“God’s Not Dead” Is More About Make Believe Atheists Than A God

May 13, 2015 · by Patrick Benson · in Atheism

A friend challenged me to watch the film God’s Not Dead with the hope that I would be convinced by the film that atheism is wrong. I watched the film and found it very interesting, but not at all convincing….

Atheism != Morality

February 18, 2015 · by Patrick Benson · in Atheism

The Chapel Hill shootings are a terrible tragedy. Three people were murdered, and it is possible that they were murdered for being Muslims. The man arrested for the murders is Craig Stephen Hicks and he is an atheist and supposedly…

Extremists are the Tail of the Dog

January 14, 2015 · by Patrick Benson · in Atheism

The Charlie Hebdo shooting that resulted in the death of twelve people is big news for the moment. Part of the coverage I have seen, heard or read about centers on how the gunmen are not true practitioners of Islam….

December 24, 2014 · by Patrick Benson · in Atheism

God Is Not Pro Life

June 29, 2014 · by Patrick Benson · in Atheism

I saw a bumper sticker that read “God is pro-life!” Now if you believe in a god, in particular the Judeo-Christian god mythos, then the bumper sticker’s intended message is that because god is pro-life you must also be pro-life…

Morals Come From Being Human, Not From The Divine

October 13, 2013 · by Patrick Benson · in Atheism

I am considering changing this blog’s focus to be on atheism, because I believe that in the United States of America organized religion is causing more harm than good. Religious people are not the problem, and I certainly want to…
