Fuck. That. Country.
Fourteen fucking years? What are they doing about rapists who target lesbians for ‘correction’? This is yet another example of religious poison.
Per CNN:
The Nigerian senate has passed a bill banning same-sex marriages, defying a threat from Britain to withhold aid from nations violating gay rights.
The bill by Africa’s most populous nation calls for...

I'll Respect Theists...
…when they start using their political power to address real problems in the world instead of carrying water for people who want to legislate that I be required to respect their effing religion. Think of what could be accomplished if these people stopped harassing women and abortionists and collected food, or went after domestic abusers.
Something, anything.
But no, we have theists...

Sam Brownback is such a corrupt piece of shit. Where are the jobs he and his cronies promised? Why are they too busy policing his negative public image, which he’s done everything in his power to earn, instead of getting their unemployed back to work?

Hunger Extends Across KC Region, and it's Hurting...
The so-called ‘pro-life’ Republican machine strikes again. Across the country, and in my state of Missouri, the biggest focus of the legislature has been to add to the already superfluous abortion restrictions, despite the fact that most of these people were elected on the unfulfilled promise to focus on legislation that would encourage job growth and help the state economy.

conceit:
Or even just content.
Happiness is the most important thing in life. I can’t tell you folks how much I hear about people in my life thinking I should get married or do other things that are expected of a man in life, when in reality, being alone and having my freedom is what ultimately makes me happy.

WatchTexas Town Running Out Of Water - CNN
___
Part of the blame for this has to go to Rick Perry, for cutting public services and calling on people to pray for rain as an answer to the epic drought in Texas. Folks, this is why we shouldn’t rely on prayer as an answer for environmental problems.
That or God is just really really pissed off at Texas for the way they treat people who are not...

abaldwin360:
Even for Congress, this is excessively arrogant. There is no reason anyone should be spoken to so rudely, especially by a member of Congress. Whoever it was that warned the professor during the exchange is also a rude jerk because Douglas Brinkley is 100% right that Congress doesn’t own him and that they work for him.
Agreed. There is no excuse for this kind of behavior by a...

Say Something Nice Friday - Kitty Stoner
I want to say something nice about my friend Kitty today. (And not just because she’s a remarkable beauty, though I will admit that I value her unrelenting hotness.)
To help illustrate how cool this chick is, she lives in a Floridian paradise where it’s commonplace for manatees and alligators to make appearances on her dock, but the really cool thing about Kitty is, she’s as...
Why "Atheists are less trusted" →
liter8media:
I’m a Christian believer, but I’m not sure on this issue. Is a lack of moral backing enough to say that a person isn’t as trustworthy? I’d love to get your opinion on this.
Atheists are less trusted for one reason only: too few Christians in this world have adequate critical thinking skills.

Thanksgiving
This is going to be a rambling post, so I apologize in advance.
As much as I love the holidays, I have a major pet peeve with the American people. It’s almost universally accepted that everyone should demonstrate generosity and good will toward one another over the holidays, but Americans have shown themselves to be hypocritical in the speed with which they turn on those values after the...

On God and Abortion
As has been my habit lately, I’ve been browsing the abortion tags, which is, admittedly, a self destructive thing to do most of the time.
Christians post their usual bullshit about about abortion being murder, completely overlooking the actions of their own God as recorded in the myths of their religion, and insisting that God loves babies and therefore would oppose the termination of a...

(CNN) — Months after a jury couldn’t decide his fate, a Southern California teen has agreed to plead guilty for gunning down a gay classmate three years ago in their junior high classroom.
In September, a judge declared a mistrial in the case of Brandon McInerney, now 17, after jurors said they were hopelessly deadlocked following a nine-week trial on whether he should be...

These people are despicable, but what really saddens me, is that Wall Street has actually gotten much stronger with the Democrats in power. Corporate profits are at historic levels, and many major corporations can count on the Federal Government for billions in tax breaks every year, even as tens of millions in this country starve and see the value they get back in their taxes reduced.

Say Something Nice Friday - One Day Late Edition
Those of you who’ve performed in theatrical productions know that when you’re a couple of weeks removed from production, severe exhaustion sets in. It all pays off when you get to step out on that stage and perform, but until that time comes, it’s a bit of a grind. (If a fulfilling one.) Scrooge: The Musical is going to kick a lot of ass, but right now, I’m just tired.
