I really don’t understand this position at all.  While I do understand the idea that the atheist movement might need to deal more politely with those of faith (’understand’, not necessarily ‘agree with’), the idea that somehow saying that one can be good without god is too strong an attack on religion is ludicrous.  It [...]

Which is sadder…the fact that the distinction between the Washington Times and Fox News is virtually non-existent, or that the Times has simply stopped trying to do anything resembling responsible reporting and is simply reposting from blogs without doing any fact-checking?  At what point do should you be required to no longer refer to yourself [...]

I often disagree with Melissa (though, more often than not, I actually agree with her), but this is just spot on.  its a response to a woman who is drowning in a mortgage she direly wants to get out of, and, of course, this woman wanted to go to the whole 9/12 thing in DC [...]
