Pop-Up Bible Heroes, Part 1

Thursday, September 6th, 2007

I recently happened upon this mini-monstrosity in a used bookstore: Yes, it’s a little popup book of Bible Heroes! The thing isn’t more than about 4″ x 5″, and it’s only ten pages long. I read the thing, but it somehow didn’t feel complete. But what was missing? Dialog! That’s it, dialog! I’m always concerned [...]

ADA Demands Burkhas for Cosmo

Thursday, September 6th, 2007

(The ADA’s “solution” to the great offender. Frankly, I think they should be more worried about the candy next to the magazine. Obesity is a bigger problem than articles about sex.) The self-proclaimed American Decency Association has decided that Cosmopolitan is filthy smut that you shouldn’t have to look at. Notice I didn’t say that [...]

The Flat-Earth Bible

I made an offhand crack in an earlier article that implied that creationists must believe in a flat Earth. I didn’t think that was really true. I knew the Bible had some misinformation about the Earth in it, but I wasn’t aware that the book is so thoroughly flat Earth. It is, through and through! [...]

Why Creationists Say There’s No Proof

I pulled this from Failed Clone of God. Does anybody recognize the artist?

Needed: One Villain from Central Casting

Tuesday, September 4th, 2007

One of the best things to do on a lazy Saturday afternoon is to curl up with a good pulp magazine. Here’s a story from the August 1936 issue of Thrilling Mystery (See this recent post for the cover scan to this issue): The story is called “The Grave Gives Up”, by Jack D’Arcy. Check [...]

New Header

Monday, September 3rd, 2007

As you can see, I changed the header to the blog. Doing so managed to break a couple of other things, which I hope to have fixed soon. Anyway, if you have a reaction to the new design (either positive or negative), you can leave a comment on this post. Firefox users: For some reason, [...]

Carnival of the Godless #74, Pulp Edition!

Sunday, September 2nd, 2007

Carnival of the Godless #74 is up over at Atheist FAQ. This week it’s the pulp edition! By a weird coincidence (or is it a weird menace coincidence?), I’ve actually written a pulp article, which I’m planning to post this Tuesday. If I had known, I would have posted it in time for this week’s [...]
