Palin better qualified than Obama, Biden

Can Man Live Without God?

May 18th, 2008 · No Comments

“Can man live without God?” That’s a question asked by Ravi Zacharias in his book by the same name. Unfortunately, Zacharias’ book doesn’t offer any substantive response beyond tortured logic that sounds more like a diatribe from Laura Ingraham than an intellectual response to atheism.
I seriously tried to read this book. However, it is intellectually [...]

A Simple Question, Pt. II

May 6th, 2008 · No Comments

A few days ago, I asked a very simple question:

Q. Where in our Constitution does it acknowledge or state that the U.S. relies upon the Judeo-Christian God, Christianity, or Christian morality?
A. It doesn’t. Period. God is not mentioned once. Religion appears exactly twice, once in Article VI where the “no religious test” prohibition is articulated, [...]

Q. Where in our Constitution does it acknowledge or state that the U.S. relies upon the Judeo-Christian God, Christianity, or Christian morality?

Jeebus Fish

April 9th, 2008 · 8 Comments

I mock religion. I mock the religion in which I was raised—my parents’ religion—and all other religions. However, mocking the Jesus Fish isn’t simply individual smugness or an affectation of superiority. When one decides to declare their ignorance for all to see, openly mocking such ignorange almost becomes an obligation.
Over at the National Review the [...]
