Army Bob Takes a Bride

Earlier this year, my son Bob and his girlfriend came to visit us for Easter. Bob has been in the Army since 2013 and, while stationed at Fort Bragg, met a lovely girl named Johanna who is an art student (she does video animation). While they were visiting, Bob invited Johanna to hike up to […]

The Failed Heterosexual

“Difficult.” That word came to mind today while I was reading a woman’s account of how, at age 30, she suddenly decided she’s a lesbian.

Did Atheist Reddit Save Her Soul?

There was a rather notorious incident in 2011 when a 15-year-old girl using the handle “Lunam” posted the photo above on the Reddit atheism forum, showing a copy of a Carl Sagan book her “super religious mother” bought her for Christmas. This being Reddit during its Wild West heyday — when the infamous troll “Violentacrez” […]

God and Man at #Skepticon: Atheist @RichardCCarrier Gets Banned

Richard Carrier mocks Christianity at Skepticon 2011. “I am a feminist because feminism is simply the belief that women should be treated as fairly as men, and there is no factual or rational reason to want the world to work any other way.” — Richard Carrier, 2012 “The accusations specifically against Richard Carrier are, sadly, […]
