No one, in the world's whole history, ever attempted to substantiate a truth by a miracle. Truth scorns the assistance of miracle. Nothing but falsehood ever attested itself by signs and wonders. No miracle ever was performed, and no sane man ever thought he had performed one, and until one is performed, there can be no evidence of the existence of any power superior to, and independent of nature.
Robert Ingersoll, Ingersoll's Lectures, pg. 50, 1878.

Atheists don’t get presents for Christmas

posted by Shinka in Freethought |

PZ links to this audiofile that was originally posted on YouTube.
A kid comes out to his mother, and she doesn’t take it too well. At first she doesn’t understand how someone who has been confirmed can stop believing in God, and then threatens to take him to church every week and not give him any presents for Christmas.
Kind of odd that the kid would record this, but here it is nonetheless.
