Hi Think Atheist community it has been recently reported in a few news articles across the web that the Shroud of Turin (otherwise known as the Shroud of Jesus) is the real deal due to an alleged new found evidence.  This comes as quite a surprise to me as it was sometime ago originally claimed to have been proven as a fake. 

The original findings concluded and I quote:

" the Shroud was made in the 13th century, then it isn't a relic of…

 BONUS DAY! Playing catch-up with other places I'm posting this web comic series... so here's three Tractoon pages in one day, PLUS the new Adventure Theatre! comic.…

Either one - atheist or cartoonist - is expected to be controversial. I've had toons printed on a number of occasions, and know enough to know everything's changed since the days of light tables and, y'know, ink. Web comics are where it's at, dig it?

Emperor Constantine was undoubtedly one of the major sparks that helped explode the Gnostic cult of Christianity into a full blown mega-religion. That's just one of many things covered in this informative book:…

This week on the Think Atheist Radio Show– our 52nd show; one full year's worth of killer interviews for you guys!– we're featuring our interview with…

It's a common theme among those with faith. They say something that just makes you go 'Wait...what?'. I'm sure most of you have seen the video in these pictures. (if not, look it up, it's fantastic). My friend posted it on FB and I watched it and I noticed that a friend of hers had commented below. I responded in kind. It's a bit to read, but it was a civil conversation, if not a bit strained on my end.

 Previously, I discussed the idea that we can now definitively show that there was no single couple from which all of humanity descended, and discussed a few points made by ProfMTH, namely that Paul references Adam in same way he references Jesus. To me, this seemed a clear and inescapable contradiction to a foundational principle of Christianity, since Paul is obviously wrong in referencing Adam. Now this assertion faced…

Republican presidential wannabe Rick Perry has no regard for science, alleging that man-made global warming is a hoax, and that creationism ought to be taught in classrooms. Here are some of his Godly ravings. Let them be a warning. And what does it say about the US political system that things get so bad that (nearly) every Republican front runner has to be a moron and that the Republicans aren't political pariahs despite this? Amongst the Republican candidates the only ones that believe in…

Someone shared this link with me today. http://www.theblaze.com/stories/is-jesus-christ-a-socialist/

It's a good read but the best part was the poll at the bottom of the article:
"Do you think Jesus was a socialist?"

If you have a minute, cast your vote today!

I've been pretty interested in perception lately, and how our brains decipher the world around us. I've written on Pareidolia (Part 1, Part 2,…

God tells Adam and Eve not to eat of the fruit of the tree of knowledge of good and evil. If this was the only way they could understand the difference between good and evil, how could they have known that it was wrong to disobey God and eat the fruit?" ~Laurie Lynn

You can't be mad the little rascal, he's so adorable.

But seriously, what were those Theists thinking?

That wise and highly educated man calculated the date of the rapture, when we will all meet Cheesus Christ.

May 21st of this year is thought by quite a few religious crazies (sometimes ad hominem attacks really are all they deserve)…

I’m putting together a playlist for my rapture party on Saturday.  If you haven’t heard, Jesus is coming back on Saturday and you’re fucked.  We’re gonna party like there’s no tomorrow.  See http://wecanknow.com/ to find out how much trouble you’re in.  Anyhow, I’m open to suggestions for the playlist, but I’m trying to stay away from metal, too many obscure tunes, and too many downers.  I need some armageddon-themed tune…
