Violent video games don’t cause actual violence

Modern Warfare 2 has a level where you play as a terrorist committing a massacre on civilians.

Mohamed Atta never once played Modern Warfare 2.

“At the core of real conservatism is a distinction between theory and practice, a deep resistance to ideology, a respect for free inquiry and the philosophic spirit, a respect for social stability and coherence, a moderation in governance and a deliberation in action.”

““The richest three people in the world possess a combined fortune greater than the total GDP of the forty-eight poorest countries in the world put together. Let’s suppose we want to provide the world’s total population with a quantifiable access to nutrition, say 2,700 calories a day, as well as access to drinkable water and basic health resources. This will add up, more or less, to the amount of money that the inhabitants of Europe and the United States spend every year on perfumes.””

Front cover, Bangor (Maine) Daily News, Wednesday, November 4, 2009.

There are people who celebrate keeping people who love each other apart. There are people who make it their pathetic life’s work to keep two people who belong together from not being together. There are people who revel in not letting others be genuinely happy, and making them feel like second-rate citizens in their own country, for the want of “preserving tradition.”

These people are assholes.

Islamic countries push a global 'blasphemy' law

Thu, 29 Oct 2009 22:24:33 -0400

Islamic countries push a global 'blasphemy' law:

atheistramblings:

The Organization of the Islamic Council (which is made up of representatives from 57 countries) wants to make the enforcement of blasphemy laws legally binding via an international convention or treaty. This would require signatories to limit religiously offensive language or speech. The OIC wants “legal prohibition of publication of material that negatively stereotypes, insults or uses offensive language” on issues regarded by religious followers as “sacred or inherent to their dignity as human beings”.

So you wouldn’t be able to discuss evolution, history prior to 6,000 years ago, women’s rights, or the pros and cons of beer volcanoes and stripper factories vs a large number of virgins in the after life.

Fuck no!!! Freedom of speech now, freedom of speech forever. Good thing we have a secular constitution in the USA that guarantees such rights.

friendlyatheist:

Epic Win!!!

Posted the above to facebook. I got the following reply from a college friend:

“Yes, evolution is a theory.”, page 6. At the end of the day you still need faith no matter what you believe.

Funny how from the whole page the evolution is a theory sentence is the only thing that was read (obviously ignoring the context). Here is my reply, which is nothing more than what followed the previous quotation of page 6.

Yes, a theory. Just like gravity, heliocentrism or the idea that germs cause many diseases (pathogenic theory).

“Faith” is an unnecessary concept in science (and in reality). Science has something better called evidence, which is superior in every way to “faith”.

It is definitely easier to interpret words based on cultural, superstitious or uninformed biases than actually trying to understand what is actually being said. How sad…

Banning Abortion Does Not Reduce Abortions | Unreasonable Faith

Wed, 14 Oct 2009 23:04:32 -0400

Banning Abortion Does Not Reduce Abortions | Unreasonable Faith:

The Guttmacher Institute’s survey found abortion occurs at roughly equal rates in regions where it is legal and regions where it is highly restricted. It did note that improved access to contraception had cut the overall abortion rate over the last decade. But unsafe abortions, primarily illegal, have remained almost static…. Every year, an estimated 70,000 women die as a result of unsafe abortion – leaving nearly a quarter of a million children without a mother – and 5m develop complications.
