A group of students at the University of Texas at San Antonio called “Atheist Agenda” is asking students to trade in their religious texts (bibles, prayer books, etc) in exchange for free pornography.
Atheist Agenda was founded at UTSA in 2005 and is “dedicated to the philosophy of free thought, as well as promoting aggressive activism against theology and theological institutions, encouraging non-believers to take pride in their history and community, and providing to them the same fellowship that those of a religious background share.”
Atheist Agenda leaders say porn is no worse than what’s written in some religious texts.
Papa O’Reilly had Richard Dawkins on this week. Watch as Bill says that if you don’t teach kids about other “legitimate theories” (like Intelligent Design) then you’re a fascist.
A Wisconsin man accused of killing his 11-year-old daughter by praying instead of seeking medical care was found guilty Saturday of second-degree reckless homicide.
Folks, there’s absolutely no need to rattle your magic sticks at the sun gods anymore. Score one for science and reason. Tragic that a little girl was the victim of this heinous crime of pure stupidity and rejection of reality.
Dale and Leilani Neumann are charged with second-degree reckless homicide in the 2008 death of their daughter. Their daughter, Madeline, died at their Wisconsin home on Easter after becoming too weak to speak, eat, drink or walk.
Leilani Neumann, 40, has said the family believes in the Bible, which says healing comes from God, and she never expected her daughter to die as they prayed for her. The parents told investigators the girl had not been to a doctor since she was 3.
I don’t recommend clicking this link, but if you do, just be forewarned that it’s a bunch of bible quotes referencing other bible quotes, and how we’re all doomed. http://www.helptheneumanns.com
“In 2008, Christians comprised 76 percent of U.S. adults, compared to about 77 percent in 2001 and about 86 percent in 1990. Researchers said the dwindling ranks of mainline Protestants, including Methodists, Lutherans and Episcopalians, largely explains the shift. Over the last seven years, mainline Protestants dropped from just over 17 percent to 12.9 percent of the population.”
Hey, if the Gideons can put the King Jimmmy Bible in your hotel room for free, then kudos to the Atheist Nation website for sponsoring free streaming of Bill Maher’s humorous anti-religion documentary, “Religulous”. I first wrote about “Religulous” a few months back. Now you watch it online for free…
If you don’t think you can stomach a whole 90 minutes of Bill Maher’s smugness, the point of his acclaimed documentary,”Religulous” is fairly well summed up in his final comments of the film:
