The Atheist Geek — Wed, 08 Sep 2010 04:55:52 PDT

I’ve been looking for articles on atheists and atheism from the Watchtower Society for a while now, and I was always disappointed that they didn’t have much to say.

Ex-Jehovah’s Witnesses who really dug into the Society’s old Creation Book (like myself) will appreciate Blatant misquotes in the Origin of Life booklet. The rest of the web site looks like it might be interesting for ex-Witnesses, too … if they speak it’s language, that is. But this article is in English. Thanks to Copernic [...]

Review: Inception

The Atheist Geek — Sun, 18 Jul 2010 11:05:19 PDT

DiCaprio’s gonna need to change his Huggies if he stands there much longer! Like most of you, I was hooked by the buzz over Inception. Shots of Leonardo DiCaprio talking about entering people’s dreams, dudes fist fighting while floating in air, and buildings colliding over a cool soundtrack made my eyebrows go up. It was [...]

So tough nipples. Here we go. Imagine this little guy with a blue tie and a pack of smokes, [...]

Ex-Mormon Life After Apostasy I always found the similarities between Jehovah’s Witnesses and Mormons quite interesting, especially since so many ex-Witnesses seem to think that the Mormons have it better than the Witnesses. Ex-Witnesses will find the ex-Mormon’s responses to be easily adaptable. AUDIO: Blatant Blunders of the Watchtower Society Bittorrent download source! Some MP3 [...]
