I’ve been seeing Christian propaganda lately on facebook.  Normally I ignore it, but today I decided to comment on one of them.  The original post had an image that said, “I am a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints.  I am a Christian. I invite you to learn more about [...]

Well, Matt Slick is at it again, but what’s new? Matt has put out 36 questions for atheists about standards of morality.  He has also asked them in a YouTube video.  Many of these don’t pertain to my view on morality, many of them are extremely redundant, and many of them are laughable because they [...]

The Born Again Dogma

June 21, 2011

Most Christians I meet talk about being “born again”.  Often, this is a defining moment in their lives that separates two distinct time frames.  You will hear them say, “Before I was saved…”, and “Since I’ve been saved…”  Both of these things revolve around this idea of being born again. I was brought up a [...]

Cognitive dissonance

June 20, 2011

When I first moved from Canada to New Zealand, the bugs took a bit of getting used to. A week in, we’d already experienced our first earthquake and a year’s worth of rain. Then, my wife found a huge spider in our rental house and the whole incident wasn’t pretty.  Both literally and figuratively: Continue [...]

IMPORTANT: Kacem Al Ghazali – I’m With You

January 1, 2011

Kacem Al Ghazali needs our help.  It doesn’t matter what you believe religiously, this man is in danger, and even if you disagree with him, you should be appalled by his situation. Since I let it be known that I am an atheist, I have dealt with tons of bigotry.  I have been yelled at, [...]

Understanding the Words of Jesus

December 31, 2010

Have you ever wondered how a book, like the Bible, could be the word of God, yet there be so many translations of it? I think most of us have, even believers.  It would seem to me that a book inspired by an omniscient and omnipotent being should be written in such a way that [...]

What is Information – How Creationists Fail Again.

December 19, 2010

Why is it that creationists say contradictory things about information when it relates to DNA? I’ve heard creationists say for a while that DNA is information, and that information requires intelligence. The standard response of atheists is to deny that DNA is information, and I have to disagree with this.  I’ve also heard creationists say [...]
