Positively Non-Religious

Because nothing warms my heart like a good story about evolution :)

I saw this article in the New York Times the other day about atheists in the military. I must admit, I was reasonably shocked to hear of such an outspoken atheist population in the military, given my experiences with current/former military members. It’s pretty much All Jesus, All The Time. I would think it would be really hard to live with these people day in and day out as a nonbeliever. Not sure that they’ll ever gain legitimacy in the chaplaincy, but an interesting notion nonetheless.

More news on the proposed Ark Encounter. Clearly i’m not the only one who is outraged that Kentucky’s taxpayers may be paying for this monstrosity.

They have GOT to be kidding me about this.

Who knew that the Christians were so against something with clear health benefits? No wonder there’s an obesity epidemic in America ;)

A friend of mine sent me this link this morning, and it made me laugh heartily. I especially enjoy the comments at the bottom— given that the article comes from Fox News, I bet you all can guess what they’re like!

What is it about religion that makes people think that murderers are somehow ok people? I rather enjoy the skeptical approach taken by some of the interviewees on the second page, though. I wish there were more of that.

I ran across this blog post today while randomly wandering the internet. She really hits the nail on the head with this. I am often surprised by people’s audacity.

Only good things can come from cool people like us patronizing these apps. Buy one today and get into a debate with your favorite (or least favorite) Christian.
