I’m going to take an entirely irrelevant example that I came across on Reddit to show just what is wrong with humanity. I trust nobody is going to be surprised in the end. This is a completely throw-away example, but I think it illustrates the point.
People are really, really dumb. Continue reading This is Why People are Stupid
This is a case that I just ran into, but it shouldn’t come as a surprise to anyone. I just don’t want people to accuse me of being against religion per se or against politics per se. I am against stupidity, full stop.
So here we go again. Continue reading People Just Want to be Stupid
It’s really sad how many examples of this I can come up with, but Rationality Rules does it again. The video is linked below, it’s long, so you can watch it or not at your leisure, but it’s just one more place where you get a leftist who points at the Christian, accuses them of being wrong and then goes on to do the exact same thing on their own side.
Why are we never surprised by this? Continue reading Here Comes Another One!
So here we go. Continue reading Unrealistic Expectations
So, some idiot showed up on a random subreddit with a bunch of test results proving that he was a hate-filled bigot. Yes, it was a troll, but I went back to the site that he was using to take these tests and decided to take a couple, just for fun.
It only proved that so many of these online tests are such a waste of time because they are judged by an absurd standard. Continue reading Am I a Racist?
I’ve been seeing a lot of atheists online saying this lately and, sadly, they’re just wrong. Culture doesn’t matter. Just because you grow up in a particular culture, that doesn’t make that culture magically true, relevant, or anything else. Just because you’re emotionally comforted by your culture, that doesn’t matter, any more than being emotionally comforted by your religion does.
Rent a clue and join actual reality. Continue reading Culture Doesn’t Matter Either

So I came across this video today over on Nerdrotic where they were showing a video of Bill Maher making fun of the woke leftist mob, comparing them to Mao’s Cultural Revolution. It’s a worthwhile watch, the video is below the fold, but the one thing that I wanted to point out is that all of this sounds an awful lot like something else we’re familiar with around here.
It sounds just like religion. Continue reading Sounds Just Like Religion, Right?
This came up on Facebook earlier today, where someone in a writing group asked if you would rather “go back to age 6, with all of your current knowledge intact” or “have ten million dollars”?
My answer, of course, is neither. Here’s why. Continue reading My Answer to an “Interesting” Question
I see so many people getting this wrong that I thought I’d write a quick post on it. Lots of people misunderstand what the burden of proof is and when they actually have to trot their proof out. It’s really not that hard, but I’ve seen lots of people giving bad information, or at least suggesting bad information.
So here’s how it works. Continue reading The Problem of the Burden of Proof
I’m often critical of a lot of things that Matt Dillahunty says. Granted, I think he’s a skilled debater against a lot of religious topics and he deserves a fair bit of credit for that. Then, sadly, he leaves the reservation of reason when it comes to his social and philosophical views, which are not defensible, not evidence-based and not verifiable in any objective way.
Here comes another case of that. Continue reading Matt Dillahunty is Still Ignorant
