Watching videos like the one embedded below make me feel quite fortunate to have grown up in the modern Ireland, where a staunch Catholic upbringing wasn’t the ‘common sense’ approach to take. Whenever I hear a disgustingly nostalgic account about the ‘Catholic Ireland’ that was left behind, I think about the testimonies of people like [...]

Quite the dearth of content around here these days – can we blame the recession like everyone else? A few moments ago I received the following e-mail from a dear friend of mine: To: Sully From: [removed to protect the polite] Subject: Funny Was gonna post this on Facebook but then realised I’m friends with [...]

Friday Music, that’s when we post music videos from YouTube, right? Well, this is a video from YouTube with some music in it… It also happens to be one of the best videos I’ve watched online in some time, as it eviscerates anybody who resorts to calling their opponent in a debate ‘closed-minded’ for not [...]

As a fan of Bill Maher’s Real Time series on HBO, I’ve been eagerly anticipating Religulous since I first caught wind of its existence well over a year ago. While Maher’s paranoid delusions about western medicine hardly make him the ideal poster-child for atheism, it’s always nice to see a witty and outspoken non-theist in [...]

Apologies for the puerile nature of this one, but I like to tie my Friday Music into the kind of atheistic/religious discourse that I find compelling, and this just happened to be the first song that popped into my head when I sat down to honour this noblest tradition of our blog. Embedded below is [...]

I’ve been meaning to post about the religious response to the successful crash landing of the commercial jet on the Hudson river since it happened, but it seems that James Randi has beat me to it. If you’re just here for the straight-talk – skip to the 2 minute mark.

This Friday music, I’m finally getting around to posting about Greydon Square – an atheistic rapper who has been featured on popular sceptical podcasts such as Skepticality and Skeptic’s Guide to the Universe. Rather than regurgitating what I learnt about him from the aforelinked, I’ll let you look into it yourself if you’re interested (Skepticality [...]

Phew! Just made it! Unlike my esteemed blogging-colleagues, I like to tease the readers by making them wade through a bit of waffle before getting to the good stuff – and the video embedded below is the kind of thing that needs a preface. I used to be a big fan of punk rockers NOFX, [...]
