Free Speech is Just a Suggestion

I know I shouldn’t be surprised but when this kind of thing comes up, the stupidity of the left never really surprises me.

Someone posted that some subreddit or another was posting something they didn’t like and, of course, that meant that it had to be stopped and wanted Reddit to delete the subreddit and ban everyone involved. No, nothing actually violated Reddit’s AUP, it just made leftists mad and therefore, mass cancellation was called for. Continue reading Free Speech is Just a Suggestion

The Absurdity of the Free Will Argument

Most discussions about free will become complete clusterfucks, mostly, I’m convinced, because everyone is talking past everyone else. It’s just happened yet again so I thought it was a good opportunity to put down some thoughts about why I think free will, at least as I’m going to define it, exists and why hard determinism is such a waste of time. Continue reading The Absurdity of the Free Will Argument

Confronting “Confronting Christianity”

A while back, I looked at a video by Andy Bannister where he recommended a book called Confronting Christianity by Rebecca McLaughlin. At the time I responded, the book hadn’t been released and I said that I might take a look at it once it was out.

Now it’s out and wow, if Andy is at all impressed by this, he’s got something severely wrong with him. Yes, we all know that’s true, but let’s take a look anyhow. Continue reading Confronting “Confronting Christianity”

The Absurd Hypocritical Nature of the Left

Here’s something that I’ve noticed a lot lately and it goes a long way to showing just how clueless the political left actually are.

Personal Experience Doesn’t Justify God

I’ve seen Matt Dillahunty say this a couple of times but I’ve always disagreed. The idea is that someone who thinks they have had an experience with the divine, that somehow justifies a belief in a god. Except it doesn’t. Only an *ACTUAL* experience with a *DEMONSTRABLE* deity would justify a belief that such a god was actually there.

Let me know when someone manages to do that. Continue reading Personal Experience Doesn’t Justify God

Dog-piling on Richard Dawkins

Not long ago, Richard Dawkins posted the above tweet and the leftist world shit it’s collective pants. What the hell else is new? Yet this time, I think people are starting to recognize the standard progressive dog whistle isn’t actually working. Lots of very influential people on the atheist and skeptical side are starting to ask questions and recognizing that this isn’t actually making any sense. So here’s my take on it and why none of this is actually a surprise.

Hope you enjoy.
