The Truth @ The Spin Factor

Atomizing the truth (An academic journal).

How Religion Works

It’s quite simple, people quote ancient texts like the Bible. When an inconsistency is found by a non-believer, theists make a new claim that is not falsifiable that resolves the inconsistency.
For example:
Non-Believer: Jesus said that you are either with him or you are against him. That’s a false dichotomy… Why would he make such a [...]

Will Barack Obama appoint an atheist to the Supreme Court?

Supreme Court Justice John Paul Stevens will be retiring and Nation magazine contributor Marc Cooper argues that it’s time to nominate a nonbeliever to the Supreme Court.
Given that there are currently six Catholics and two Jews, and one Protestant (Stevens), the chance that the new nominee is an atheist is slim. President Obama will feel pressure to [...]

Arizona ACLU misleading on immigration law

The ACLU of Arizona considers Arizona SB1070 unconstitutional. The ACLU of Arizona claims that the new Arizona immigration law is unnecessary, but that does not make it unconstitutional.

Did Glenn Beck Rape Muhammad in Arizona in 2010?

No.
Muhammad raped Sarah Palin in 1990.

Kevin Trudeau sells “The Secret” Knock-Off

Kevin Trudeau is now selling a “The Secret” knock-off called “Your wish is your command”. I think this shows that you can be found to be a scam-artist with books like “Natural Cures ‘They’ Don’t Want You to Know About” and continue stealing money from people.

Boobquake science is flawed.

Their science is flawed. It would take hundreds of years of immodest clothing to shift the tectonic plates enough to cause an earthquake. Good try though. Personally I’m hoping for another earthquake here or in Iran.

Xenophobia and Domain Name Changes

David Coursey, writing for PC World is concerned that domain name endings will now be allowed to contain non-latin characters, facilitating the internet for non-English speakers.
This is the kind of paranoia self-proclaimed conservatives like to outrage over.

Did Glenn Beck Rape and Murder a Young Girl in 1990?

Glenn Beck, the Mormon Radio Personality has not yet uttered a word on the nasty rumors that are floating around.
I heard Glenn Beck raped and murdered a young girl in 1990. It’s just a rumor, but the allegation was made, and there’s no denial from Glenn Beck. Some people are saying that Glenn Beck’s silence [...]

Ten New Commandments

As highlighted in Richard Dawkins’s The God Delusion, this is a list of 10 commandments which are demonstrably better than those found in the Old Testament.

Mexicans are Americans

Mexico is in the continent/s of America, therefore Mexicans are Americans. Not by nationality, but by mere geography. The same is true for Brazilians, Canadians, etc.
It might interest you to learn that Alexander Hamilton who wrote some of the Federalist Papers, used American in both senses of the word (continent/s and nation).
Also, United States of [...]
