I love it when Christofascists are hoisted on their own petard.

Thank you for the knowledge! I love learning more ways that christians are hypocritical wing nuts. Unfortunately, they are also immune to knowledge and the concept of hypocrisy, so frustrated I remain...

I’m pretty sure some of them would happily agree with stamping out the Olympics to avoid seeing so many high-melanin athletes win.

Paul evidently didn’t know there is more than one definition for religion; a pursuit or interest to which someone ascribes supreme importance.

The country in the Middle East "founded" in 1948 has taken a turn for theo-fascism without Jesus to sling around because they're still waiting for him to show up.

I went looking for this story because I’d always heard about the messenger dying at the end of the run between Marathon and Athens. I’d also heard that 26 miles was like a warmup run for messengers.

I'm still puzzled about American Christians who run around with essentially 10 Jewish Commandments when Christ supposedly gave them a new one - "Love each other".

For someone trying to sell a book you have one fucked up making plan. You likely have written off at least half the world as possible customers.
