Dutch Comedian Insults Islam, Only Gets Funnier When Confronted About It

Yeah, I already posted today, I know! This was too awesome not share with you folks though. The best soundbite I took from this is,“Do you think that when I put on the TV, I don’t see things that annoy me? That I don’t feel insulted now and then? But one develops a shield to deal with these things. That’s what you do in a free society, because you’re inevitably confronted with things you don’t like. The religious are very bad at this because they tend to believe they have a monopoly on the truth

Atheist Life Hacks: How To Have Too Many Guilty Pleasures

Recently, I’ve been getting a lot of incredible compliments about my blog, my writing and everything else that I do as Godless Mom. I can’t even begin to express to you people what they all mean to me… writing is my passion and to have total strangers tell me daily how much they love mine, is indescribable.I’ve seen a lot of people let their head inflate though, even over just one or two nice comments and I hate that bullshit. People who take themselves too seriously are dull and boring. So, in

Madonna and Satan Set Their Sights On The Destruction Of Good

MadonnaHere’s a little fact about GM that could potentially drive a wedge between you and me: I loathe Madonna. It’s not because I find her offensive. It’s because she’s talentless and annoying. She can’t even fucking sing and somehow, because she twerked before we twerked, she’s a fucking legend. There’s nothing that she’s done that’s entertaining in any way more than a fart joke is or a boob slip. Can’t. Stand. Madonna.So, you love her. I get it. I mean, hey, the first person to dry hump a dud

14 Ways To Destroy Religion With Your Kids

*Blank stare*So, I read this.Don’t look at me like that. You know I can’t help myself.Interestingly, there are some good points in Natasha’s post. Actually, there are some brilliant points. Credit where credit is goddamned due, no holy. However, Natasha ruins the whole thing in her second point.Oh, but let me show you how.Mrs. Crain says,At an age-appropriate level, we discussed how some people just don’t want to believe in God because they want to live without any (moral) rules; how some people

Atheist Life Hacks: How To Protect Your Kids From Your Religious In-Laws

Godless Mom is lucky enough to have unbelievers as in-laws, and the only significant other I ever had who had religious parents was keeping them safely tucked away in a crumbling town in Iraq. I have never had to deal with preachy in-laws, but I can tell you that if I had to, Godless Mom wouldn’t make it easy on them.GM Disclaimer: Use of these methods could result in any or all of the following: Being disowned, shunning, loss of your significant other, and bad feelings.Here’s how I would deal w

Follow Friday: A Nigerian Unbeliever, Mr. Doe and The Atheist Minority

Happy Friday free thinkers!Before we get started on looking at some of my favourite online people, I wanted to remind you that I started a Patreon yesterday. You can see the ad for it in my sidebar promising you a dryer sheet in the mail. That’s just one of the super fun rewards you can get. You can also Skype me with video and I will stare at you, scowling, flipping the bird, saying nothing until you, unable to handle it anymore, exclaim, “You’re not normal, Courtney” and hang up.You know, fres

Atheist Life Hacks: How To Avoid Looking At A Sparkly Banana Hammock

When you’re young and you’ve just started a new marketing firm, you can tend to be naive about who you take on as a client. The day I learned this, I was humbled. Indeed, as I sat in a dim room with my boyfriend, a strange, naked man, Enya playing in the background, punching myself in the temples, I was very humbled. And on the verge of a goddamned breakdown, no holy.It was a lovely summer morning when my boyfriend and I headed out to meet our new, prospective client. He’d explained to us that h

Atheists, Is It Time We Ease Up On Our Persecution of Christians?

You can’t really get out of bed anymore without hearing piles of Jeebots insist they are being persecuted all over the world. Writhing together like swarms of morons, they cry, “Why did you kick God out of school?” and “We’re an oppressed minority!”. Sure, they are in actual fact, the vast majority in the USA and many other countries. Sure there are more churches than schools in many places. Nevermind that Christ-lovers can freely marry, have never been forced to sit at the back of the bus, and

Atheist Life Hacks: 6 Different Styles Of Debating Theists

As Godless Dad always says, if you mess with the donkey, you get the ass.When theists successfully draw me into debate, they awake a sleeping donkey, and often get the ass… but, they also get some other personalities. Check out my wardrobe of debating styles:1. The Hippie Princess – When you catch me in this mood, you might find it comparable to running your fingers through Abbie Hoffman’s Yippie fur sweater. It’s warm, it’s fuzzy, and all it wants is peace. I break out tactics like calling you

A Prayer To God

Sup, God? It’s me, Godless Mom.I am not a believer in you at all, based solely on the lack of evidence to support your existence. I assume, because you are said to be a loving, merciful and benevolent God, that you have no problem, whatsoever, understanding that position.With that said, I do have some questions for you that I’d like answered, beyond the usual “mysterious ways” explanation, because frankly, it’s not winning you any more supporters and with atheism rising steadily, I would also as

Why Do Atheists Hate God?

Godless Mom woke up to 4 or 5 Jeebots spamming her mentions on Twitter this morning, all filled with hateful Christian rhetoric and so, I am in a foul fucking mood. Most days, it doesn’t bother me, but every once in a while, the horseshit climbs nose-high and it’s all I can smell.It’s a good thing for you, because it means I’m going to sacrifice a Jeebot at the altar of Godlessmom.com and you’re probably going to get a kick out of it. At least, that’s my aim.I’ve chosen for you today, a Mr. Don

Here’s Where You Can Stick Your Bible After You Take An Atheist To The Sistine Chapel

When you open a blog post with, “Not trying to start a fight here, but this probably will.”, you’ve already lost. You’ve lost at life, you’ve lost any right to call yourself a writer, and you should lose the privilege of posting to the Chicago Now Blog. This is just the absolute most mindless, uncreative and useless opening line of any blog post, ever, including the tried and tested, “Sorry I haven’t written for a while.” horseshit. I may be an atheist, but I am a writer before that, and this sh
