Every December, the stories about “The War on Christmas” pop up once again, like mole heads in a fair game – how various people in society – the politically correct, civil libertarians, atheists – are oppressing Christians by trying to neuter Christmas, make everyone say “Happy Holidays” instead of “Merry Christmas”, and forego the holiday’s religious elements for commercial/secular ones (read […]

Atheist Advent Calendar – Day 16 – Music Monday – “Which suggests that God’s omniscience/Is nullified by His ambivalence/Unless it turns out that He’s impotent/And if God can’t get a boner/I guess that explains the plethora/Of huge erections in His honour”
Nothing controversial here… 😉 “Ten Foot Cock and a Few Hundred Virgins” – Tim Minchin
Atheist Advent Calendar – Day 15 – Christopher Hitchens RIP
Amazing man. Watch this…
Atheist Advent Calendar – Day 9 – Music Monday – “You only need to pray in a particular spot/To a particular version of a particular god/And if you pull that off without a hitch/He will fix one eye of one middle-class white bitch”
This story of Sam’s has but a single explanation: a surgical God who digs on magic explanations. It couldn’t be mistaken attribution of causation, born of a coincidental temporal correlation, exacerbated by a general lack of education vis-a-vis physics in Sam’s parish congregation. And it couldn’t be that all these pious people are liars. It […]
Atheist Advent Calendar – Day 6 – Are Religions Unfair To Women?
It’s a long documentary so let’s just say the short answer (at least in my view) is: yes! Given what day it is today, I can’t help but think about the fourteen female engineering students killed twenty-four years ago today. They weren’t murdered for religious reasons. But as part of my thoughts on this sad day […]
Atheist Advent Calendar – Day 2 – Music Monday – “I know the Good Book’s good/Because the Good Book says it’s good/I know the Good Book knows it’s good/Because a really good book would”
I suspect Tim Minchin will be making up the content of all my Music Monday posts for Atheist Advent! 😉 “The Good Book” – Tim Minchin
Saturday Snap – Studies in Motion
Sasha has started crawling (there’s an unfortunate face plant at the end of this clip so you may want to stop early if you’re squeamish.) While Sasha has just started being mobile, Pace is pretty much the definition of constant motion…
An Analysis of My YouTube Channel
I’ve been uploading videos to YouTube since 2006. This was the year we got our first digital camera. It was also the year when I was doing my Masters degree so I was very interested in all kinds of online services including online broadcasting. We were also living far from home so it was […]
Music Monday – “Your love is like an ocean/That always takes me home/Whispering wind is blowing/Telling me I’m not alone” #gc101 #greycup #yqr #riders
Well, in the end, the Riders held on to win the Grey Cup yesterday in a game (and really an entire season) that felt pre-destined. The Grey Cup losses in 2009 & 2010, the Grey Cup being held in Regina for only the third time in its history (and last time at historic Taylor Field), […]
Friday Fun Link – The #GreyCup is Fun! #yqr #gc101 #riderville #cfl #riders
Lots of fun stuff happening during Grey Cup week in Regina as you might imagine. Here’s a few things I’ve come across… This montage of fan-submitted Grey Cup-related photos is pretty cool (and hypnotic!) Cool (literally!) weather advisory from Environment Canada from Environment Canada A local radio station is asking people to party like it’s 1989 (the […]
