I will name the time and the place, per your offer, as soon as possible. Looking forward to it, NOMnuts.
NOM’s Brian Brown Challenges Dan Savage to a Bible Debate!
From Brown’s post on the National Organization for Marriage website: Let me lay down a public challenge to Dan Savage right here and now: You want to savage the Bible? Christian morality? Traditional marriage? Pope Benedict? I’m here, you name the time and the place and let’s see what a big man you are in […]
Dan Savage SAVAGES the Pope!
These are the comments that have had the Catholic League spitting out deranged press releases for two days. ZOMG! Dan Savage said those things about that pope that Dan Savage has said before! The same things he’s said on his podcast more than once! Things that he’s more than happy to post to his own […]
The Economist Weighs In on Bullshitgate
This line stung: “A couple of weeks ago Dan Savage… gave the right a gift.” I certainly did, Economist, and I certainly regret it. But The Economist calls bullshh… comes to my defense: However poorly Mr Savage may have been treated in high school, it was not by the students in the audience, and they […]
All Religion Is Bullshit
If Dan won’t say it, I will: All religion is bullshit. Oh, I’m not saying there aren’t some good things that come from religion or that people of faith are inherently bullshitters, just that in a very real and literal sense the Bible, the Koran, the Vedas, the Buddhavacana, the Book of Mormon, and all […]
On “Bullshit” and “Pansy-Assed”
I would like to apologize for describing that walk out as a pansy-assed move. [Re: “Savage’s Great New Shitstorm.”] I wasn’t calling the handful of students who left pansies (2800+ students, most of them Christian, stayed and listened), just the walk-out itself. But that’s a distinction without a difference—kinda like when religious conservatives tells their […]
Savage’s Great New Shitstorm
A couple weeks ago, Dan Savage delivered a keynote address at the National High School Journalism Convention, during which he spoke some true (if expletive-ridden) words about what the Bible has gotten wrong throughout history. Then came this top headline on the Drudge Report: “Anti-Bullying Speaker Curses Christian Teens.” Here’s video of what Dan said […]
Perfectly Normal Activities
The religious right makes a horror flick! In the popular found footage style! Harmless is a feature film shot in the popular found footage style. It’s the story about a husband and father and his battle with a box of porn that is found in the closet. Once opened, the box of porn begins to […]
Portland Christians = the Best Christians
I didn’t see this church sign when it was originally up a week or so ago, but it’s been getting a ton of play on the internet for the past couple of days. Another reason to say, “Yay, Portland!” And it’s REAL! From The United Methodist Portal (which you don’t want to fall into, because […]
Kirk Cameron Watch: “I’m Not Saying Obama is Hitler, Buuuuuut…”
Mike Seaver (Kirk Cameron of Growing Pains) used to bug me… because a) he’s a sanctimonious, religious ass and b)… nope, that pretty much sums it up. But I’ve EVOLVED, people! Cameron’s idiocy is reaching new glorious heights every single day, and I’ll be goddamned if I’m gonna miss any of it. Here’s Kirk on […]
The Gay Debate: The Bible and Homosexuality
This is long—it clocks in at a little more than an hour—but it’s absolutely worth your time.Matthew Vines is a young gay man who grew up in Kansas. His family is Christian and very conservative. After coming out, Vines took two years off college to research and think deeply about what the bible says—and doesn’t […]
