Why Religious Hypocrites Are The WORST Hypocrites
When history looks back at our time, I suspect they’ll see it as a Golden Age of Corruption, Greed, Racism and Hypocrisy. The four horsemen of our modern apocalypse (to be sure, there are a few more horsemen riding with them – Misogyny, Bigotry and Ignorance). As bad as the other three are, Hypocrisy, though…

Chaz Stevens Has It 100% Right – For Ban-Worthy Content, Nothing Beats The Bible
This week, Florida human rights activist Chaz Stevens, “known for his tongue-in-cheek petitions to local government agencies”, came up with a good one. He asked the districts to “immediately remove the Bible from the classroom, library, and any instructional material.” The reason? The Bible is entirely age inappropriate for school age children because it’s filled…

If Jesus Did Come Back, The First Thing He’d Do Is Sue Christianity For Defamation
Poor Jesus. It was bad enough the poor guy literally got crucified. Not a nice way to go. But then to get crucified all over again – every single day – by the very religion that claims Jesus as its… what? What does Christianity think of Jesus as? It’s “founder”? He did no such thing.…

Profiles In Monotheism & Madness: Kenneth Copeland
If you don’t know who Kenneth Copeland is, you should. Kenneth Copeland is the poster boy for why monotheism is dangerous. Ken’s a televangelist and a big fan of the “prosperity gospel”. He preaches that contrary to what Jesus actually said about money and how corrupting it is, “true believers” like Ken owe it to…

Michael Flynn Is The Poster Boy For Why Monotheism Is Dangerous
Ever notice how it’s never Jews or Muslims or Buddhists or Native Americans or anyone other than Christians who think their religion should be the only religion practiced in America? What is it exactly about Christianity — okay, American Christianity — that makes it so easily taken in by megalomaniacs like Jim Jones and David…

I Am Sick To Death Of People Who Literally Think They’re God
Personally, I blame monotheism. We’ve got it in our heads that monotheism was a positive evolutionary step forward from polytheism. That is, “people who believe there’s only one sky deity are more advanced in their thinking than people who think there are more than one sky deity”. Can I tell ya? From an atheist’s POV?…

Personally, I Blame Monotheism For This Freakin’ Mess We’re In
A monotheist is someone who thinks his imaginary friend can beat the crap out of your imaginary friend. The problem is, the monotheist’s friend isn’t all that “imaginary”. This atheist absolutely accepts the sincerity of all his monotheistic friends (and he has many!) that they believe a creature far larger than themselves created everything. And…

Being Republican Means Never Having To Say You’re Sorry
Anyone’s who’s ever raised a child knows what can happen when a five year old gets crazy belligerent. Trying to reason with them is pointless on steroids. They act and argue like five year old’s because that’s what they are. Republicans can’t claim the same excuse though that doesn’t stop them from arguing like five…

God Goes On A Job Interview: A Sketch
SETTING: A long, featureless, fluorescent lit hallway that seems to go on forever. Approaching footsteps and heavy breathing. Whoever’s approaching must be late — and worried about it. God steps into frame, a slip of paper clutched in his powerful (to hear him talk about it) hand. He peers at the number scribbled on it.…
