I can't wait until something terrible happens to Pat Robertson so I can blame it on God's wrath.

I'm so sick of this crazy christian turd.  Every time something tragic happens to anyone or anything he blames it on God being pissed.  Seriously folks if you're significantly overweight and are nearly 80 years old chances are you're going to have a stroke... I hate Pat Robertson and I hope if there is a God she strikes him down.

Is Religion Rooted in the Biology of the Human Brain?

    To the great minds of the 19th century, religion was blatant superstition, which an increasingly enlightened society would soon discard. But today, in the most technologically and scientifically enlightened age the world has ever known, God’s numbers have never been better—church affiliation has never been higher, and more than seventy percent of the American population claims to believe in God.

Most secular thinkers believe that religion is an entirely psychological invention—born out of confusion and fear—to help us cope with the struggles of living and comforts us in the face of the terrible certainty that we will die. But researchers Andrew Newberg and Eugene d’Aquili offer a new explanation, at once profoundly simple and scientifically precise: the religious impulse is rooted in the biology of the human brain.  READ MORE

Penn Jillette: "There is No God" Essay

"I believe that there is no God. I'm beyond Atheism. Atheism is not believing in God. Not believing in God is easy -- you can't prove a negative, so there's no work to do. You can't prove that there isn't an elephant inside the trunk of my car. You sure? How about now? Maybe he was just hiding before. Check again. Did I mention that my personal heartfelt definition of the word "elephant" includes mystery, order, goodness, love and a spare tire?"

"So, anyone with a love for truth outside of herself has to start with no belief in God and then look for evidence of God. She needs to search for some objective evidence of a supernatural power. All the people I write e-mails to often are still stuck at this searching stage. The Atheism part is easy."  READ MORE

Robertson warns Pennsylvania voters of God's wrath

Another "intelligent" comment from that batshit crazy son-of-a-bitch Pat Robertson:

Conservative Christian broadcaster Pat Robertson told citizens of a Pennsylvania town that they had rejected God by voting their school board out of office for supporting "intelligent design" and warned them Thursday not to be surprised if disaster struck. READ MORE

God & Delusion

Marshall Brain has written some great stuff on his site.  whydoesgodhateamputees.com

This is by far my favorite.

Let's say that I tell you the following story:

• There is a man who lives at the North Pole.
• He lives there with his wife and a bunch of elves.
• During the year, he and the elves build toys.
• Then, on Christmas Eve, he loads up a sack with all the toys.
• He puts the sack in his sleigh.
• He hitches up eight (or possibly nine) flying reindeer.
• He then flies from house to house, landing on the rooftops of each one.
• He gets out with his sack and climbs down the chimney.
• He leaves toys for the children of the household.
• He climbs back up the chimney, gets back in his sleigh, and flies to the next house.
• He does this all around the world in one night.
• Then he flies back to the North Pole to repeat the cycle next year.

This, of course, is the story of Santa Claus.

But let's say that I am an adult, and I am your friend, and I reveal to you that I believe that this story is true. I believe it with all my heart. And I try to talk about it with you and convert you to believe it as I do.

What would you think of me? You would think that I am delusional, and rightly so.

Why do you think that I... READ MORE

Joseph Campbell

If you're not familiar with Joseph Campbell you should really pick up and read one or all of his books.  His work has had a HUGE impact on my life, and I constantly find inspiration in his works.  For those of you who don't know, Mr. Campbell's book Hero With a Thousand Faces inspired much of what we've come to know as Star Wars.

"Life is like arriving late for a movie, having to figure out what was going on without bothering everybody with a lot of questions, and then being unexpectedly called away before you find out how it ends." - JC

"The conquest of the fear of death is the recovery of life's joy. One can experience an unconditional affirmation of life only when one has accepted death, not as contrary to life, but as an aspect of life. Life in its becoming is always shedding death, and on the point of death. The conquest of fear yields the courage of life. That is the cardinal initiation of every heroic adventure — fearlessness and achievement." - JC

Societies worse off 'when they have God on their side'

Here is an excerpt from a great article:

According to the study, belief in and worship of God are not only unnecessary for a healthy society but may actually contribute to social problems. Read More

Pornless in America? Soon I think...

Not able to jerk off to your favorite porn anymore?  You can thank your government.  Thanks right wing christian nut jobs!  Apparently we've solved the terror problem, so the FBI is all freed up for this kind of stuff. One of the first victims is the great site suicidegirls.com, which is very artsy and tasteful to begin with. (read below)


I just wanted to let you know that, thanks to the "War on Porn," SG will be taking down a bunch of photosets and individual photos today.

Even the FBI agents paid to surf for porn find this ridiculous, but apparently sending people to jail for pictures of two consenting adults enjoying a little rope bondage is more fucking important than.... I dunno, pick any one of the million of better causes out there that the government could be focusing on.

So, I apologize heartily for having to do this, both to the SuicideGirls whose art is being fucked over and the members who are being treated like babies, but we really don't want to get shut down and sent to jail. As soon as legally possible, the photosets and pictures about to be taken down will come back. Until then, bid a fond farewell to your favorite blood-bathing beauties, rope-bound babes, and handcuffed honeys. Apparently they've no place in today's society.

If you want to help stop this stupidity, feel free join SG in donating to the Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF) and the Free Speech Coalition.  If you live in the US, you can also send a letter to your representative in Congress.
