I absolutely love QualiaSoup. Chicken soup for the atheist’s soul uh… brain, that guy is. I’ve argued in the past, in some effective and some ineffective ways, that atheism and agnosticism are not mutually exclusive, and that not having made up your mind on whether there’s a god or not does not mean you get …

Benoit Mandelbrot leaves this mortal coil
Sadly, Jonathan Coulton’s song contained in this Youtube video is now out of date. Benoit Mandelbrot, renowned mathematician, passed away this past Thursday at the age of 85. I often mention fractals to explain to theists that infinite complexity can be derived from very simple math. This is an almost direct analog to how the …

Kilmeade doubles down on Bill O’Reilly’s bigotry

News flash: global warming is really happening.
Despite people’s insistence that it isn’t, the climate is really changing, and certain animals dependent on certain climates are being squeezed out. Natural selection is going to kick in, and in a big way. These walruses are pretty much screwed, for instance. We’ve only been screaming about global warming for decades. The more ground the …

Chased by an Elephant: The Gospel Truth About Today’s Stampeding Sexuality, was authored by Janice Barrett Graham, wife of Stephen Graham, President of the anti-gay organization, Standard of …

Teen pregnancy more prevalent in prudish societies
What… a… surprise. Know what you get when you teach kids that sexuality is off-limits and sinful, as the American conservatives do? You get pregnant, STD-ridden kids! Meanwhile, societies like the Netherlands, where kids are allowed co-ed sleepovers and are taught about safe sex, have drastically fewer underage pregnancies and STDs. And by drastic, I …
