Top 10 Things to do Before Commenting on Atheism's Great Rift


Ah, the Great Rift of atheism. I haven't been able to get away from it. There has been mishegas on top of mishegas occurring lately with the Justin Vacula vs Dave Silverman fight on Brave Hero Radio and CFI's conflict with some feminists. 

I'm not going to comment about the craziness. However, I am going to comment on commenting (yes, I'm going meta on you all). 

Here are the Top 10 things to do before commenting on atheism's Great Rift.


Maybe this time will be different.

#10  Call your bestie and/or rageoholic sponsor and ask him/her if your statement sounds: redundant, gratuitously insipid and/or mean.

Old Testament Dietary Edition




Whenever I think I had it bad growing up as a Christian where Mom was the church organist/choir director and Dad was a deacon, I just have to schlep over to a Jewish website so I can see the dictatorial demands of a God who would categorically damn the entire Food Channel, and I feel better.

I'm talking, of course, about being kosher.

Jesus Christ, Another Crappy Father's Day

Everyone forgets about me on Father's Day. -- Jesus Christ

Cleveland, Ohio -- Jesus Christ, Savior, Lord, and Words with Friends enthusiast, has come clean and set the record straight: Father's Day is by far his least favorite holiday. "You would think Good Friday would bring out some painful memories, but, hey, you have to move on with your life," he said wistfully while drinking a frapappuccino at a local Starbucks. "I'm not crazy about Ramadan, either. But Father's Day just rubs me raw."

Responding to the New Boy Scout Policy and Schlepping on the Bitchspot Podcast




Some of you who have been hanging around Purgatory (Purgatorians?) for some time may have been wondering what my response is to the new inclusion policy of the Boy Scouts of America (BSA). I went on Atheist Pig and wrote this piece:  Boycotting the Boy Scouts. I hope you read it. 

I was also on the Bitchspot Podcast epsisode 16 where I did my nerdy/atheist/funny schtick. It may be the narcissist in me, but I always think I have something interesting to say. You can listen to it here.

Priceless Gifts for an Atheist Dad

Father's Day is coming up, and my kids were asking me what would be some good gifts. I don't have a lot of toys because I really don't need a lot of toys.

I've come to the realization a long time ago that the most important stuff I can get for Father's Day doesn't cost money.

Social Conservatives to Make New State in Colorado



Socially conservative counties in Colorado are mobilizing their voters to form their own state and megachurch -- Theochristic Colorado. If the leaders of Free Colorado are able to gather enough signatures by August, then a ballot question will appear in 8 counties asking citizens whether or not they want to secede.

But who are the people behind the push for what would be the first state in 150 years formed by division? (West Virginia was the last state to be made in such a fashion.) Andrew and David Koke are prominent businessmen who live in Steamboat Springs. They are the co-chairs of Free Colorado.
