I’ve Found Religion
November 15, 2009 by Brandon | 8 Comments
That’s right. I’ve come to the conclusion that a higher power does exist through careful observation of the natural world around me. It’s become clear that there must have been a first cause for all of this, and I know who that first cause is now…
Ceiling Cat.
And so, I’ve decided to purchase a domain, www.churchofceilingcat.org, in order to spread the gud lolz of Ceiling Cat. Currently the domain is propagating, but be sure to check back shortly to see what the heck I decide to do with the site.

Think Or Be Damned
October 12, 2009 by Brandon | 3 Comments
I came across a site that has a bunch of political cartoons dating back to the 1860’s through the turn of the century that discuss evolution.
A specific cartoon amazed me because it seems as though it could have been produced today rather than in 1899.
In the picture, men of science waving a flag reading “THINK OR BE DAMNED” aim a gatling gun titled “Enlightenment” toward a mob of pasters, priests, monks, and other religious folk, who are armed with primitive, dark age weapons and carry a flag reading “BELIEVE OR BE DAMNED.”
The barrels of the gun are individually named “History,” “Archaeology,” “Evolution,” and “Geology,” while the boxes of ammunition lying around are labled “Historical Facts,” “Scientific Facts,” and “Rational Religion.”
The religious mob ignorantly charges forward, but ultimately they’ll be mowed down by scientific progress. They don’t even stand a chance.
Again, this is a cartoon that was made back in 1899 and was depicting a battle between science and religion then, where scientists were killing superstition with the most devastating weapon of the day, yet we have people trying to tell us that this conflict is new.
Anyway, I thought it was amusing so I figured I’d share it.

Simon Cowell More Famous Than God
September 24, 2009 by Brandon | 2 Comments
A survey of children under the age of 10 in the UK has asked who the most famous person in the world is. Their answer? Simon Cowell, followed by God.
That’s right. Simon Cowell is more famous than God. Of course, we’ll need another survey to see who is more of a dickhead; Simon comes close I’m sure, but God still can’t escape that pesky Old Testament crap he used to pull several thousand years ago. Mass genocide, rape, and pillage tend to stick with you no matter how many times you sacrifice yourself to yourself.

What is Fractal Wrongness?
The state of being wrong at every conceivable scale of resolution. That is, from a distance, a fractally wrong person's worldview is incorrect; and furthermore, if you zoom in on any small part of that person's worldview, that part is just as wrong as the whole worldview.
