Rifle scopes with engrained Bible verses on them.





Luckily, this company has now been stopped/prosecuted.

Female circumcision.

Over 80 million Christian women in the Third World have had their clitorises forcibly removed in order to reduce sexual stimulation (and thus 'prevent' them from commiting adultery). Women who suffer this custom often succumb to chronic infection problems (as well as social disorders (and lameness in general)). Here's a video detailing this most horrific custom:

Margaret Atwood on religion.

Margaret Atwood is a renowned feminist author. Her book The Handmaid's Tale depicts a scenario in which the Old Testament is adopted as the founding stone of a new American totalitarian regime.

In this regime, women are forced to be handmaid's to men - they have to cook, clean and bear children, otherwise they will either be hung as dissenters or sent out into the irradiated world beyond to die slow and painful deaths.

In these three videos, Margaret gives her views on religion. I found them very profound. Enjoy them:

Brilliant video.

I just sat through this brilliant video in which an atheist and a Christian have an 11-minute-long discussion on belief, epistemology and empirical evidence. I was surprised at how the conversation turned suddenly ten minutes and fifty seconds in. Enjoy the video - it's both enlightening and entertaining.

What we are.

This video is at once brilliant, funny, scary and relieving - it expresses every sentiment I've ever wished to utter in just under 4 minutes. I will say one thing, though: we're not monkeys! We're fuckin' apes!

Ricky Gervais on Creationism (from Animals). (Please also read the afterword.)



Ricky Gervais is a comedy legend. He's done two fantastic stand-up shows, one quite crap one (you know which one I mean; ahem, Fame) and two fantastic shows - Extras and The Office, of course.

After watching this clip, a certain thought occured to me: not only can the snake - maybe God knew about Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets before J.K. Rowling did - and Eve speak English, but they could speak English before Babel occured. For those of you not familiar with Babel, I shall impart what I know.

Babel was the capital of Babylon - Babylon means 'gate of God' - in some language I don't know of, of course. (What? Yeah! I do fucking know the language, actually! Let's just call it Babylonian. Oh - makes sense.)

The Bible maintains that language was born at Babel after every single person in the 'Holy Land' (surely all of God's lands would be holy, right?) congregated there and started speaking in tongues. After a while of speaking in tongues, all the people fucked off home and thus, somehow, language was born. Sound convincing? Hmmm....

Anyway, doesn't the point that the [talking] snake and Eve could speak English (or any other language the Bible is translated into - such as Mandarin or Swedish or bullshit or whatever) before Babel occured undermine the whole point of Babel? The answer is yes - obviously! What? Do you think I'm some kind of fucking moron? Fuck you!

Thanks for watching the video.

Adendum: The book of Genesis supposes Adam was made from dust and Eve from Adam's rib. Only a child uneducated in biology and science could believe that - or a fundamentalist Christian. If Eve were made from a rib, surely all men would have a single rib fewer than women. That, of course, isn't the case. The best you can do - if you're a fundamentalist Christian - is say that Eve was made from Adam's penis bone. This is because, unlike other great apes and monkeys, human men lack penis bones.

Not only is the account of Genesis so utterly daft and designed that children can see through it (if they're not controlled by adults whom were taught from childhood to believe the pitiful attempt at identifying the source of creation) but there is also absolutely no evidence for it. I feel quite daft and reprehensible for having said no evidence backs it up - it's like saying the Honey Monster exists. But, that's what people expect these days. People will believe in the daftest cod-science until it's rejected scientifically - even then they may still persist in pursuing it purely out of ignorance. If you believe in the account of Genesis, I'd say there's no hope for you - maybe a snub-nosed .45 is the only solution for you. Make it painless, my friend.

George Carlin's revised version of the Ten Commandments.

1. Thou shalt be honest and faithful to the provider of thy nookie.
2. Thou shalt try really hard not to kill - unless a person prays to another invisible man than the invisible man to whom you pray.

Also, quite importantly, he provides a third and final commandment:

3. Thou shalt keep thy religion to thyself.

Goodnight! Also my god's dick is bigger than your god's.

It's not that swell being an atheist;
It's not as easy as you might think.
One gets abused by religious zealots.
Their brains are poisoned with zinc.
It's not that easy when you come.
Which god do you thank?
Thank you Jesus, Mohammed and Zeus
For letting this lovely broad spank my plank.
I don't say grace;
I'd rather thank the sun.
The sun gives me warmth and light;
My yellow, skin cancer-giving chum.
Atheists see no cause for war.
Atheists see no basis for hate.
We all just want to get along.
(And kill all the fundamentalists in our way!)
