Today, our not so very religious but very ignorant president of the US has signed an executive order allowing religious organizations to get more politically active. I think it is disgusting for all of the pandering by the GOP and the receiption of such pandering by TrueChristians but honestly, it’s a great thing for those … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation: where we find “religious freedom” meaning no more than fear and bigotry again

Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – They can’t even get egg rolling right
(as an aside, look like I was wrong about North Korea being the first tail to wag the dog in my last post, see postscript). In this atmosphere where the clown Trump and his circus are threatening the world with destruction thanks to their incompetence, one wouldn’t think that a story about the annual White … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – They can’t even get egg rolling right
Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – No, many conservatives really are this ignorant
I haven't had a Pennsylvania politician post for a while. But oh this one deserves it in spades. Scott Wagner, a Republican (what else?) state representative from the district to the south of me, has said the following about climate change: I haven't been in a science class in a long time, but the earth … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – No, many conservatives really are this ignorant
Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – Why climate change is a state/church issue
The Freedom From Religion Foundation has an excellent news release on this. I am a member and I recommend that you be one too. Trump has appointed an active climate change denialist, religionist Scott Pruitt, to head the EPA. The New York Times documents in an article boldly titled "Denialists in Charge" how federal posts are now filled … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – Why climate change is a state/church issue
Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – the flying spaghetti monster and a Christian walk into a bar…
It shouldn’t amaze me anymore, but it does. The deceit that pastors and priest practice on their flocks knows no shame. Recently, Dave, the pastor from a church in England who I have addressed before, has been on a tear to insist that atheists are wrong. As usual, an atheist can’t comment on his posts … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – the flying spaghetti monster and a Christian walk into a bar…
Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – hmmm, God or Tyvek(tm)
This is Ray "Banana Man" Comfort's latest little trick Shucks, it's a tract printed on Tyvek(tm) or some similar tear-resistant material. So, poor ol' Ray has to depend on modern science to try to pretend that there is something magical happening. Funny how a pair of scissors or a nice knife can overwhelm this sad … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – hmmm, God or Tyvek(tm)
Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – a gathering of thoughts about various recent events.
Vermin-in-Chief Ray Comfort, the fellow who tried to get atheists to take his book by giving out food gift certificates and was shamed in to giving said certificates to people who need food (still $7,000 unaccounted for), wants to tell his followers to tell the Jewish people that they are so very “angry” about the … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – a gathering of thoughts about various recent events.
Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – three different Christians and questions answered
I’ve encountered a few very different Christians recently. We have Dave, a pastor, who believes in diversity, but also believes that Christianity supports violence as long as they benefit; Rina who says that she must take everything in the bible literally because if you don’t, what is to stop you from finding a resurrected dead … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – three different Christians and questions answered
Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – Not today
This is what happens when you don’t punch Nazis. Rather than putting up the usual pictures of pits full of starved, shot and tortured people. I thought this was more fitting. The people who were murdered in concentration camps were being harvested. This is what those who support America First wanted to allow to … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – Not today
Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – wannabee theocrats marching in DC today
Today there is a “march for life” in Washington, DC. There are a lot of women there, who insist that they are feminists. There may be some men who also would claim this, since being a feminist isn’t limited by sex. They all declare that they are “for life”, aka against abortion and birth control. … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – wannabee theocrats marching in DC today
