PZ Myers Bans Another
As I mentioned before, given their authoritarian tendencies, Gnu atheists tend to heavily censor their blogs. So it is no surprise that PZ Myers bans another dissenting voice from his blog. David Marshall documents the whole exchange that led to … Continue reading
Don’t be fooled by Dawkins
Richard Dawkins’ twisted attempts to insist it is better to sexually abuse a child than to teach that child about hell cannot be defended by anyone who is intellectually honest and has a moral compass. Nevertheless, because of the cultish … Continue reading
Yucky?
Richard Dawkins’ twisted sense of morality is on display again. First, we’ve seen that he thinks a wife who finds out her husband is cheating on her should just remain silent and put up with it. Now, he’s back to … Continue reading

I forgot to mention the best moment from Jerry Coyne’s reply to Michael Shermer. Coyne writes: Yes, maybe aliens could do that, and maybe it would be an alien trick to imitate Jesus (combined with an advanced technology that could … Continue reading
