It’s been a while! Lots of catching up to do.

• Are you looking for help debunking geocentrism? NonStampCollector has a source. (Yes, it’s a real thing.)

• Ashley Miller catalogs the best of Ashley Miller from 2012.

• Avicenna slaps down Bodie Hodge. Answers in Genesis is such a rich source of lunacy.

• Biodork is playing with blood. Awesome!

• Chris Rodda learns that the Officer’s Christian Fellowship changed their public slogan from the goal of creating “A spiritually transformed military…” to “glorify[ing] God”. Do you think they no longer have evangelical goals?

• Crommunist weighs in, feebly: I’m sorry, but you can’t judge a Philly cheesesteak without tasting it. (But yeah, everyone knows Geno is a jerk.)

• Dana Hunter has earth-shaking news: the sun came out in Seattle! She used that as an excuse to take lots of pictures.

• Deacon Duncan tells us about familiar Christian hypocrisy: don’t infringe on our right to discriminate against others, but let’s make sure no one can discriminate against Christians.

• Ed Brayton discovers that rich white gun-wielding old guys are the new Rosa Parks. Next step: marching in protest against themselves.

• Greta Christina has an updated list of atheists of color. Convention planners, consult it before you discover you have an all-white speaker lineup!

• Hank Fox reminisces about holidays past.

• Jason Thibeault features a Laci Green video on slut-shaming.

• Lilandra lists the foundational fallacies of sexists.

• Mano Singham explains that economic sanctions can be just as lethal as bombs.

• Maryam Namazie announces that there is a general strike in Iran to protest death sentences. So, in other words, Iranians are better human beings than most Texans.

• Miriam doesn’t think loving yourself is such a good idea. No, it’s not about that.

• Natalie Reed doesn’t think that calling exploitation cinema “retro” or “hip” or “edgy” excuses it. And you know what? Quentin Tarentino really is a gigantic asshole.

• Oh, no! The Digital Cuttlefish finds a theologian who thinks the incompleteness of science is an argument against science! Gosh, I never heard that one before.

• Ophelia Benson has a great money-making idea: a store that sells nothing but women’s body parts. She calls it Lips & Labia. The advertizing agencies will find it a trivial exercise.

• Paul Fidalgo has betrayed his Apple iPad and taken up with a Nexus 7. Traitor.

• Richard Carrier explains that Atheism+ is just atheism + skepticism + humanism. I’m mystified, too, about why such a straightforward and reasonable combination of values generates so much hate.

• Sikivu Hutchinson deplores the American culture of violent silence and rape as terrorism against women.

• Stephanie Zvan announces another “Mock The Movie” event for tomorrow night. This one features a scary clown.

• The Atheist Experience analyzes a common call-in tactic: pretending an explanation is a rebuttal. Watch for it, Christians do this all the time.

• Wait, Taslima Nasrin — you mean dropping trou isn’t an invitation to rape?

• Zinnia Jones is writing notes to her past self. Wow, if I could do that…I don’t know if I’d write a book or just a short note to carry on.
