So today at the store, I got back 60 cents in change. All well and good, but when I grabbed the quarters to put them in the pile for de-godding, I noticed that one of them looked a little different. “In [smudge] We Trust”, it read, unless my eyes deceived me. Yes! Now, I had …

It’s a target-rich environment, with atheists galore! So it’s onward Christian soldiers, we’ll be marching as to war! There are lots of you on Facebook, but I’m asking now for more, Cos my comment threads are being overrun. I’ve got godless by the thousands—it’s an atheist attack, Every time I post a message, there are …

We see these rights as absolute— No state would dare restrict ‘em— We have not broken any law… Until there is a victim. We’re free to speak of fantasies Of murder, rage, or hate— We haven’t crossed the line, of course, Until… it is too late. Our whispered, dark conspiracies Are safely out of reach— …

We’re all gonna die! We’re all gonna die! And it’s only a matter of time. We’ll live on in memory, and then not at all (and it’s not any better in rhyme) The meek and the mighty, the great and the small Will be gone. So the message is clear: Since you won’t be immortal, …

Dear Mister Minister… I read your little letter—and I disagree, I fear— Since you don’t allow for comments there, I’ll have to comment here: It’s written very clearly, and it isn’t very long, But your letter has a fatal flaw: its premises are wrong! You paint us a position, which you eagerly refute But the …

You believe in evolution In this modern Christian day Though your God was the Creator Evolution was His way So you see no contradiction And you tell me I am wrong When I say that God and science Really cannot get along You believe in evolution As a Christian, so you say, And that blind, …

Your brain does this; your brain does that; Your brain does other stuff. Your brain controls your body, and (If that was not enough) Your brain makes all your choices, and Your brain dreams all your dreams— So much of what you are is in Your brain… or so it seems. I’ve learned about neurology, …
