No, Atheists Don't Have to Show "Respect" for Religion - I think the greatest compliment I have for someone is when I get done reading their work and (very) jealously think to myself: “Damn it. Why the Hell didn’t I write that?” or “Why didn’t my post on that subject come off that awesome?”

This article gave me a good chuckle.
The Apostate: Paul Haggis vs. the Church of Scientology - I won’t lie to you: this is one loooong article, but it is worth the read. How anybody can believe this stuff is beyond me. Uh oh... I must be an “S.P.“ Quick! I need an audit! Where’s the soup cans! Am I Clear? Oh sweet Xenu, am I CLEAR?

Sarah Palin: Too Soft on GOP Gays For Some - Adams says: “Maybe the fundies are right. The end is truly nigh when Sarah fucking Palin is too tolerant to be president.”
Sarah Palin tolerates nothing. There is only self-serving political acceptance of groups she would normally disavow. I shudder at the thought of her in any office.

Bill Gates: Anti-Vaccine People “Kill Children” - Earlier this week on my local news they said there have been a few outbreaks of measles in the area. Guess why? As the father of a child less than one year old and therefore not able to be vaccinated yet this pisses me off to no end.

Fischer: Native Americans Need to Leave The Reservation, Convert To Christianity, and Become Full-Fledged American Citizens - I reject the pantheistic or naturalistic religion of traditional Native Americans as much as any other religion, but at least their “spirituality” is personal, doesn’t require converts and has no claim on universal, divine truth. In short: they keep it to themselves.
Bill O'Reilly vs. Science: O'Reilly's Top 8 Science FAILs
Did Drought Kill the Mayans? - I surveyed and excavated in the hinterlands around Caracol in Belize. This is a terrible headline and poorly written article. The Maya didn't die off.
