Atheist offers to send letters post-Rapture

I just thought this was funny.

Best-selling Author Will 'Prove' God's Existence

Well, this should be good. Ever since I saw that banana video with these two geniuses, I've been questioning being an atheist, I'm sure this debate will make me a believer once and for all.

I hope when he's done proving the existence of god, that someone remembers to quote The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy.

The argument goes something like this: 'I refuse to prove that I exist,' says God, 'for proof denies faith, and without faith I am nothing.' "'But,' says Man, 'The Babel fish is a dead giveaway, isn't it? It could not have evolved by chance. It proves you exist, and so therefore, by your own arguments, you don't. QED.' "'Oh dear,' says God, 'I hadn't thought of that,' and promptly vanished in a puff of logic.

Unfortunately, I think we'll discover a real Babel fish before Kirk Cameron says anything that even suggests the existence of god, much less proves it.

Customer service and faith clash at registers

Well, I guess it's nice to see that being an unreasonable idiot isn't reserved for pharmacists. Also, I'd be interested to see how many people who thought it was perefectly ok for pharmacists to refuse to fill prescriptions because of their religous beliefs complain when someone refuses to scan their bacon at the grocery store. I think all these Muslim cashiers should be required to get their prescriptions filled at pharmacies staffed by lunatic Christians, and those Christian pharmacists should have to shop at grocery stores with crazy Muslim cashiers. Maybe then, as each complains that the other shouldn't take a job that they can't do completely, a light bulb will go on. Probably not, but it's possible.

Anyway, the most ridiculous thing about this story to me is, who the fuck doesn't like bacon? If your religion doesn't let you eat bacon, it's time to find a new religion.
