I mean, they’re always snotty jerkwads, but man oh man, at Christmas time, they are just insufferable.

How Atheism helps Skepticism
I have heard from many people, and have been told what’s truly at the heart of the debate between Atheism and Skepticism is that talking about religion at skeptic conventions drives people away.

F all this, I’m talking about Harry Potter
The best part of the the Harry Potter movie? Definitely the Death Eaters. The part where Voldemort breaks Snakey? OMG.

Skepticism VS Atheism: The Stupid Fight
I’m not sure why this is, but there seems to be a faction of Skeptics, not all of whom are religious, who have a problem with Skeptics who like to talk about Atheism.

50 Book Challenge: 56-60
Week 45 56. Wintersmith – Terry Pratchett, read by Stephen Briggs This is a Tiffany Aching book. I didn’t care for this one as much as the previous Tiffany books, but I still really enjoyed it. I think the problem with the Tiffany series is that none of the Big Bads have been as compelling …

Blah
