Andrew Bakes and Children Don’t Think
Andrew retells the story of how his acquisition of a new vehicle went totally sideways. Peaches and I disagree about thinking and feeling. She’s convinced that kids can’t think because they don’t have language. I’m outraged but manage to remain civil and professional.

Trump Can Be President But He Can’t Teach Sunday School

It’s Not Me, It’s You
Atheists, I’m going to leave you now. You’re boring. I’m tired of childish conversations. David Bentley helped me make the decision to quit featuring drivel on my blog. A truly profound atheist is someone who has taken the trouble to understand, in its most sophisticated forms, the belief he or she rejects, and to understand […]
