My presentation to the Humanists of Houston, 2013/02/16, recorded by Steve Jordan and Vic Wang. Most of my references came from this creationist website: http://www.genesispark.com/ I probably should have mentioned here how there was never any unfossilized original biological material, and certainly no undecomposed blood cells confirmed found in any non-avian dinosaurs. If anyone wants […]
Why did I think I could watch this video about Fish Tongue Eating Isopods?
Warning! Do not be fooled by the cartoon fish.It is not for the squeamish. Thanks to Meg of The Thinking Atheist for the scare… This is Meg with a video for you to share the next time one of your friends starts in about how a god must have made the world because look at […]
Showing Solidarity with Black Nonbelievers when you aren’t Black
Last weekend, Aron and I went to a presentation about the history of Black Freethought by Alix Jules hosted by Houston Oasis. Right now the Houston Atheists boast the largest group of freethinkers in Texas with a population of 2,078. Salute! We happen to know Alix from being members of DFW’s Fellowship of Freethought the largest group […]
The North Texas Secular Convention
‘Activate Your Activism’ was my speech at UT Dallas last Saturday. http://youtu.be/9KsjYagTC_E This is my report on how the Religious Right continues to undermine education in Texas.
Texas’ cryptozoology conferences
The Texas Bigfoot Research Conservancy is sponsoring an all day event -from 9:00am to 7:00pm Saturday March 16th at the Fort Worth Convention Center. Not kidding. As a former sasquatch myself, (Luna, New Mexico 1988) I’m really surprised that I wasn’t asked to speak at this convention. Especially since there really haven’t been that many […]
If he’s serious, he’s seriously insane
Is it merely an irrational assumption? Or a deeply disturbing delusion? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sIRjxQIYOj4 How would you reason with this guy? Could you? I can’t help but imagine a waterphone playing in the background as he whispers. I often wonder about people like this. Did his religion drive him crazy? Or is he religious because he’s already […]
Pope Palpatine
I’m gonna miss the old sith lord. He was the best pope atheists could hope for. He started out as a Hitler youth actually wearing a Nazi uniform. As a Cardinal, he famously conspired to conceal sex crimes against children for the sake of the church. As pope, he addressed an audience in an AIDS […]
If you’re in Dallas this weekend…

Several good speakers are there, Greta Christina, Jerry DeWitt, Zack Kopplin, David Smalley of DogmaDebate, and Brother Sam Singleton, the Atheist Evangelist -to name a few. It’s a […]
another Godless documentary
This is not the same ‘Godless’ as the documentary made by Staise Gonzalez. It’s a different piece with the same name. A couple years ago, a Canadian film crew came to record our Fellowship of Free Thought meeting for a documentary on atheists. We skipped Skepticon that year to be involved. I didn’t feel it […]
