Franklin Graham, the son of Billy Graham, famous American Christian evangelist, was in Harrisburg today. It was part of his tour insisting that one needs to pray for America. He didn't endorse a candidate, but it's not hard to know who he wants to win, mostly because he has said it himself despites the claims … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – and one more instance of Christians telling just a little lie, Franklin Graham

Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – beating back the theocrats again, Pennsylvania
Here, in my lovely home state of Pennsylvania, the PA House of Representatives has been sued by some residents for not allowing a secular e.g. non-theist based invocation before the body. The suit, brought by Americans United for the Separation of Church and State, American Atheists, and members of various local groups here in PA, is … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – beating back the theocrats again, Pennsylvania
Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – AU blog post “Texas Theocrat Says Voting For Trump Is OK Because God Has ‘A Different Standard’”
Amazing the excuses that some Christians will use. "David Barton, the Religious Right’s favorite phony historian, is trying to sell his base on voting for Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump. But where most of Barton’s allies have resorted to pumping up Trump by dumping on Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton, Barton acknowledges Trump’s flaws – … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – AU blog post “Texas Theocrat Says Voting For Trump Is OK Because God Has ‘A Different Standard’”
Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – and now for more questionable Christian nonsense
During the run up to the Reason Rally, Ray Comfort was touting his new movie The Atheist Delusion. This was going to be *the* answer to non-Christians, and it was going to be such a surprise.

Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – so now we have an ark that can’t float, for how many millions of dollars?
Most folks have seen the news stories about the exemplary idiot Ken Ham and his boat shaped building that he has built to supposedly show how true Christianity is. We also have one more large, useless, and somewhat pretty building built to support flagging faith. Now, where in the bible does it say that this … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – so now we have an ark that can’t float, for how many millions of dollars?
Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – a month since the Reason Rally, what happened to those gift cards?
It’s been about a month since the Reason Rally in DC, and I was wondering what happened to those supposed 5,000 gift cards Ray Comfort had ready and waiting for the rally goers if they took a copy of his book. It was announced that these cards would be going to charity. Some atheists praised … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – a month since the Reason Rally, what happened to those gift cards?
Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – the legion of doom, Trump has Michele Bachman as part of his spiritual team
"The religious right movement has struggled for decades to play a leading role in choosing the Republican Party’s presidential nominee, but this year, social conservatives declared early on, would finally be their year. And yet, after doing everything right and carefully following their specific strategy, the GOP ended up going with a thrice-married adulterous casino … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – the legion of doom, Trump has Michele Bachman as part of his spiritual team
What the Boss Likes – Reason Rally 2016
We are back from the Reason Rally 2016 which was June 4th. The weather wasn't looking to promising as we drove down from Harrisburg, low clouds and drizzle, and I was dreading another repeat of 2012. But once we got there the sky lifted with high clouds, and later in the day, the sun peaked out. … Continue reading What the Boss Likes – Reason Rally 2016
Not Polite Dinner Conversation – Reason Rally, and thanks, Ray, for showing that your god doesn’t exist
(welcome folks who have followed the link from John Branyan's post. May I direct you to his comment about his audience?) We're going to the Reason Rally in DC this year. I'm hoping for much nicer weather than last time, where it was quite wet. No ark needed though.
