Collect them all!

Getting in on the collectable card game fad, the New Humanist has published a set of religion cards. Here’s a familiar one:

Here we are:

Unfortunately, while they have all those stats on the cards, they haven’t given us any rules! I don’t know how to play the game, other than to mix all the cards together in a bag, and set fire to them. At least that has some real-world verisimilitude to it.

Oh, no! Nightmares!

Yikes, this is an image to spark nightmares. Remember the little fly squeaking, “help me, help me” at the end of the horror movie, The Fly (the original, not the remake)? And it’s Palin!

I just have to reassure myself…this time, the flies wrested the swatter out of her hands, and shooed her back to Alaska.

A worse slander than being an atheist?

At least there seems to be one in Montana: candidate Roy Bown was accused of being…a vegetarian.

“I am not and have never been a vegetarian,” Brown said. “I am disgusted by the baseless allegation that I am a vegetarian and that my personal eating habits should somehow be construed as opposed to the economic interests of Montana’s livestock industry.”

So…would a compromising photo in Montana be one catching a politician eating peas and carrots? Are cholesterol levels and a history of heart attacks advantages in races there?

Demons

If you’re partial to humor about demons (and all you atheists — you know you are), check out DEMONS, a webcomic, sort of. It’s an interesting way to use YouTube, and I also rather like the mockery of Faithmole.
