This Will Go Over Well, I’m Sure

MuhammadTube.

Created by Fundamentalist Christians.

MuhammadTube.com/.org/.net, is a video-driven social network that enables people to connect and share with friends, family, co-workers and ministries in an unfiltered medium where it concerns the wickedness and filth that is Islam.

Our endeavor is to show a Christ-like love to all men, and we feel it should be exhibited in our lives by our words as well as our actions.

As one of the Atheist Media Blog‘s commenters points out:

“Our endeavor is to show a Christ-like love to all men”

…except Muslims…

That’s Priceless.

Any bets as to how long this will be around?

Christianity Wins This Round…

Bill experienced definitive proof of God’s existence yesterday.

He was going through his morning routine when he glanced at the ground:

Do you see it…? It’s a message from the Heavens!

Look closer!

Oh, snap! It’s the Ichthys symbol!

Atheists, I only have one question: What now? BAM. Game, set, match. If Comfort and Cameron couldn’t bring you over with their banana, I have full confidence that my two fallen hairs can easily provide all the proof you skeptics could ever need.

The miracle I seek has been found. There is no possible explanation for this. Don’t even try making sense of it.

Bill now needs to take the next logical step:

Sell the hairs on eBay.

Now.

Indexed is in Bookstores Today!

Jessica Hagy‘s book, Indexed, is finally released today!

In case you missed it a couple weeks ago, here is my interview with the always-thought-provoking-and-hilarious author.

Meth Addict’s Problem with Rehab (Hint: God is Involved)

Journalist David Sheff and his son Nic recently appeared on NPR’s Fresh Air to talk about their respective books. Nic was a meth addict (one of many drugs he used) who eventually escaped the addiction. He’s 25-years-old now.

One part of their interview was particularly interesting.

During rehab, Nic experienced a lot of “Godtalk,” such as the kind seen in Alcoholics Anonymous. Both Nic and his dad say it was as if the only way to get sober was to embrace God.

For those who are atheists, this is a tremendous hurdle to overcome in trying to beat an addiction. You don’t want to replace one dependence with another.

The relevant portion of the interview is only about five minutes long and begins at the 20:00 mark.
