I am often chided by morons.
Consistent
Dear Mr. Myers,
To be wrong is always acceptable, because we are human. But, to be consistently wrong, especially when you call yourself a Professor, is going way beyond the bounds of good sense. Anyone who even gives ear to people such as Dawkins and Kitchens is no less than a fool. There is nothing wrong with being a fool, but teaching others to be one...

A Gallup poll of Americans’ attitudes towards religion released on Christmas Eve found significant recent increases in those responding either that they have no religious preference, that religion is not very important in their lives, or that they believe religion “is largely old-fashioned or out of date.”

Freethinker Sunday Sermonette: an atheist... →
Why does this good atheist family cling to Santa and why is Christmas our favorite holiday? We explain this every year, because for reasons we don’t understand atheists aren’t supposed to like Christmas. But lots of us do.
I’d be curious to find out how many atheists among us on Tumblr like Christmas, too.

Can wicked people live long and prosperous lives?
Yes.
Why do the wicked live on, growing old and increasing in power? Job 21:7
No. God extends the life of the faithful and shortens the life of the wicked.
O God, will bring down the wicked into the pit of corruption; bloodthirsty and deceitful men will not live out half their days. Psalm 55:23
The fear of the LORD adds length to...

Scooter the Skeptic here. I am a kid and I am a skeptic. I’m eleven and live in the south. My being a skeptic here is not a good situation. I can not be myself. I have to pretend I believe like everyone else. My mom says that I don’t have to pretend, but if I were to be myself I would be hated. I think that the people in my town would like everyone to believe what they believe. They believe some...

I get comments...
I love these. Specially from believers. Here is a comment in response to this post.
I’d add that the atheists all need to do the same. Because yours is a faith position just as much as mine is. I know, I’m lobbing a raw steak to a bunch of lions, here… but it bothers me when I (as a Christian) am not allowed to “know” something that is a faith commitment, but you...

Christopher Hitchens clip from Collision (via WhyWon’tGodHealAmputees)
This might be the most straightforward argument I’ve ever seen Hitchens make during a debate. That’s not to say he’s unreasonable in other debates, but rather that he gets himself a bit convoluted from time to time.
