“How People In Science See Each Other”

The absolutely brilliant and hilarious chart in most respects goes for the rest of academia too.  Only you’ll notice who is missing—we adjunct professors.  And that’s appropriate, since we are invisible. via PZ Your Thoughts?

On the Dangers of Inflation

It’s been great to get feedback from so many readers! I appreciate the time and effort you’ve taken here. One shared concern is that I’m trying to compel people to believe some abstruse doctrine. I’m not — at least not yet! All I’ve said so far is that an atheist has no reason to object [...]

Uploading and Religion: Criticism of Stross

Charlie Stross, author of the highly-praised novel Accelerando, has written an interesting skeptical article on the technological singularity. The article makes many good points — except when it comes to “religion”. When it comes to “religion”, specifically religion and mind-uploading, what he says is remarkably silly. Here it is: Uploading … is not obviously impossible [...]

Jason Alexander Teaching Larry David How To Play George Constanza

I’m a big Seinfeld fan but I’ve only seen a little bit of Curb Your Enthusiasm and have been completely underwhelmed by it. But I just stumbled across this clip of Jason Alexander schooling Larry David on how to play George Costanza (the character based on Larry David and played by Jason Alexander on Seinfeld) [...]

“Weird Al” Does Lady Gaga

Mildly scathing: I’m disappointed to learn Lady Gaga has no sense of humor (or a thin skin). And, really, shouldn’t have Al just asked Madonna for the rights to the song anyway? Many thanks to Ben. Your Thoughts? ______________________________________________________________________________________ UPDATE: Lady Gaga has a sense of humor after all (or has decided to come off [...]

George Carlin Flawlessly Combines Comedy With Philosophy: The 10 Commandments

George Carlin is the greatest comedian of our time. He flawlessly combines philosophy, insight, and comedy. This is a huge achievement. Bill Hicks is the only other philosopher-comedian that even comes close to combining great comedy with decent philosophy, but very few comedians even try. Below is an example of Carlin’s greatness, his “10 Commandments” [...]

The Amazing Atheist Trashes ESP

The Amazing Atheist is one of the greatest comedians of our time, but he hasn’t made it into the mainstream media. He not only trashes a “psychic” in this piece, but he explains what it means to be a reasonable person — and why a reasonable person would not believe in psychics. You can watch [...]

Guest Blogger James Gray This Weekend And My First Podcast Appearance (Wednesday 3/16)

Hey everyone, I’m still trying to rest up so that I can beat this illness, and so I have asked good friend of Camels With Hammers, our popular frequent commenter James Gray (of the blog Ethical Realism) to fill in for me this weekend. Also, I am excited to announce that I will be interviewed [...]

Sundaily Hilarity: Carman’s Revival In The Land and A Witch’s Invitation

I’ve been doing a little reminiscing this afternoon about the insanely cheesy contemporary Christian music I was into at 14 years old.  Though I was never a pentecostal and never particularly into “demonology” or other “spirit”-based superstitiousness, these two songs were as cool and edgy as it got for my young fundamentalist Christian brain: Your [...]

Trainwreck of the Day

A couple Christian kids with a nauseating, badly performed anti-atheist song set to “My Humps” (via Greg Laden, whose categorizations of the video say it all about the video’s contents): And then there’s “Don’t Cha Wish Your Savior Was Right Like Mine”: Your Thoughts?

Daily Hilarity: God’s “Unconditional” Love

This pretty much sums it up: As I have argued before (in Conceptual Problems For The Ideal of Unconditional Love), I think anyone, not just the Christians, would have a hard time making a theory of unconditional love coherent. Your Thoughts?

Christians vs. Muslim in Front of the White House
