bloated bellies,
pleading eyes,
gangly limbs,
twitch then die.
dirty brown water,
diseased throughout,
brick hard earth,
breaking picks.
scorching sun,
temperatures rising,
science sees a problem,
money says no.
christians peddling misery,
praying equals hope,
hope dwindles…

Last October it was being reported that wanted posters featuring doctors were being distributed around Charlotte, NC. These were similar to ones that were being passed around during the 90's.
Wanted posters were put out showing abortion doctor's home and office addresses, the cars they drove and their personal appearance.
These are some…

So, I was responding to this - specifically the common assertion that "books leave more to the imagination" - and the more I thought about it, the more ways that claim seemed totally bankrupt.
After a point, my response got long enough that I figured it makes more sense here, rather than slamming the discussion there with a wall of text. Without further… Continue

Discussions come up every so often that describe the way some families treat the atheists in their group. Scorn, dismissal; outcasts?
Curious if that is a common trait among very religious parents or general family members.
For my dysfunctional family religion was not a factor in my generation growing up. There was an infrequent nebulous mention…

Probably like many, I get alerts all day every day cluttering my mailbox, usually someone or some idea needing my money.
Today I read an interesting blurb that despite the White House saying they were not going to go after distributors in states where medical marijuana is legal, they raided 28 dispensaries in the last twenty four hours. Made me want…

Well, no. Rational thought is what everyone ought to partake in. Reason is a drink that instead of weakening cognitive processes like alcohol, promotes clarity of thought.
Is that the same to a theist?
No, it is not. Theists maintain their beliefs by repeating this mantra over and over. Smart people suck. It's just that easy! Smart people take…

Even a casual look at current events reveals an astounding picture. The world is in protest, and though there are goals that differentiate the protests, there is one common theme; countries are being looted by the rich.
I've briefly discussed the protests still occurring in the midwest…

Now here's an interesting find:
The Voluntary Human Extinction Movement (pronounced vehement.) It's not that they don't like humans, it's just that they think our species is a hindrance to the natural order of things. Their plan is not of course to kill people, or to stop all medical support so that…
