As summer comes to an end, I thought this video was appropriate for a Secular Sunday post (and yes, it’s a Christian making fun of atheists for a change!) The gist of the guy’s bit is what kids would learn at an Atheist Summer Camp and the irony is that Shea and I frequently lament […]

Especially with what we’re seeing in the States with an alleged pedophile endorsing an accused rapist [edit: Kavanagh’s story is blowing up tonight with two new accusers coming forward and *way* worse allegations] who was picked by a serial adulterer (among Trump’s many other mortal sins) – all as part of the party of “family values” – […]
…the fact that Sasha’s recently taken to drawing crosses on her body or the fact that she’s using permanent marker to do it?
