Free Flores Girl Audio Podcast at PodiobooksCreationists and Critical Thinking
“If only we laymen could simply trust our scientists, without thinking critically for ourselves, as we once trusted priests and rabbis.”
Ah, if only our Mid-Eastern fundamentalists religions did not require such blind adherence to their faith then the world, never mind you know where I’m going with this. Spirituality doesn’t have to be this way and to quote another great spiritual leader, the Buddha regarding critical thinking:

Gallup Poll: Most Americans are Creationists
These creationist Gallup poll results are not surprising when you realize that many Americans come from strong fundamentalist roots and, in general abhor, learning science. And,yes I do believe laziness and blind religious beliefs go hand in hand. Come on be honest; isn’t it easier to say god did it rather than to say Deoxyribonucleic acid? Also, evolution and science have come under political attack as humanist ploys that undermine religious faith as the United States teeters between conservative and liberal factions.

Christine O’Donnell, the Occult and Mastrubating Without Lust
“We need to address sexuality with young people,” she said in an interview that aired on MTV in the 1990s. “The Bible says that lust in your heart is committing adultery. [And] you can’t masturbate without lust.”

Insensitivity and Farce Abounds between Christians and Muslims
Oh, did I mention that the Florida pastor and a local Imam are coming to New York to work out some sort of deal? Only the Imam in New York is having nothing to do with this folly. In the meantime the liberals attack the Florida pastor while the conservatives have their way with the Imam in New York. You got to love the way religion brings us all together, right? All of this nonsense feeds the atheist notion that religion is for quacks and fools especially when that paradigm of sensitivity, the Donald Trump, has decided to join the fracas. You know, the “You’re fired” guy who has the comb-over that defies both the gods and nature, wants in on the action. He offered to buy the proposed mosque site from the developer for 25% over the original selling price. The developer is not interested claiming Donald just wants the publicity. Really?

Sorry, Catholic Church says Male-Only Priesthood
Sorry Father Wang, it’s hard to believe that any god would be so personally vested in penises and testicles but apparently the Catholic Church clergy thinks so. Think it has anything to do with the fact that they all sport penises? Nothing like keeping the boy’s club alive, huh?
Medal of Honor Now Features the Taliban
The problem with this is that this role playing in Medal of Honor is that it will feed into the existing pool of disaffected second generation Muslim men in the west who are looking for any cause to believe in. Of course, the fact that this is the same cause that thinks it’s okay to gas their own Muslim school girls because they have the audacity to ask for an education is an entirely different matter in their hateful minds. At the same time the game makers are laughing all the way to the bank.

Expelled: No Intelligence Allowed Bootlegs Revisited
Well in two years two things have transpired. First, I finally sat or should I say laid down to watch this this Ben Stein snore fest and while there may not be any bootlegs there are some Expelled torrents currently available. score one for Ben! Accompanying the torrents is usually some acerbic exchanges but frankly overall the movie was a flop in galvanizing the Christina fundamentalists and the Obama election was big blow to their movement.
No Stoning, it’s not in the Quran
But while Sakineh Mohammedie Ashitani has been granted a reprieve, she is not the only woman sentenced to be stoned for adultery in Iran. Marx made the comment about “religion being the opium of the masses.” I got news for you folks, religion is more like crack for the masses.

Weird: Human Sex with Neanderthals and Hobbits
Whether they are robust brutes or tiny midgets, it appears humans just can’t seem to stop getting it on with other species. Scientists noticed a increase genetic diversity in Indo-Pacific peoples, dating to around 40,000 years ago. The timing of this genetic spike makes it highly unlikely that the diversity came from sexual romps of humans with Neanderthals simply because those brutes were not into warm weather unless there was a prehistoric spring break that has yet to be discovered. That leaves several likely suspects, including Homo erectus and perhaps Homo floresiensis, the dwarf hobbits of Flores Island that were kicking around 13,000 years ago.

“The Earth will end only when God declares it’s time to be over. Man will not destroy this Earth. This Earth will not be destroyed by a flood… God’s word is infallible, unchanging, perfect.” -Rep. John Shimkus
