Why you should not donate to the Salvation Army.

Corwin — Mon, 18 Jan 2010 13:31:35 +0000

The Salvation Army is NOT a charity group. It is a religious organization The Salvation Army is exempt under Internal Revenue Code from filing the Form 990. As a result, their financial status and financial health are not available. They also discriminate against gays [more]. Always, always research charitable organizations before donating, and DO NOT donate to the Salvation Army.

The Great Flood (Christian Flood Myth)

If you can get past the evil ‘atheist’ word in the title without your retinas burning out this is pretty funny and enlightening.

The Creationist “Museum”

PZ Myers and the Secular Student Alliance go on a field trip!

I’m careful to put the title in quotes, because it is not a museum in any respectable sense of the word. I knew this ahead of time; I had no expectation of any kind of credible presentation in this place, but what impressed me most is how far it failed to meet even my low hopes. They clearly want to ape a real museum, but they can’t — their mission is the antithesis of open inquiry.

Atheist Meetings?

Chris at Cynical-C Blog was asked if he goes to any atheist meetings.

To answer your question I had to think long and hard to find out how bored I would have to be before I went to an atheist meeting. I think perhaps if my wife was out of town, my friends all died, my cat had really bad diarrhea while all the electricity went out leaving my tv and computer useless and if Amazon had come into my house and removed all the books in my personal library because of some copyright problem (leaving a refund in my Amazon account of course) and if all my musical instruments were broken along with the disappearance of every writing instrument and paper product and the closing of all music clubs, comedy clubs, cafes and if my telescope was useless due to all the stars in the sky suddenly going black I may be bored enough to go to an atheist meeting. Provided that it was close to my house. Although, after all that it may be wiser to go to a Seventh Day Adventist meeting.
