Bay of Fundie

I don’t know if I’m going to make this a monthly feature or not. Fundies Say the Darndest Things is a pretty funny web site. If you don’t go by there occasionally, you’re missing out on some great entertainment. Every day, the site collects some of the craziest things that fundies say around the internet [...]

Our good “friend” Bill Johnson of the American Decency Association has published his year-in-review (note that this link is a PDF), in which he congratulates himself for annoying the hell out of the rest of us. It’s a big document, so let’s get started mocking it! “It Must be Pornographic! I Can See an Ankle!” [...]

How many expected that it would turn into nothing more than a way of spamming us with Viagra emails and delivering videos of Mentos and Diet Coke? Well, among the chaff you [...]

I found this by way of Driftglass’ blog. Of course, they could have just as easily done this with Jesus instead of Santa. (If you can’t see the above, you’re probably using Internet Explorer. For shame! Here’s the original YouTube page.)

Here’s the second of my two-part review of Exodus Revealed, which airs occasionally on the National Geographic Channel. I’ll summarize this part of the Exodus story, for those of you who weren’t paying attention in Sunday school. That would probably include me. Here’s how I remember it: The Israelites run away but hit a roadblock [...]
