The Freethinker : Church of England vicar jailed for sex offences against boys in Leeds

Mon, 19 Oct 2009 13:16:38 +0000

If there's one thing Christians do best, Neal, is hypocrisy. I have a fridge magnet which shows a family at prayer in church. The wording is "Christians aren't perfect. They just want you to be!" So long as sanctimonious believers bang on about how superior to everyone else they are we will continue to publish items which demonstate that religion and morality are not only NOT linked, but are generally poles apart.

The Freethinker : Genesis gets the Crumb treatment

Mon, 19 Oct 2009 08:28:13 +0000

Actually Brian, it was Crumb who said ‘This is important, fundamental myth’ and Blaines agreed. This might not have been clear when I originally posted the piece, but it is clear now.

The Freethinker : Godless is GOOD!

We had an infestation of Jesus Army weirdos here a few weeks back, and I caught one handing out tracts outside the shop where I work. "Shoo!" I said to the woman "This is a respectable sex shop and we don't want people handing out filthy Christian propaganda to our customers!" She took off like a seagull with its tail feathers on fire!

The Freethinker : Nelson’s statue will be trashed when Islam gains 'glorious dominion' over the UK

Damn right it is! The correct height has now been inserted.

Francis, you are a gibbering idiot. Please go elsewhere to post your insane comments!

The Freethinker : Large spider upstages Catholic creepy-crawly on Czech television

Glad to hear that BJ. I have today set up my moblile internet connection which means I don't have to go trolling for wi-fi cafes (or weeeee-feeees as the Spanish call it. So now I can update the blog in the comfort of my base. Unfortunately, my base has sprung a leak - two days of torrential rain has started finding its way through the roof. No spiders, so far, tho .... or popes.

The Freethinker : Catholic Church’s cruelty and greed told in the tragic story of an Irish mum

Sun, 20 Sep 2009 11:53:05 +0000

The really galling thing about this terrible story is that this woman has, according to the Guardian report, now embraced the Catholic Church. WTF!

The Freethinker : Nigerian atheist attacked by a mob of Christians at a child witchcraft conference

There is n mention in this report of an atheist satanist. Leo Igwe is an atheist who is battling a mad Christian Helen Ukpabio who is accusing children of devil possession.

The Freethinker : Deranged Baptist preacher thinks killing Obama, abortionists and gays isn’t murder

Really? How do you spot the difference?

Oh come on, Tom! I grew up with Christian fundies who talked like Anderson all the time. Sure, people like him are nuts, but ask yourself what drove them to that state of insanity in the first place. For the answer, look further than the Christian Bible, the source of more human misery than any other single work of fiction every published.

The Freethinker : Halal search engines for Muslims – a bad idea on so many levels!

Sun, 13 Sep 2009 21:24:17 +0000

"Dick Cheney" only gets a two-star warning. I was hoping it would blow every fuse over at I'm Halal, and let me get on with some proper, productive work.

"Knockers" is OK – but the first page obligingly flagged by I'm Halal is entitled: “breasts, tits, juggs, funbags, hooters, knockers!” and gives this link: http://www.spike.com/video/breasts-tits-juggs/294... Damn, is that the time? I've got a magazine to knock out!

I just discovered that “Fanny Craddock” earns a one-star warning, but “Dick Tracy” gets two! I must get away from I'm Halal – it's exposing my age!

The Freethinker : Maltese revellers to be charged with 'offending religious sentiment'

Fri, 11 Sep 2009 11:22:57 +0000

Nonsense! Religion is an affront to human intelligence and is worthy of nothing other than insult.

This report has made it to No 3 on the front page of Reddit (atheism) – thank you so much Peter Brietbart – and the comments are a joy! See http://www.reddit.com/r/atheism/comments/9j4q8/im...

The Freethinker : If euthanasia was good enough for King George V, why should WE be denied it?

Sat, 5 Sep 2009 14:55:22 +0000

Given that no-one has so far been prosecuted in England for assisting a suicide, I would think that there is little chance that the law would swing into action if you accompanied your mum to Switzerland. The cost, I am reliably informed, is £4,500. This includes travel and accommodation.
