humarashid asked: Your response to welcome-to-the-pride about that idiotic Santorum quote about women in the military was spectacular. BRAVO. You get all the golf-claps! :D

[Lazen’s] class assignment was to build a molecule using one of those modeling kits with the colorful balls and plastic connectors. Many kids would probably throw together a little H2O and call it a day — but not Clara. She randomly pieced together a combination of oxygen, nitrogen and carbon atoms to create a molecule her chemistry teacher, Kenneth Boehr, had never seen before....

Report: Watching Episode of 'Downton Abbey' Counts... →
WASHINGTON—According to a report from the U.S. Department of Education released Thursday, watching a single episode of the British TV series Downton Abbey is the cultural and educational equivalent of reading an entire book. “It’s a period piece with British accents and drama that hinges on each character’s place within an aristocratic peerage system, so needless to say, viewing...

A wrongful death suit could still be filed, however, if the mother died.
So, a man could sue if his wife died, but a woman wouldn’t be able sue on her own behalf if she is damaged. Gosh, Kansas, it’s almost as if you are saying...

I couldn’t actually make it through the whole thing because Maggie Gallagher makes me want to barf, but it’s an interesting read if you have more intestinal fortitude than I do.

“It’s just entertainment” or “but it’s a fantasy world!”
Fuck that.
Why "there's no market for it" is no excuse:
I see people all the time who, when asked why there aren’t more movies, books, and so on for women and minorities, say things like, “Well, it’s just not marketable. There’s no audience for a [movie/book] about [whatever].” Fuck you.
Marketing isn’t about giving people what they want. Marketing is about TELLING people what they want and making them buy it. The...

In other news, I heard something on the radio this morning that almost made me barf. The morning hosts on the local station were talking about how great Tim Tebow is and what a nice guy and how someone, someday is going to be a very lucky lady.
Right. I wouldn’t wish that vile, woman-hating piece of garbage on anyone.
Men like that are seriously dangerous to women, and it makes me...

So… nothing a child thinks is valid until they’re past the age of 14? Would you say the same thing if statistics said this is also the age most children become atheist? I agree we should teach options, but kids do have beliefs of their own.
Children are born atheists.
But you’re right. Kids have...

Rep. John Fleming (R-La.) has deleted his Facebook post linking to an article in The Onion about a fictional Planned Parenthood “Abortionplex.”
In a Facebook status on Friday, Fleming alerted his followers to The Onion’s May 18, 2011 article, “Planned Parenthood Opens $8 Billion Abortionplex” and wrote “More on Planned Parenthood, abortion by the wholesale.” Fleming’s spokesman Doug Sachtleben...

lostbetweendreamsandfears replied to your photo: Age at which Americans become Christian …
My mom and I were talking about this just yesterday. I said that if they want to teach children the bible, they should teach them a bit of every religion (and atheism too), so that the kids can decide what they want to believe in.
That’s how I feel about it. My partner and I are both atheists,...
