My Plan for Making My Death as Fun as Possible

By Adam Minihan | July 23, 2014

Thing is, I really want to see this. So I’ll have to fake my death and disguise myself as a mourner. Plus, I get to hear all the nice things people say about you after you die–till they hit the pinata.

A hopeful sign

The red was painted by ISIS goons.  It’s their shorthand for “Christians” and is meant to mark Christians for death or expulsion.  The black was written by Muslims opposed to ISIS.  It means “We are all…” (Remember that Arabic is read from right to left).

…is giving away the farm!  Today’s your chance to load up on some NFP swag.  I offered to give away a free Sam Rocha with my autograph on his face (now with natural maple flavor and imported from Canada!), but Simcha said no.  Then I offered to sign a copy of Forming Intentional Disciples “Sherry…

It Stands for “Nazarene”

It’s used to mark the homes of Christians marked for robbery and death by ISIS.  We are all Chaldeans now. Pray for the Christians of Iraq. We owe every last one of them safe harbor in the United States.  Every last one. Especially we Catholics who supported the war that has resulted in this catastrophe.…

Brights: Our Moral and Intellectual Superiors!

By Adam Minihan | July 22, 2014

Richard Dawkins thinks children should be taken away from religious parents by the state wants to banish fairy stories, but he’s just fine with “mild pedophilia”. The more he opens his mouth, the more I agree with Vox Day that he and the people who regard him as a guiding light give every indication that…
