Everything I need to know about Christianity I learned from the crusades.
“Well, that’s rude,” many Christians would say. But isn’t that what the conservative Christians do regarding Islam? It inspired me to make this image: Seen this? “Everything I need to know about Islam I learned on 9/11” Well, then, I could just as easily say: Everything I need to know about Christianity I learned from the crusades. Islam has a lot of problem in it, as do all religions. Islam isn’t that much different, it’s only newer and there’s...
Read MoreSexism and Sex
Lately, there’s been some hubbub going on in the skeptic/atheist community. I’d be remiss to not mention anything about it, though I am already late. I don’t want to dwell on the details and specifics but talk about a greater picture. That said, I want to say that no one should be told how to feel in any given situation. Many women are often on guard and easily creeped-out but this a product of past experiences (or stories we’ve heard), not necessarily a product of what...
Read MoreOh my Flying Spaghetti Monster! Ooohya!
Not quite short and sweet enough while in the midst of sexual pleasure? ;) I’ve been asked before what atheists say during sex. Sometimes, I guess someone could be trying to be funny but it can sound derogatory. Why is saying your partner’s name in bed such a foreign idea to some? I may have uttered “oh god” at some point in my life; I can’t be certain. Though, I never actually thought I was talking to some “other-worldly” being. It was just a thing I...
Read MoreScientists Study Why New York Jews with East European Roots Live Longer than Average
Using stem cells, scientists will study why New York Jews with East European roots tend to live longer, even until 100 years old! I’ve also heard that Ashkenazi Jewish women are at a higher rate for breast cancer. Though, breast cancer isn’t in my family. I only have brain, lung, and skin cancer to worry about. D: Despite the fact that many in the culture drink, smoke and eat fatty foods; experts are now hoping to crack the code. In New York, Cornell scientists will study the stem...
Read MoreThe Pro-Life Stance is not Consistent
I read a post on Tumblr earlier today. I reblogged it but then thought it deserved further thought. It begins: Alright. The Pro-LIfe stance pretty much says that the right to life supercedes all other rights. This means that the pregnant persons’ right to bodily domain is superceded by the fetus’ right to be alive. And yet, we never hear a peep out of them in situations in which the right to bodily domain supercedes the right to life. If abortion is to be made illegal and the right to life...
Read MoreNewt Gingrich warns that the US could be at risk of Atheism AND Radical Islam
Wha-wha-wha-what?! Gingrich apparently doesn’t understand what atheism or secularism is. He may have a faint idea of what radical Islam is but he’s probably not too knowledgeable on that either. To conflate radical theocracy with secularism is insurmountably stupid. What most fundamentalist Christians actually want is theocracy. They are much closer to radical Islam than secularism or atheism is. The fact that they remain blind to this similarity is somewhat amazing, but mostly...
