The government of Australia has apparently lost it’s frakking mind. It has a secret list of nearly 1400 sites that can get Australian website owners fined $11K (AUD) for linking to them and there’s now a report out that the number of censored sites could expand to 10K.

“The name Sci Fi has been associated [...]

We’re not just written about in it, but appear on the cover itself.
The Secular Coalition has the entire article in PDF over at it’s site and you should really go read it.
I especially liked how the author of [...]
Atheist billboards and bus signs are spreading like a wildfire across North America so I suppose it’s about time some Christian said something so intensely stupid you just know they haven’t given two seconds of thought to what they said.
The Christian I write about is Bryan Fischer, executive director of Idaho Values Alliance, who issued [...]
If only atheists would just convert to Christianity or at least sit down and shut up about being atheists then we’d all prance gayly into a bright future of unicorns, rainbows, and butterflies. Won’t that be just grand? — Austin Cline
