read more]

Hey, don’t make fun of tarot cards. While the whole concept of tarot prognostication is horse pucky, as examples of art, there are now a plethora of gorgeous cards, and I have a collection I accumulated over the period of a year or so.

Some examples.

Reg,

I have already had 2 arguments today over my comments to Catholics about the Virgin Mary being the first surrogate mother and now her baby’s representative here on Earth calls such behavior “deplorable”. Any theologians got some advice for me? This is much more than an ecumenical matter!

Here are some added “Heavy Mystery Time” quest…[Read more]

Bill O’Reilly books were banned!! LOL. I bet they were not even fully colored in yet.  On the Conservative CalendarGate debacle (long read story), I think the Liberals should release one with overly clad women with barely any skin visible!!

Reg,

The Tyler Thier article on manifestos in Aeon neglected an obvious exception: The Secular Humanist Manifestos I, II, and III. I’ve never heard of any of them being left behind after a murder spree.

There’s really no confusion about Big Papa and the Catholic Church’s position on surrogacy: Whether people have children or not, the Church…[Read more]

On the book banning front, Florida’s Bill O’Reilly was horrified, after emphatically supporting Florida’s book banning activity, to discover that his own two books are also banned.

Much mockery ensued, with Jeff Tiedrich taking the prize with the following…

“Republicans sure do love to ban them some books.

but it’s all fun and games until the…[Read more]
