What I've Been Reading
God Is Not Great After reading and loving numerous Dawkins books, I was recommended this title written by Christopher Hitchens. I enjoyed it very much, but it is important to note that while Hitchens and Dawkins are in agreement on most all matters that are important to the argument against religion, their writing styles and angles of attack are very different in my eyes. I believe that to be...

Dragon Age: Origins
At long last, I have finally completed the whole main quest of Dragon Age: Origins, all of the in-game DLC, and all of the stand-alone DLC. As with all BioWare games, it has a very captivating setting with characters you fall in love with very quickly. The internet-folk sometimes complain that BioWare’s other massive franchise isn’t customizable enough, but I would argue that DA:O has...

About Atheism and Politics
I have been an outed Atheist since my early teen years. Recently, I have become more vocal about my active disbelief in a god and an afterlife in any form. When I see my country continuing down the route of policy dictated by belief structures that go out of their way to ignore the truth, I become very, very sad. I have decided that I cannot, in good conscience, vote for anyone who will...

My New Camera →
As an adult, I have never owned a device dedicated to taking photographs. I have borrowed some from friends for class. I have used my mother’s for a family reunion. I even had one for work-related purposes that was purchased and owned by the company I worked for. Up until today, I have never owned a camera of my very own. I went and bought a Nikon Coolpix L120 today, and I’m very...

I am truly heart broken. Steve Jobs changed the world over and over. Cancer fucking sucks.

What I've Been Reading
God, No! God, No! is Penn Jillette’s latest book. Half of it is filled with very funny stories while the other half is made up of arguments and stories about why religion is bad while atheism makes for better and happier people. I liked it a lot. In fact, there wasn’t a single part of the book that I didn’t like. Despite very much enjoying the content, I feel like the editing...
