Autoerotic Quasi-Pedophilia or…?

Published on 2012-05-11 22:49:17

Jamie Lynne Grumet, 26, of Los Angeles, defends her recent controversial Time Magazine sprawl by saying her 4 year old toddler is “more compassionate and reasoning” than other children his age who haven’t stood on a stool and sucked their college momma’s titties for an allowance. You see, Jamie Grumet is a second-generation “attachment parent”, [...] > read more

The Contrived War On House-Moms

Published on 2012-05-10 20:37:36

Two things happened not too long ago: Hilary Rosen said something true and Hilary Rosen apologized for it — because the last thing you want to do in America these days is offend someone with a fact statement — religion has taught us that. Though in many instances, not only is the apology fake, the [...] > read more

Political Flip-Flopping Extravaganza

Published on 2012-05-09 20:27:31

The past few months have been an entertaining spectacle in politics as we’ve watched Mitt the Moderate desperately reinvent himself into a right wing facsimile at the urging of a party otherwise ashamed to adopt him. He’s the son the new conservatives never wanted despite emerging as the victorious ambassador amongst a menagerie of unpalatable [...] > read more

Quantum Mechanics & Other Holy Fucks

Published on 2012-04-04 17:10:00

Why is there something rather than nothing? For some this is a profound question; for others it is a mere exercise in futility as useless as the Pope’s balls. Yet a perennial question of this magnitude may speak to our undying commitment to better understand ourselves by better understanding our cosmological mother. Building on the [...] > read more

You Are A Star — Shine On.

Published on 2012-03-10 08:38:45

Imagine for a moment that you are all alone in a field in some far off land on earth — and this land is ripe for your arrival — just you. Absolutely isolated, incomprehensibly alone, you approach a blooming field on the slopes of an adorned hill called Ignorantia where the flowers stand healthy, tall, [...] > read more

A Rush To Moral Judgment

Published on 2012-03-10 04:00:27

Radio personality Rush Limbaugh recently made a number of personal attacks against Georgetown law student Sandra Fluke, not unlike personal smears attune to Robert Smigel’s Triumph, the Insult Comic Dog. Perhaps the only nuance, despite that both are paid above working class salary, is that one man is paid to opine and the other is [...] > read more

The Comparative Evils of Atheism and Theism

Published on 2012-03-08 11:51:56

If there’s one thing I know to be true it’s that a religious debate isn’t a religious debate until someone plays the body count card. While an atheist is often quick to point out the atrocities of the Catholic Church (which I sometimes do and will do here), the theist is quick to parry by [...] > read more

My Atheism Explained

Published on 2012-03-02 19:25:42

For those of you who personally know me or have gleaned insight from my writing, you’ve likely come to understand I rarely have a kind thing to say on behalf of religion, specifically monotheism; even more specifically, the desert-bred institutions of the Abrahamic god. I suppose I could applaud the humanitarian accomplishments of the Abrahamic [...] > read more

What If Satan Is Really This Guy?

Published on 2012-02-29 21:08:11

If you were the egomaniacal champion of deception since humanity’s genesis known according to biblical orthodoxy as The Father of Lies, what would you suppose your greatest lie to be? Certainly this lie would have to be one unrivaled in its degree of deceit, dotingly believed by billions of people incapable of distinguishing this lie [...] > read more

The Cult of the Pro-Life Obsession

Published on 2012-02-23 15:58:54

Allow me to take you back many years ago when I was sitting in a breakfast diner having a philosophical debate with a devout Evangelical friend of mine. As my friend and I sat nestled in the cozy confines of an isolated booth we descended into a heartfelt impasse over the moral complexities of abortion, [...] > read more

The Science Behind Near-Death Experiences

Published on 2012-02-16 00:46:04

One phenomenon that intrigues me and has some interest in the scientific community is the near-death experience (NDE, coined by Raymond Moody). The phenomenon is interesting because it raises legitimate philosophical questions about the nature of reality, mind/brain dualism, and the postmortem properties of consciousness. A near-death experience generally refers to a broad range of [...] > read more

Is Obama’s Mandate A Free Exercise Violation?

Published on 2012-02-13 18:53:41

In the midst of the Catholic Church hierarchy demanding that Obama rescind his Affordable Care Act mandate, the prevailing issue in the blogsphere is whether or not an optional service in a health insurance mandate violates the free exercise of religion. This debate is all the more disputable on either side of the issue because [...] > read more

Women vs. The Patriarch

Published on 2012-02-10 23:23:17

Unless you’re living under a rock — and I don’t mean Catholics that wish they were under Peter (Peter means rock in Greek) — you’re aware of the controversy surrounding President Obama and the pedophile vote he’s comfortable to lose. You see, President Obama not only believes in equality healthcare, he respects women and freedom [...] > read more

Is Our Republic A Christian Nation?

Published on 2012-02-09 21:13:45

This topic is a horse, a dead one, and I’m about to beat it — again. In doing so I can only hope to scatter the flies to reveal something fresh on the carcass that is digestible to curious minds. In my experience this debate almost entirely is predicated on a thorough understanding of American [...] > read more

The Obama Radical

Published on 2012-01-24 17:24:25

Radical is an interesting word. In one very real sense, to be radical is a good thing. In fact, a radical medical procedure is one that might be unconventional though is purposed to achieve the greatest curative results. While to be radical typically means a characterized departure from tradition, it also is often identified with [...] > read more

Thank You, Christopher Hitchens

Published on 2011-12-16 17:51:36

I prefer to say my hero did not die today, rather a Great Oak fell in the woods — an oak named Christopher Eric Hitchens — and it made a sound. That sound can be heard in all the pregnant vibrations emanating from the pool of collective conscience, a legion of truth-seekers whose only mistress [...] > read more

Humanism: The Great Thanksgiving

Published on 2011-11-25 00:55:21

  I am thankful for the sober and committed secular Humanist movement making progress in its cogent sweep. I am thankful for its sublime lighthouses — so named Baruch Spinoza, Thomas Paine, Thomas Jefferson, Authur C. Clarke, Albert Einstein, Stephen Jay Gould, Steven Pinker, Carl Sagan, Jean Paul-Sartre, Kurt Vonnegut, Richard Dawkins, Sam Harris, Daniel [...] > read more

Jesus: A Good, Moral Teacher?

Published on 2011-10-24 19:18:15

Even amongst people who don’t believe Jesus was God incarnate it’s quite common for them to say in conversation that the historical Jesus was a good person. This is problematic for me considering any objective history of the person of Jesus is lost and we are left only to attribute a portraiture to him by [...] > read more

Steve Jobs In Two Minutes

Published on 2011-10-24 15:40:16

Steve Jobs ultimately applied the connectivity concept within Eastern transcendentalism to the electronic world (Apple’s Facetime played largely on this point). He believed in human/family solidarity by a MEANS of connectedness and saw computers as a practical reality to actually make that happen — and this played into his own strengths, in his own field, [...] > read more
