Good ol’ Pat is beating the drum about Dungeons and Dragons again and how this game has “literally destroyed people’s lives”. Ah, Pat, we can always count on you for a good lie for Jesus! I’m sure that Pat is feverishly pawing at his Chick tracts (absolutely ludicrous Christian tracts that tell a number of … Continue reading What the Boss Likes – Dungeons and Dragons….and Pat Robertson making a fool of himself again

Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – It’s spring and the PA legislator lies are in bloom!
It’s that time of year again, when trees are blooming and legislators give a sop to their constituents, trying to make believe that their version of Christianity is the state religion of Pennsylvania and the US. Last year it was the nonsense about the “Year of the Bible”, which I posted about here, and here, … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – It’s spring and the PA legislator lies are in bloom!
Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – a take on a couple of religious columns from the newspaper
Today we have two great columns from The God Squad (can you be a squad if you are only one guy?) and Billy Graham. The arguments are so poor in both that only together do they provide enough fodder for one post. Since I know I have quite a few Christians following my blog, I … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – a take on a couple of religious columns from the newspaper
Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – We’re admittedly intolerant but please don’t call us bigots!
Recently, with the focus on gay marriage, we’ve heard a lot of theists claiming that they shouldn’t be considered bigots because they do not want to allow the same freedoms for everyone. One of these claims is in my local paper, an opinion piece by John Kass of the Chicago Tribune (the original at the … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – We’re admittedly intolerant but please don’t call us bigots!
Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – that ol’ war on Easter
It's no surprise to anyone that there are a lot of Americans that are amazingly ignorant and very loud about it. Bill O'Reilly is one of the loudest. This time? Well, Bill has this to say "Easter is a good holiday, you don’t have to believe in Jesus…” Video here. This is a lovely sequel to … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – that ol’ war on Easter
Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – How silly the Qu’ran is and a bonus photo of my cat
It seems like Mr. Rogers isn't coming back, though I do hope that isn't the case. This is unsuprising. The usual scenario is that the TrueChristiantm will convince himself that I didn't "really" want to discuss Christianity and he'll tell himself that I wasn't honest. That's a real two-fer in lying. First a cute … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – How silly the Qu’ran is and a bonus photo of my cat
Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – Part 10 – and I’m done …. for now
It is finished! In this last installment of addressing a particular TrueChristiantm’s claims, we have some of the most ridiculous claims. I’m not sure if he thought this was the best he had and he wanted a “strong” finish or if it’s just coincidence. Again, here is the pdf truechristian post 19-23 (EDIT: 02-21-13- our … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – Part 10 – and I’m done …. for now
Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – Part 8 – #19 the first half, geology, misapprehensions about evolution, carbon dating and more quote-mining
We’re on the home stretch now, though the section numbered 19 is probably the longest one. It’s also probably the best for someone like me who wishes to show how creationists are just so silly. The pdf of the text of the last part (sections 19-23) of our TrueChristiantm’s post is here: truechristian post 19-23. … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – Part 8 – #19 the first half, geology, misapprehensions about evolution, carbon dating and more quote-mining
Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – Part 5 – Not so much geology but dueling myths
We are now at section 13. One can see the desperation rise noticeably. I’ve posted the typed text of his post at the end of this paragraph, rather than put it into the body of the blog post. It’s a pdf of sections 13-18 (so I’ll be referring to it in subsequent posts). Be warned, … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – Part 5 – Not so much geology but dueling myths
Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – Prepare yourselves folks
Our current guest Christian, Woody, has decided to post his rebuttal to my flood post on his website. It's not up yet but should be soon and he's even promised a video! He has given me a preview which I am sharing here. He has declared that anyone who tries to comment on this on … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – Prepare yourselves folks
