Categories:

Christianity

by Avicenna

Today’s little taste of harmless fundie comes from Christian Post and Dan Delzell. Do you realize that everyone in your community falls into one of three categories? By using the Old Testament as a way to think about people today, we see that everyone is somewhere between an “Egyptian” and an “Israelite.” I sense a …

Ken Ham is “low hanging fruit”. It’s fun to laugh at him because some of his arguments are just “terrible”. Today’s is no different. Not only is the Earth 6000 odd years old and all of us have come out of the super incest that was Noah but Dragons also existed. “So the valiant knight …

Atheism, Catholic, Christianity, Skeptic

by Avicenna

Ghostbusting has always been a big business. Let’s define it for a second. In this context I refer to the notion that people believe in intelligent beings that are not human or were human that either possess other humans or interfere in the way we live in some way. There has been a proliferation of …
