Richard Dawkins
Mitch Daniels IN Gov. full of Faith, Delusion, and Ignorance.
Indiana Governor Mitch Daniels recently went public with his ignorance of American history and paranoia about Athesist destroying the “real world”. Click here. He wants Atheists to “think very carefully”. I have the same advice back at you Mitch my boy! I have thought very carelfully, and it is precisely becasue I think that I [...]
Richard Dawkins “An atheist’s call to arms”
I’ve just finished watching the TED talk from almost exactly a year ago featuring Richard Dawkins. His lecture was reminiscent of many of the reasons I continue to write and blog about religion and freethought.

More like “guidelines”, really.
I found myself rereading a part of Richard Dawkins’ rather succinct book The God Delusion today; specifically, the chapter entitled The ‘Good’ Book and the Moral Zeitgeist, pages 263 and 264. Dawkins briefly mentions a common list of “New Ten Commandments” he searched for on the internet. He then goes on to add some personal [...]
“No God” slogan to run on UK buses
London buses will soon be running an ad on the side that says “There’s probably no god. Now stop worrying and enjoy your life.”

New Atheists are not great, Christianity Today’s response
I just stumbled across this article on Christianity Today, New Atheists Are Not Great, a rather poorly written “review” of Dinesh D’Souza’s book, What’s So Great About Christianity. I say “review” only because the whole thing comes off as a thinly veiled rebuttal to the popularity enjoyed by the Four Horseman (Hitchens, Dawkins, Harris and [...]
