Vegans can never enter god’s kingdom, according to Jesus
I’m vegan, have been almost my entire adult life. There are many other atheist vegans out there, by the way, although admittedly we are a minority in a minority. And I’m not here to argue animal rights. I really don’t … Continue reading

Don’t stand in the way of science in the name of god if you don’t know what god is

Bible Contradictions #42: When did Baasha die?
The bible is filled with murderous thugs, and Baasha is a great example. This Old Testament king of the Israelite Kingdom of Israel murdered his way to the throne, killing his predecessor and his predecessor’s entire family. Sometime before (or after) his … Continue reading
Quran Contradictions #6: What should we do with non-believers?

Can god lead to global peace?: Maybe, but not in the way religious people think
I studied international politics, both in my undergrad and my graduate studies. We were less concerned with international relations (diplomacy and the inner workings of the state in global affairs) as we were with international studies, which is differentiated from international relations … Continue reading

The Mothman — popularized by John Keel in the book (and subsequent film) The Mothman Prophesies — is a cryptid (in other words, unproven and most likely fake) creature. But this creature is widely believed to exist, for reasons that baffle … Continue reading

Book of Ezra can’t do simple addition
We learn to add one plus one before we even start our schooling. By time we’re ten we should be able to perform relatively complicated arithmetic. So the following math problem should not be too difficult for anyone: 30 + 1,000 … Continue reading

An entire book of the bible is a trashy romance novel bordering on pornography
Song of Songs (or Song of Solomon) is one of the more interesting books of Judeo-Christian-Islamic* canon. It’s pretty much porn. The “song” is allegedly about Mick Jagger’s “Brown Sugar” … ahem. It’s about a black woman … Well, it’s … Continue reading
