From ABC’s Nightline: Atheists Break Out New Ritual Tool: The Blow-Dryer Nonbelievers Adopt Provocative Ceremony to Make a Point About Baptism Wielding a blow-dryer, a leading atheist conducted a mass “de-baptism” of fellow non-believers and symbolically dried up the offending waters that were sprinkled on their […]

Freaky Pastor Tries to Scare Gays Straight!
On Sunday, the National Organization for Marriage (because the institution needs an organization like this or it would fall apart) held an anti-same sex marriage rally on the capitol steps in Providence, Rhode Island. Pastor Jay Stirnemann was on hand, and began speaking in tongues in an attempt to scare the gay right out of […]
Today in Shocking Catholic Pedophilia
Last July at the Noah’s Ark Water Park in the Wisconsin Dells… A family and two Noah’s Ark Water Park employees reported seeing Umberger repeatedly follow boys into the bathroom near a children’s pool area, according to the Lake Delton police report. Umberger was found standing next to a 10-year-old using a urinal, the report […]
Followers of Christ Church Strikes Again
Portland not weird enough for you these days? Things are still plenty weird and wacky in our slightly rough and tumble, uncouth neighbor to the south, Oregon City. Or as I like to call it, the real O.C. Today an Oregon City judge announced that a 7-month-old baby would not be returned to the custody […]
Ladies and Gentlemen, the Amazing (and FURIOUS) Mark Driscoll
Mars Hill Church mastermind denounces male douchebaggery in the name of God, and threatens to deafen the populace. Wowwowowwitywow. Thank you, MetaFilter!
Double Rainbow Guy: INTERVIEWED!
Fast Company magazine tracked down and interviewed the Double Rainbow Guy (aka Paul Vasquez) I have been mercilessly laughing at for the last few days, and at first, I was like, “BOOOOOOO!!!” I have exactly zero interest in learning more about the people I openly mock—because usually they turn out to be “all right” and […]
Christians Protesting (Apologizing?) At Pride
It’s not often that a post on a Christian blog makes me tear up. A group of Christians got together last weekend and went to the pride parade in Chicago. They were there to wave signs and make their presence known and expose the homos to message of Jesus Christ. But unlike most self-identified Christians […]
CATNAROK IS UPON US!
“And I looked, and beheld a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was Death, and Hell followed with him. And power was given unto them over the fourth part of the earth, to kill with sword, and with hunger, and with death, and with the beasts of the earth.” — Revelations 6:8
Anything Is Possible Through God
Jesus can turn water into wine, walk on water, raise the dead—he can even turn the gayest man in America straight… God’s not having my gangrene in heaven. But this screaming queen’s ascot—yeah, that’s getting in. I ask you again, America: Ex-gays…. would you let your daughter marry one? And, I mean, if someone is […]
Ohio Jesus Statue Burns; Porn Shop Saved
Eschaton: “Farewell Big Butter Jesus, and let us consider that the gigantic dirty bookstore directly across it on I-75 was not smote in the least.” Let’s pretend for a second that lightning struck a gigantic porn shop that faced a six-story-tall statue of Jesus. What would the American Taliban have to say about that? The […]
‘Nuff Said.

How to Spend a Weekend Finding the World’s (or at Least Oregon’s) Largest Pig Hairball
First, take the MAX at 6 PM from downtown and then the WES train from Beaverton to Wilsonville, where you can eat some sushi before biking to Champoeg (which is for some reason pronounced “Shampoo-ee”) in the rain. From there, pack up your tent and bike to Mount Angel, Oregon, and then bike to the […]
