Today was a crummy day. In my job I wind up coming across a lot of people who are…just…fucking evil, and it’s my job to try and make those situations better. Some days it gets even an experienced reluctant warrior down. Michaelyn sent me this video. It made me smile. Hooray for making crummy days [...]

Friendly Atheist vs. Unfriendly Atheist (<—me)
February 29th, 2012
JT Eberhard Hemant Mehta is a friend of mine. I love the guy and never want to follow him on stage as a speaker. My friend is displeased with how some of us, including me, went after Alain de Botton. I won’t comment on the top half of his post, but for the latter half I think [...]

Alain de Botton on what atheists can learn from religion
February 28th, 2012
JT Eberhard My father sent me an article on CNN that almost made me throw up all over the baby I was eating. It’s from Alain de Botton, the author of Religion for Atheists. It’s horrible.
