Kansas Outlaws Practice Of Evolution

2 September 2008 · Comments

TOPEKA, KS—In response to a Nov. 7 referendum, Kansas lawmakers passed emergency legislation outlawing evolution, the highly controversial process responsible for the development and diversity of species and the continued survival of all life.

“From now on, the streets, forests, plains, and rivers of Kansas will be safe from the godless practice of evolution, and species will be able to procreate without deviating from God’s intended design,” said Bob Bethell, a member of the state House of Representatives. “This is about protecting the integrity of all creation.”

The sweeping new law prohibits all living beings within state borders from being born with random genetic mutations that could make them better suited to evade predators, secure a mate, or, adapt to a changing environment. In addition, it bars any sexual reproduction, battles for survival, or instances of pure happenstance that might lead, after several generations, to a more well-adapted species or subspecies.

Taking the Infidel Challenge

2 December 2007 · Comments

Thrawn has a challenge for us infidels: create a horribly drawn image of Islam’s prophet Mohammad, and display it in a public area. Yes, the Internet counts.

Here’s my entry:

Mohammed bans pork

It makes more sense than demon-haunted pigs…

This has been bugging me for the past couple of years: I knew I’d seen Harris’ face somewhere before I read The End of Faith.

As some readers from the UK may note, this is a homage to Private Eye.

I’m In An Open Relationship With The Lord

27 September 2007 · Comments

It all started when I was 16 and first asked Jesus to enter my heart. It was incredible. He filled me up with His love. I’d never been redeemed before, but with Jesus it felt so right, as if the sins of the world had been lifted off my shoulders. For a while there, we were communing via the sacraments several times a week! And every night we spent what seemed like hours in long, mutually satisfying sessions of prayer. I worshipped Him.

Soon the honeymoon period ended, however. Whenever I spoke to Him, He seemed distracted and distant—sometimes I wondered if He was listening at all. Daily devotionals felt like we were just going through the motions of repetitive, meaningless dogma. A few months later, I made a potentially disastrous discovery: I found out I wasn’t the only one He was sanctifying.

If you’re a creationist/IDer, then you may be interested in these other scientific theories which you can use to beat down those pesky, deluded Darwinists!

The scientific ‘theory’ that explains reproductive biology defeated

Poster, scientific paper, scientific paper with data and commentary.

The scientific ‘explanation’ of atoms and chemical properties busted

Improved periodic table of the elements with additional commentary.

Now, go get ‘em! Jebus loves you!

Mr Deity

15 January 2007 · Comments

Mr Deity is a clever and hilarious look at what goes on behind the scenes of one of the worlds’ great (in the traditional sense) religions. I’m sure all but the most dogmatic and thin-skinned would be amused.
