I want to get to know you better and am eager to try an experiment. Are you up for an excercise in honesty that demands you to say one truthful thing about yourself every single day for one week?
This is my challenge!

What happens at an Atheist church? Maybe a little something like this:
Can I get a rAmen from my heathens? I need a witness up in here!

I especially say “Hear, hear!” when he says he did not choose to stop believing in the Christian religion–he was simply on a search for truth and was able to discount all of the Christian dogmas.
Ramen, Russell!

First, you must know I am a very enthusiastic fan of Harry Potter and his universe. I am not embarrassed by this in any way, but I have not reached true fangirl status (dressing up, fan mail, fapping to movie posters and the like). Still, if the HP universe existed, I would be leaking happiness! More >

Count on the best satirical source for news, The Onion, to hit on the truth behind our culture more than any of the “serious” news organizations. Case-in-point: Nation’s Experts Give Up, an amusing lament by scientists and experts on how Americans have ignored their advice for years. They give up!

Ohhh yes, my heathen horde, I’m serving up another hot plate of my favorite dish and yours: Christian faith healers.
Check out the other parts in this series: Kerney Thomas and his magic handkerchiefs and coming next, a douche of epic proportions!

We atheists have heard the common argument that God gives humans their moral code and without God there can be nothing good accomplished in the world. One could also assume that the closer one gets to God and the more of the Holy Spirit one has inside themselves, the less douchey one must become.

If you’re a fan of skepticism, science, and laughs, you’ll adore my favorite musical comic, Tim Minchin (possibly bumping the late, great Victor Borge down a notch). What I would give to see him perform live! He has the perfect song to illustrate the skeptic’s view of woo: “If You Open Your Mind Too Much More >

For someone with a computer engineering degree like me, it is very easy to understand this dualism. The body is like the hardware; the mind is like the software. Software cannot work without a hardware. If my laptop dies, no software can run in it.

This is not only an ancient quandry, it is the great philosophical divide between rationalists and empiricists.
Plato's otherworldly Forms were his way of refuting relativism. DesCartes and Leibniz both looked to thought existing outside our physical existance. How the non-material mind communicates with the material body has given rationalist philosophers something to ponder for centuries.
Theosophy to eastern theories of the greater Cosmic Consciousness have conjured non-corporeal existance as a safehaven from physical death.
Thought provoking. Thank you.

If a person is or has a "soul" then why does brain damage change who a person is? As a person who suffered a head injury I discovered just how pervasive this "soul" as a separate entity is.
While waiting for an appointment I once overheard a couple of women discussing the one woman's husband, who was in seeing the doctor. They were complaining about how he "let" his brain injury change his personality. The older woman then started talking about how they needed to get him back to going to church and he'd straighten out – as if church could fix a brain injury!
