Muslims can’t touch dogs?!?

How did I manage to stay totally ignorant for 36 years of the number one reason Muslims are batshit insane?
A St. Cloud State University student in a teacher-training program at Technical High School left the school in late April because he says he feared for the safety of his service dog.
The school district […]

The Daily Dog: religion.

People are always seeing the Virgin Mary in tree bark and oil stains, why not in a Ridgeback? I mean no blaspheme. I’m just saying.
Speaking of, it may interest some of you to know that I just finished reading ‘Mere Christianity’ by C.S. Lewis. John Hawkins sent it off my Amazon Wish […]

Atheist, agnostic, humanist, or skeptic?

Heads up: this is NOT a religious debate post. It’s a definition post. The freaky thing is, I was thinking about writing this hours before some commenters in the last thread brought it up amongst themselves. So now I am compelled.
Whenever I write or say something in which I feel […]

Straight to hell.

I’m not capable of refraining from posting about this article, which says that the Pope has added contraception to the list of “Deadly Sins”.
[The Catholic Church] holds mortal sins to be “grave violations of the Ten Commandments and the Beatitudes,” including murder, contraception, abortion, perjury, adultery and lust.
The Catechism of the Catholic Church […]

Oh for criminy’s sake.

Are these people serious?

And they wonder why they’re the laughingstock of the planet. Oohh! Jihad on the scary evil holiday!
Every time I see something like this, I feel like I’m watching children throwing fits over juice and crackers. When they burn American flags, I get a little pissed, but when […]

In case you ever wondered what I think about the War on Christmas.

(I really do still have a job. Wouldn’t seem that way, what with all the crazy blogging, one post after another! It’s nuts! But see, my main doctor/account is on vacation. This is not cool since it means I don’t have enough work to do and my next paycheck will be […]

Do they talk about spaceships in church?

The UFO discussion got me thinking about something I’ve always puzzled over, which is how Christians view the possibility of extraterrestrials. I don’t remember it ever coming up at church when I was a kid so I ask you.
Do Christians (you reading this, specifically) believe that humans on earth are the only sentient […]

You can too debate religion on the internet. [UPDATED]

Proofy McProoferson. At least 120 people are up for this discussion so it continues.
First, it’s cool how cool everyone is being. I’m glad most of you understood the spirit of my question and answered it in the same spirit. Only two comments made me want to punch someone, but […]

This should turn out really, really well.

Sometimes I get in the mood to debate Christians. WHY? Dunno. The comment debate last week got me thinking and there’s something I have always wanted to do on this blog but never had the cojones for until now. Because I think by now I’ve established that I’m not a snarky […]

COOL.

I’m a total geek for this kind of thing. Every show I can find on the Discovery Channel or the Science Channel that’s about space/physics/the universe, it goes on my DVR. The last several books I read (although it’s been a couple of years) were about quantum physics. I’m not making that […]

I wish I had an hour to bitch about this.

Too much work to do this morning or I’d go into detail about how the Prophet Muhammad had sex with goats and Islamists are towel-headed troglodytes. I must satisfy myself by just telling you to read this and maybe in the comments, you can insult Islam in my stead.
Here’s a bit of […]
