In follow up to my last post, here is the latest message from Anonymous in their fight against Scientology. This time it is directed at the media.If you didn't see the first message, here it is:I wish them success. If they achieve anything then I hope we can encourage them to go after the Vatican, a bigger bunch of cheating bastards you will not find.

There are only so many hours one can legitimately describe as rewarding when repeatedly undertaking any action. That which is at first worthwhile does not always remain so. For example, the self-pleasuring caresses of enthusiastic masturbation can be both invigorating and satisfying. However, keep it up for too long and one soon starts to feel a bit of a wanker and nothing more.Another example,

I returned back home to Spain just in time for my birthday and went out for dinner with my new girlfriend. It was all very nice.

One of the biggest issues I have with the pious faithful is the hypocritical claims they make about how good they are for worshiping their gods. Although I've mentioned it before, including recently, I think this point deserves more attention. One deconversion I achieved was because I highlighted that according to a friend's beliefs, I will burn for all eternity in hell. She thought of me to be a

Previously I've written a little about love before in a post called Lost. If you've read that post you may have noticed that I'm somewhat of a cynic and can't ignore the statistics when it comes to claiming how special someone is. Despite being a cynic and a relatively critical thinker I am not imune to emotion. Even though I was once described as the "closest thing to a vulcan in the atheist

To be honest I'm tired of all the times I've had to discuss the claim that Hitler was an atheist when the evidence that he was in fact a Christian is overwhelming. There is argument to be made that Hitler was no fan of organised religion, but even this is put on uncertain ground as there is a strong case the quotes upon which that assertion is made were forged by Bormann, the anti-Catholic editor

Austin over at About.com has written a fantastic article criticising the Catholics protesting "The Golden Compass", a film based on Philip Pullman's award-winning book of the same name. Why? Pullman's "His Dark Materials" series promotes an atheistic view, but it's fine for them to indoctrinate children through ritual, fear and dedicated faith schools funded by taxes.Go and read it.

In the past I've had some visits from the Jehovah's Witnesses. I blogged the last visit back in April, titled An Interesting talk with the Jehovah's Witnesses.

I am not now and I have never been a violent man. Despite this I have had many fights in my life, starting from when I got sent to a quality school in a different town to the squalid ghetto-like scum pit I grew up in. Upon returning from school I was abused on a daily basis and situations sometimes turned violent. This used to make me quite scared, although every time I seemed to come off better

Earlier today I googled the phrase "Unintelligent Design" and I noticed that on the right hand side the only sponsored link was for a creationist propaganda site claiming to provide "Intelligent Design Facts". It immediately occurred to me that these people are paying for every single click that sends a visitor their way from the sponsored links. This makes them an easy target. We can hit them

We have to face the very distinct probability that within the next 30 years we are going to be able to scan and simulate the human brain to absolute precision and at that point we are going to be able to reverse engineer it. There are those predicting right now, that a Manhattan Project approach to AI could give us human level artificial intelligence in 3 to 7 years. This would be without the

Logical proof time. God can't think. Think about it. An omniscient being would know everything and as such could consider nothing. To think about something means asking questions. Something that knows everything has no questions to ask – it knows already. Ergo it cannot consider. The result of its consideration would already be known.This basically means that god can't decide. If god can't decide

It was the 8 random facts tag that's been cropping up on a lot of blogs lately. I've decided not to continue it. Here's why.I don't much like tags but I do find them interesting.

As I've said far too many times, I'm not writing much at the moment. There are loads of good reasons for this, mostly to do with enjoying the absolute lack of any demands on my time, but one of the key reasons is also that I just don't have anything to say. That's not entirely true since it's really that I just don't feel motivated to say anything. I'm seeing the nonsense in the news and other

I've not been in much of a mood to write recently. I've been taking it easy, thinking about a lot, and trying to relax and have a laugh. I came across a load of Father Ted episodes as part of the "having a laugh" efforts. If you've never seen Father Ted it's an excellent Irish comedy about a bunch of priests.

I have an interesting story to tell but unfortunately I will not be going into much detail - for legal reasons.I recently lost my job. I was forced out - fired - ostensibly for disagreeing with my boss over the subject of faith. He felt, as a catholic, it was absolutely fine for him to express a sincere distaste of all things Arab on the grounds of religion. I mentioned that I was an atheist and

I’ve just had two very pleasant visitors from the Jehovah’s witnesses. They wanted to talk to me about Jesus. “Ok, no problem, let’s have a chat”, I said.We started with a discussion of whether the bible is literally true or not. They were certain that it is and so I pointed out in their bibles the blatant contradiction between the two different versions of the creation myth in Genesis. Their

I just wanted to share something with you. I've been thinking for some time of abandoning this blog. Actually, I've been thinking about it since before I even started. I'll explain.One of the main reasons I wanted to write about religion was to encourage others to give it up.

The story is about the use of memory and cognition enhancing drugs, like Modafinil, already in use to boost mental performance. The article contains some quotes from some worried people:"If, in the future, there are cognition

A few days back I wrote a post called "It's the End of the World as we know it" in which I shared a few thoughts on what I consider to be the inevitable progress of technology towards our imminent extinction, at least as a biological species.

What is the meaning of life?Let’s get straight to the point. The question, whilst having been of sincere interest to many, even to the point of obsession, for much of human history, and having sprouted numerous often ridiculous solutions, is the wrong question to ask. Or at least it is the wrong question to ask first. An earlier question might be “is there a meaning of life” and even before that

So there I was, having a beer and a chat and some guy opened his umbrella up inside the bar!!! So what, who cares right? Apparently plenty of people do.

Somehow I’m on the radar of the local Jehovah’s Witnesses. They nabbed me outside of my house by saying (in Spanish) “You’re English right?” which I found quite interesting since I hadn’t said a single word.I know the local Nuns now understand to keep clear after two rather unfortunate incidents when they came to visit me to discuss helping the poor and I suggested that they may find all that

God is probably the square shaped peg that many reality-challenged individuals are continuously trying to hammer into the round hole left in their minds by the utter meaninglessness of their lives. This is something I find quite ironic.It’s pretty simple. If God is this absolutely everything of everythings then his existence makes you pointless. Nothing you do is outside of the plan, and upon

They are about to be stoned to death for the crime of adultery in Sudan whilst the man involved has already been acquitted.

I’m going to make a bold claim. Those living today are amongst the very last of the human race. In fact, we are so close to extinction that very many of us alive today will be around to experience it. This probably seems like an extremely stupid claim. We are, after all, greater in number than we have ever been and we have more knowledge of how to survive than ever. We are seriously working, and

There's a whole 15 hours of relatively interesting debate and presentations from some very well known scientists and philosophers including the always on form Richard Dawkins. What's great about this is not the depth of the discussion, which quite frankly surprised me in the way that even at this level people

Ive started writing some stuff which I hope to post before Monday. Nothing special, just a gentle slide back into posting and aimed towards getting more serious (like I wanted to).In the meantime here's a pretty good quote of the day which sums up the absurdity of the god of Abraham:"We must question the story logic of having an all-knowing all-powerful God, who creates faulty Humans, and then

I'm not saying I won't be blogging again but I'm in no hurry. I've been doing some travelling and a lot of reading. My mind is on other things. Writing about the benefits and reasons for atheism could become an obsession, just as much as researching the madness of religion has already. It's an obsession that I just don't have time for if I am also to have any sort of a life right now.I'm in the

My brother read my blog. He told me subsequently that I should start a new blog for everything I write that is serious to distance it from what I have on this blog that is quite frankly unequivocally insulting. He thinks that by confusing the two styles I am significantly undermining my objective of actually promoting awareness and concern of an essentially valid and serious issue. I have little

I have recently been involved in discussion with some members of a blog called Terrorism News. These bloggers were not content to discuss the topic, which was the persecution of Muslims in the UK, beyond a very limited scope which basically amounted to agreeing with their dubious primary assumption that criticism of Muslim attitudes to integration is certainly persecution. They were so unwilling

Check out this Bad Astronomy posting on some of the latest Cassini images of Saturn. I personally find this sort of image, and in fact all astronomical discovery and understanding, to be a great puzzle for any religion. I mean, if you really think things through what possible relevance can stupid rituals and ridiculous holy lands have when there is an entire universe of beauty to explore? How

I've stumbled across a blog called Terrorism News that seems to be promoting the idea that terrorism is all the fault of the west and the Jews. I have taken particular interest in a discussion about the persecution of Muslims in the UK. I've already been warned simply for disagreeing with them so I thought some of my readers and fellow bloggers may enjoy entering the discussion and setting them

I've never read any of Sam Harris' books but I am eagerly waiting for the delivery of The End of Faith that should turn up in the next day or two. Also arriving will be Richard Dawkins new book The God Delusion. So I'll have a few nights of interesting, educational reading and hopefully get that great feeling that everybody gets when they read something that lets them know that they are not alone

I'm late in covering this, but it's a must see. What happens if YouTube, essentially TV for the people and by the people, starts banning content despite no law having been infringed? If they ban content on religious grounds then what stops them banning on political grounds?

Religion is a very delicate subject and it is extremely easy to cause offence. I'm not concerned by this. I’m certain that many visitors to this blog are wondering what gives me the right to criticise their faith and try to explain to them that I think they should share similar attitudes to my own? Well, that is precisely the reason why I am writing this site. I believe we have equal rights and

If you want to see Iranian style justice then go here and watch the video. It's very small and low quality but it is extremely brutal.

There’s a wonderful news story on the BBC showing just what a mad fantasy world the religious think they live and die in. Apparently Catholics believe in a state of limbo, somewhere between heaven and hell. They also traditionally believe that babies that die before they have been baptised spend eternity in limbo – probably a punishment for being so disrespectful to god as to die of their own

I don't like using left and right terms as I think that ones opinions on such a broad topic of life cannot be so easily polarised. Yet when it comes to nuclear arms proliferation and the spread of fascism I can most certainly be considered to belong to the right. And the left deeply worry me.Over at the BBC they have a "have your say" comments section regarding whether or not North Korea should

For a time it baffled me that anybody actually believes in any of the religions. I couldn't figure out if there was some point I was missing or some fact that I had failed to grasp. To be perfectly honest, when I was first learning about religion I didn't seriously think that anybody believed in it.

This is an interesting read over at The American Thinker.
