Christians around the country, whether they admit it or not, are using the Bible as a basis for legislation, but what if I told you the Bible is actually very pro-choice? Last week, I wrote about how statistics show that increased access to contraceptives lowers the abortion rate. https://twitter.com/aSciEnthusiast/status/1102770982115295237 I’ve said before that my opinion […] More
If you don’t like abortion, you should be in favor of free contraceptives. This really isn’t a complicated idea. In fact, I’ve posted about it here, here, here, here, and probably other places that I’ve forgotten about. The research is crystal clear. If you want to reduce the amount of abortions that are occurring, the […] More
Facebook announced that it has banned far-right antagonists such as InfoWars host Alex Jones, Milo Yiannopoulos, Louis Farrakhan, and Laura Loomer for conduct Facebook believes is “dangerous” on social media. You may recall Facebook’s banning of Jones last July, for behavior that Facebook said violated their “Community Standards.” I’m sure it wasn’t helped by Jones, who at that time, […] More

Writing for the LA Times, Soumya Karlamangla reported: Trying to stop a measles outbreak from spreading, health officials announced Thursday that more than 200 students and staff members […] More
Last night on the hit show “The MC Files”, conservative christian commentator Chris McDonald said that the murder of 50 Muslims in Christchurch, New Zealand was a “false flag” in order to justify the attacks in Sri Lanka that left over 320 Christians dead. If this sounds a lot like Alex Jones-style nonsense, that’s because […] More
I wrote the other day about all the wonderful feedback from Christians™ I’ve been receiving in the wake of my viral tweet, so I thought I’d follow that up with a post about all the brosplaining I’ve been on the receiving end of. In case you missed it (somehow), here’s the tweet: Because the melting […] More

Well, today’s the day. The redacted version of the Mueller Report is now publicly available on the Department of Justice’s website (with the seemingly innocuous URL justice.gov/storage/report.pdf). Today started with Attorney General Bill Barr’s press conference about the report that the press had not yet been able to read. It was little more than a campaign […] More
According to the World Health Organization, the number of measles cases in the world has quadrupled in the first quarter of 2019. They also said that this is “a clear trend”, as all regions around the globe have seen an uptick in measles outbreaks. According to the BBC: The UN says the disease is “entirely […] More
Following the massive fire at the Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris earlier this week, many Christians have been searching for meaning amidst the chaos. Our friend Hemant Mehta over at Friendly Atheist posted today about how, apparently, some Christians saw the Jesus in the flames. If you don’t see him, look closer. There he is! […] More
A team of Yale scientists successfully restored partial function in the brains of pigs that had been dead for about four hours. I think that this marks the first time that reality has bested the great Rick Sanchez. Science: 1 Death: Well… a lot. But seriously, this research is extremely impressive, though the team was […] More
A massive fire has broken out at the Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris, causing its iconic spire to collapse. As of this writing, we don’t know if anyone has been injured or what started the fire. It goes without saying that I truly hope no one was harmed and that those inside were able to […] More
