Looking at Both Sides of the Argument
I always find it amusing when misguided people try and use logic to prove the existence of that which does not exist. The latest attempt comes from Canada Free Press (!). Shall we gloss over the obvious failings of this article (there are many, like assuming that all reproduction is reliant on two genders, certain […]

I don't want to compare God to Bigfoot…
This is a fantastic debate between an atheist and a theist (he doesn’t state his affiliation, but he’s definitely a theist). I particularly like the line “I don’t want to compare God to Bigfoot”. Definitely worth 10 minutes of your time. It mirrors many of the debates I’ve had over the years with theist friends, […]

Groups, Blog Rolls and Labels
I thought I’d kill two birds with one stone in this post. Firstly, I thought I’d introduce the Atheist Blogroll, which I’ve added to the sidebar.
