Recently, my home state of Oklahoma came one step closer to passing what is commonly called a Personhood Initiative. This is essentially a law that says personhood starts at the point in time where sperm meets egg. It’s a way to try an circumvent the laws regarding abortion by essentially calling it murder in a [...]
It could take volumes to come up with a suitable piece to deal with Roman Catholics and their issues, but rather than be negative, we’ve come up with some positive approaches to make their issues more palatable. Essentially they were once pretty good people who have developed some serious hang-ups. Stuff happens, and atheists know [...]
The purpose of our ministry is not to spread freedom. It is to break down the reverence given to religion that is built into modern society. Religion is considered good and wholesome even if some of it’s leaders do bad things in it’s name. This presumption is deeply ingrained in much of the global psyche, especially [...]

Charles Darwin’s Theory of Natural Selection can be used to explain many of the otherwise inexplicable traits of modern humans from mate selection, to social interactions, and even child rearing. What many people don’t realize is that such a theory can also explain the sense of ‘morality’ among humans in absence of a theological (and [...]
Crazy megachurch evangelist preachers are amongst the most hilarious homo sapiens . This guy has been watching way too much Flintstones while reading his bible, I guess it makes sense to meld the two stories. All of us know the dangers of faith healing, its just about as effective as wishful thinking. Watch this guy [...]
A religion, a race of people, an enigma, these are all terms applied to the Jewish. They all work when applied to this interesting band of people, who though small in number have contributed much to the world.
