One thing I’ve noticed with Christians in prison. Not all of them, but I would say probably the majority. They use it as a device to make themselves feel better about what they’ve done in their lives. Instant “forgiveness” by just reciting some magic words and reading a […]
One thing I’ve always found about people who are on the fence, and come over to atheism, is that they didn’t understand much about the positions of it. They maybe had this vague opinion that atheists were childish people, rebelling against authority. But when they start learning, they […]

Besides the obvious, another thing that being skeptical of God’s existence taught me was: being skeptical of everything. There is so much nonsense floating around in the culture, so much popular knowledge, stuff that people just “know” is true and accept without even knowing how or why. For […]
The store of cain and abel takes up just sixteen lines of the bible. It is arguable history’s most famous murder. But the store is silent about one key detail : The weapon cain used to kill his brother. was it a rock ? or a sharpened stone […]
This isn’t directed just at religious people, but they do seem to be the ones who most have this trait. Stop being so offended! A challenge to your belief is not necessarily an insult. Further, you should WELCOME challenges to your beliefs. I know I do. And I […]
Yesterday I was at work having a discussion with two religious guys (both of a different religion), and we were talking about how people use their beliefs to find a good thing and use it to change. We all agreed that all three of us had done […]

One of the most difficult things I have ever had to deal with is : what does love mean ? Is it just a fleeting emotion ? Is it a predetermined destination ? Or could it simply be a choice we arbitrarily make along the way, without rhyme […]

One of the charges I’m always responding to is that, as an atheist, I must be hostile to religion. Well, I’m hostile to some of the things that people do in the name of religion. I’m hostile to the idea shared by many religious people that they should […]
When I was at WSP (Walla Walla) I grew to hate the address : 1313 13th ST. Many unfortunate men have found themselves behind” the walls”, and they know all too well the darkness of that place ! When those beige bars come banging closed , and you […]
It’s difficult to get guys in prison to want to change, to want to take responsibility and the initiative to better themselves. As I’ve said, I think religion actually gets in the way of this because the “good” is defined by a holy book, and all too often, […]

One problem I have with people using religion to try to better themselves in prison is that it doesn’t automatically result in change. In fact, often times, the Christian message is (or becomes, rightly or wrongly): You’re just great the way you are. God loves you. Now just […]
When I was a little boy my father told me a story about stealing watermelon from a local farm when he was a teenager. He said ,” We used to run into a neighbors watermelon patch and each one of would snatch as big a melon as we […]
I have been accused of being hostile to religion, usually because I will defend atheism and challenge religion. Which I do not think is hostility; I think a free exchange of ideas is a good thing, as long the participants can be civil and act like adults. Further, […]

Many people accuse atheists of just being negative (you’re defined by what you don’t believe) and having no moral or ethical alternative to offer. But like most beliefs about atheism, this just isn’t true. There is humanism. It has a long tradition, going back to the Ancient Greeks […]

I’ve noticed that religious guys in prison are kind of like religious guys everywhere: they’re out-and-out victims of the confirmation bias. That is, they find a belief that seems to work for them, and run with it. No attempt is made to look at this belief critically. If […]

I’ve often found that religious people, especially the ones who have tunnel vision about their belief, are depriving themselves of so much more than they could possible realize. No, moral thought does NOT begin and end with Western monotheism. Anyone who thinks so should look into the writings […]
Recently a Christian guy got upset and accused me of “pushing” my atheism on others. But all I was doing was speaking to someone else, very cordially and reasonably about atheist societies in Europe that have lower crime rates and general better standards of living than very religious […]
The other day, a guy I was talking with made a comment about how atheists are all selfish (he didn’t know I’m an atheist). It’s just taken for granted, but it’s simply a thoughtless cliche, as ignorant and insultign as saying “Jews are greedy.” Now, I’m not personally […]
In Texas there is only 5 Muslim chaplains who have to serve 30 prisons, and 102 ut of the total 121 TDCJ chaplains are Christian. Here in Washington, we are having the same issues as in Texas. Particularly where I am at in Stafford Creek. This article hits […]
