Culturing Science – biology as relevant to us earthly beings. Developing a scientific worldview: why it’s hard and what we can do. While performing monotonous, brainless tasks at work, I’ve begun the habit of listening to podcasts. And let my friends tell you: have I been listening to WNYC’s Radiolab. About the theory of relativity and how, well, time is relative. Jad asks the question: “What do you with this information? Text cannot do Radiolab justice; listen to the 2-minute clip below:. When I look at...

Freethought Society of Greater Philadelphia. Vicarious Redemption of Sin. November 25, 2009. A lot of times I talk about the immorality of Christianity. Most of the time, Christians and even a few atheists jump to defend Christianity by talking about various good deeds particular Christians have done and continue to do.

Freethought Society of Greater Philadelphia. Seven Ways a Black Hole Can Kill You. August 2, 2009.

And president of the JREF. SLEEPY ...

If someone went and murdered someone else and was found guilty, no one would be able to pay the fine of prison time except that person who was found guilty. There is an old expression, If you do the crime, you will do the time. The whole Christian belief system centers around the idea of blood sacrifice. Back before Jesus allegedly came, the Abrahamic God wanted people to...
