Sarah Palin Is Trying To Be Relevant Again, And We Non-Christians Are The Winners.

Posted by Akheia , 16 March 2013 -

She gave a speech today in which she basically rehashed all her old talking points: Obama is evil and probably not "really" American, lawmakers are all evil bastards, guns are awesome, down-home aw-shucks snowbilly Alaskan proverbs about dogsleds, she is very pretty, she has tits (no, really) , she is still bitter about 2008, she still thinks teleprompte...

Why My Sincerity Doesn't Matter To My Deconversion.

Christians are rather fond of parroting the tired old excuses for why we left their obscene religion, and one of the lamest of the lot is this one: "You just didn't want it enough."You just weren't trying hard enough.You didn't want God enough.You didn't pray enough. You didn't love God enough. You weren't submitted enough.You just didn't want it enough....

Preaching To The (Wrong) Choir.

Posted by Akheia , 09 December 2012 -

· 400 views

One of the biggest problems Christians have is when they hear something they think sounds wonderful at church or in an apologetics book and make the huge and terrible mistake of not realizing that these arguments are for the choir, not for the outsiders peeking in through the church windows."Something can't come from nothing!" "Adam an...

The Five Ds Of Dodgeball

I recently was reading a slew of articles about various Christians committing crimes and being raging hypocrites (my fave: so-pro-life-it's-scary Scott DesJarlais not only demanded his mistress get an abortion, but his ex-wife had had a couple of 'em too. IOKIYR has become IOKIYC.) One article was about a Mormon mayor in Utah who got caught in an...

Waiting For The Drunk-Dialing Call.

Ever had a nasty break-up with someone who's rather controlling? Sooner or later, you know the phone will ring in the middle of the night. Against your better judgement, you'll answer. It'll be your ex, drunk and slobbering, pleading and whining for you to reconcile. And that fervent request will go roughly like this: "Baby, I can't...

Consent And Christianity

Todd Akin made a hugely unsettling statement about rape that riled up a huge number of people. The GOP at first made a lot of noise about walking away from him, but after the furor had died down, they went back to him and even gave him $700,000 to help him get elected (which, thankfully, failed).

Another member of Team Rape, Tom Smith of Pennsylvania,...

The Christian Fear Of Death

I have a 15-year-old cat. Her name is Bitsen, and like all cats whose names relate to small size, she is--or rather was--huge, a beach ball of a round waddling kitty, a brown tabby with sweet sea-green eyes, a rather long nose, and a complete hatred and disdain for humanity.

She is an ex-feral. If anybody but my mother had adopted this cat, Bitsen would...

Thought Crimes - The Last Bit Of Dogma We Shed

Posted by Akheia , 18 October 2012 -

· 193 views

Once upon a time I wrote an opinion piece about the trend of vapid vanity tattoos and how stupid I thought they were. Wow, you'd have thought I'd advocated eating children when the responses came in from people who felt THEIR tats were very significant and spiritual and despite agreeing that most women getting them were idiots, they themselves were...

Why Only Twats Wish For A Return To The Good Ol' Days.

Not long ago I was cruising a Christian news site talking about the anti-gay bigotry of Chik-Fil-A and was surprised when the comments turned from the usual comedy gold ("ITT: CHRISTIANS WITH NOOOOO IDEA WHAT'S IN THEIR OWN BIBLE") to a woman pining openly for "the good old days." That's what she called it. And suddenly the whole...
