first, do make sure you tune in tonight to check out Greg's interview with philosopher of religion Dr. Matt McCormick! Greg and Dr. McCormick talk about some basic issues in philosophy of religion and then move on to talking about undermining a belief in the resurrection by pointing to witchcraft in Salem Massachusetts (the Salem Witch Trials). it's excellent stuff that's instantly usable in debates…

As an opener I'd like to state that my worldview has absolutely nothing to do with my atheism. I like to think that were I a theist I would still hold life, the universe, and everything in exactly the same regards. This post is not intended to answer any questions about nor explain my view on theism. Correlation does not imply causation. That being said, let us proceed.

Where did we…

I saw this today on my Facebook's homepage. Although the situation may not be funny, what my "ghetto" cousin said makes it so. Also, I edited the first part of the page. The OP had mentioned his full name, address, and everything. Since I couldn't find anything in the news about it, I decided to not disclose his personal information.…

I am a former Atheist. Oh, I grew up in the Church. My parents were Catholic, but that didn’t work for me – and sometime in junior high I told them I didn’t believe in God. That honestly may have been just a case of a teenager trying to get under his parent’s skin, but as time went on my doubt became real. In high school I started preparing for a career as a journalist – was trained to question everything. I spent my adult life in that line of work and saw and reported on a number of…

This is a shortened version of my second post in a series on the New Testament Gospels. My first post was on whether the Gospel writers were eyewitnesses. Now, I’ll turn my attention to the contradictions between the Gospels.

Regardless of what anyone says, the Gospels do contain prima facie…

So, I'm watching The 19th Wife on LMN--a movie with murder and Mormons--when the doorbell rings and a couple of young Jehovah's Witness bible thumpers want to read me some scripture and give me a booklet. This isn't the first time this group has visited my house, but it was the first time I was home alone and the one to answer the door. As soon as I knew what was about to happen I regretted my decision to answer the door immediately. They were very young--I'm 22 and they were noticeably…

At 10:36 pm on a Thursday night somewhere in Upstate New York, Jesus Christ himself walked through the door of an all night diner.  The diner, which for the past few years had gone by the name of Jeff’s (named after the owner himself), had been owned…

A friend of mine just sent this to me and I thought I would share for some laughs!

Well everyone, it seems as though we did get it all wrong. While shopping I came across this gem of the holiday season and, clearly, the true meaning of christmas: sparkly jesus.

Honestly, this is some peoples idea of worship and praising their…
