I got an email this morning from Dr. Darrel Ray, the man behind the Secular Therapy project. Things are continuing to go well! This week the Secular therapy Project exceeded 2,500 registered clients. These are people looking for a therapist that uses evidence-based methods and won’t send them back to church. We are delighted that so many have chosen to look for a therapist at our site. Here is what one person wrote us recently, “After a very bad experience... Read more

You may have noticed a post earlier about red-hot Victorian atheism that was not written by me (indeed, my style now seldom delves into that level of eloquence). If you look under the title you’ll see it was posted by “Dolby”. So who is this fishy Dolby character? He is actually the cartoonist Count Dolby von Luckner. If you have been to a major atheist conference in the last year, you may have noticed the costumed cartoonist (usually in regalia... Read more
The original title for this post was “Who the fuck is this guy, and how did he get on TV?” which is what I exclaimed when watching the clip. But I have an agreement with Patheos not to curse in the titles of my blog posts. David Silverman was on Fox News the other day with some dude named Marius Forte to discuss the American Atheists billboard in Times Square. Forte didn’t want to do that. He did want to... Read more
Victorian. Chances are, that word conjures in your mind either a bewhiskered chap laboring under several layers of wool as he adjusts his morality-enhancing penis chassis and dreams of imperialism, or a demure lady of unspeakable virtue dying in childbirth while putting the finishing touches to a devotional needlepoint. Certainly, there was quite a bit of all that in mid to late 19th century Britain, but what we tend to forget is that the period gave birth to a flood... Read more
Did you know it’s a confirmed historical fact that a dude from the Middle East was white? Megyn Kelly doesn’t know it either, but that doesn’t stop her from saying it with the utmost confidence. In all actuality, a white man in the first century Middle East is nonsensical, but it still makes way more sense than that guy rising from the dead and walking on water, so this isn’t a terrible stretch for TRUE believers like Kelly. She probably... Read more
Michaelyn alerted me to a column in the Kansas State college newspaper by Laura Meyers that must be read to be believed. It’s titled “Being Christian conservative in college has its ups, downs.” It opens with: I am a minority. Not only am I left-handed and red-haired, but I am also a Christian conservative on a college campus. Do you know what that’s like? It’s like being Madonna in a monastery. Does she imagine the majority of the people in... Read more
Saw this image by Zen Pencils this morning and it made me smile. Hopefully it will bring a smile to your grizzled, miserly, atheist faces as well. Read more
David Silverman went on Fox the other day and performed like a champ in the face of three opponents who were as confident as they were illogical (the panel included Bill Donahue who is equally despicable, but more on that shortly). Here’s the clip: Regarding the placing of the Satanic monument, the Rabbi opens with: “If they can find one Satanic member among the founding fathers, maybe Benedict Arnold or Aaron Burr perhaps, then that can be traced back to...
