One Guideline for Modesty

Thursday, May 20th, 2010

We’ve been ignoring BJ from the American Decency Association for a little too long, so I decided to check up on him. It turns out he decided to let somebody else say something stupid for him this week. He refers us to the blog of a Christian publisher named Michael Hyatt, who wrote [...]

Bad Fundies!

Wednesday, April 21st, 2010

I’ve spent the last hour looking for a good fundie “news” article to rip apart. I’ve come up empty-handed. This is happening to me more and more often. Everything they’re writing these days is so derivative. It’s all the same old crap.
“Contraception is abortion!”
“America was founded by and [...]

Three Articles to Check Out

Wednesday, February 17th, 2010

I came across three interesting articles this last week. I thought I’d pass them along.
Somebody Went Postal on Him
Over at the WFMU blog is “The Ballad Of The Walking Postman”. It’s a tale from the Civil Rights Era. Here’s what WFMU says about it:

129th Skeptics’ Circle: How the Discovery Channel has Fallen

Thursday, January 28th, 2010

I haven’t been trying to neglect the blog lately. I was hoping to cut back to two or three articles per week, not two or three weeks per article. It’s amazing how merely re-prioritizing the blog from #1 hobby to #2 hobby has robbed it of so much attention. [...]

Christianity is Real, Unlike that Fraud Jeane Dixon

Monday, November 2nd, 2009

Charlie Butts at OneNeuronNow always knows reality when he sees it, so let’s look at his latest article, “She searched, God found”:
Lulu Auger has written a book titled Lulu in which she chronicles her encounter with the occult.
Usually when somebody is screaming about the occult, you think of Satanists and baby sacrifices and poodles (not [...]

Public Access Religious Horror

Thursday, October 22nd, 2009

Public access TV may be a dying “art”. It used to be that when a company wanted to get the cable-TV franchise for a city, the city would insist on getting their own channel out of the deal. Very often, the rules allowed any city resident to put their own TV show onto [...]

Marge Simpson: The Gateway Porn

Friday, October 16th, 2009

I don’t even know where to begin with this one. The American Family Association is upset that Marge Simpson is posing for Playboy. The AFA has gone beyond self-parody now.
They’ve decided to target 7-11 in this campaign. That’s a big easy target that can stand in for Playboy itself. The fundies [...]
