    Sam Harris' LA Times op-ed on Sarah Palin

    I love this. And Palin scares the hell out of me. I don't think very highly of cultists, and much of what I've read about her "church", not to mention her constanting labelling everything that fits her agenda as "God's work" is frightening.

In my opinion, speaking primarily about mainstream Protestantism in America, it's not only paternalistic, it's woefully misogynist. Women in the two...

    Religious Influence On Secularism?

    In my opinion, a secular society is a happy society. Religious beliefs are intense and person. For many people, they dictate voting practise, chosen friendships, lines of work, personality traits -- everything. Because they mean so much, I think it's hard for people to look past them when...
